I think half of this is also up to fans interpreting Matts statements all too positive. The 'next time' from Assassin obviously was for the next couple of gigs. From Matts perspective he delivered on the promise. He never made explicit what 'next time' he was referring to. It's the fans that have the hope/expectation he meant Belfast. Just like the Defector/Brussels statement. The fan says: Play Defector!. Matt says: Brussels, we play in Brussels. So the fan hopes/expects he'll play it in Brussels the next week. Whilst from Matts perspective he just meant to say that they've played it in Brussels already (last year). Sure there's situations where they've just plain didn't deliver on their promises. But a part of it is also fan expectation/interpretation.

If there's complaints about Muse stretching time because of changing guitars, you should never go to a Mumford and Sons concert. I saw them last year, and everytime they switched a guitar it took them at least a minute, if not more. They also bantered a lot more, with one exceptionally long break with one of the band members trying to come up with dutch football players that played in the Premier League. Compared to that, Muse plays a really tight show with one song following the other. And barely any banter, which to me is a good thing.

As they've been changing the encore a bit since the Bercy Gigs, I would actually really like to see this: (main set) Uprising Knights (w/ MWAH) -- The Globalist (Drones) -- Mercy (with riffs) Take a Bow

So after two nights no OoS they play PiB CE and Bliss. Though the length of the setlists hasn't improved over the US setlists, the rotation most definitely did. And it's all for the better. Muse has a great catalogue of seven albums, so they can and should play more of them.
-
In stadiums they played 24 full songs. In arena's they played 20. That's all excluding filler like Isolated System/Drones/Monty Jam/etc. Excluding all the filler this tour they generally play 16 full songs. So comparing to a stadium tour is a bit unfair. Though seen as they probably won't even do a stadium tour with Drones, all the more reason to go all out on the arena gigs. And play a bit more then for a festival. You know, like they would usually do.
-
So far it's Map/Hysteria, Bliss/PIB, Resistance/SS and AP/USoE rotations. Three of those are pretty fair imo. Resistance/SS rotation is utter bullshit though.

According to this article they're playing in Iceland 6th of August. Tickets are supposed to be sold from 8 march apparantley

Undisclosed. Hate all you want, but it's the song that got me into Muse and I still love it. And I really like the 'Exorcize the demon from your hearts'-line.
-
Prelude into Starlight is such a tease. I still can't get over that.
-
Last time they played Ziggo Dome they played 20 full songs. Would be a big difference from the US setlists, but I still do hope they will play this kind of setlists in the EU tour.

Mojo just tweeted there'll be some tickets for sale for the three gigs this afternoon from 16:00. It's not much, around 70 standing and 70 seated per gig. But it's something.
-
There are no meet&greet tickets, there are VIP-tickets, but they don't come with a meet&greet. However, you're in luck, as this afternoon at 16:00 there'll be some tickets for sale for the Amsterdam gigs.

Is it me or are they really late with announcing supports? The first shows in Paris are in two weeks. The Cologne show a good week later isn't even sold out yet. Announcing the support would help in ticket sales right? Here's hoping they won't have any support and Muse just plays for three hours. Though that's still probably not going to happen...
