I’ve gotta say, I am extremely disappointed with the setlist for this tour. I know with it being an ‘all bells and whistles’ massive production world tour there’s a good chance it’ll be a static setlist made up mostly of ‘hits’ but honestly, if you’ve ever seen Muse before you’ll have seen them all already. The new Simulation Theory tracks sound good but Blockades is sorely missing. And I didn’t think they could make Dig Down any more boring then they went and made it gospel 🙄 Initially I thought the metal medley was a great idea, a chance for old school fans to hear some great old Muse tracks (albeit only bits of them) and it was the highlight of the Royal Albert Hall gig for me, but if it’s just gonna be the same 5 tracks every time that’s very disappointing. I’m seeing them in London and I know when I’m there I’ll be blown away by the grand spectacle of it all but I really do wish they’d put a bit more thought into the setlist before they lock it in on such a long tour. I know I’m not alone when I say I could happily never see Starlight/SMBH/Resistance/Madness/Uprising ever again. The majority of fans (even casual ones) have seen these songs every time Muse play a gig somewhere and it really is a crime to play them time and time again while ignoring brilliant tracks like Butterflies & Hurricanes/Sing For Absolution/Map Of The Problematique/Sunburn/New Born/Bliss 😒 these songs are all hits too, in fact I think they were all singles! Matt not playing guitar, the cheesy ‘front man’ persona, barely any piano tracks.. today’s Muse are a very different band to the one I fell in love with all those years ago and I think that’s a damn shame. Oh and where’s the hell has Showbiz gone? After the massive fan reaction to it (and the By Request shows) you’d have thought they’d have found a way of working that into the 24 track setlist. My only hope is that this setlist is geared at the US audience and that by the time the tour rolls around to the UK there’ll hopefully be some variation, but I’m not holding my breath.

But do we trust them..? I would be gutted if MK Ultra or Escape were added after I submitted my vote!

Held off on voting because I suspected more songs might get added. I was right, but I'm still skeptical just in case they add more!

Never gonna happen but imagine if they dropped the usual setlist fodder and played just the fan favourites.. 01. Dead Star 02. Reapers 03. Psycho 04. Fury 05. Uno 06. Eternally Missed 07. New Born 08. The Small Print 09. Muscle Museum 10. Easily 11. Showbiz 12. Cave 13. Falling Away With You 14. The Groove 15. Futurism 16. Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist 17. Knights Of Cydonia

Massive thanks to the person who originally posted the R+L presale link, managed to bag one level 1 seat! Chuffed

Seriously tempted to go to this! Didn't I hear somewhere that Matt said they'd play Showbiz at a Paris gig? I'd kill for Showbiz..

I rarely post but after hearing this song I just felt the need to express how bloody ace it is to hear Muse making good music again.

Had this same worry when I purchased mine but a very helpful lady at Ticketmaster confirmed what I already suspected; the 500 or so standing tickets are allocated a seat number just so the venue can keep track of how many they're selling. Fear not, you shall go the ball!

I have 2 men's small I'm looking to trade. Particularly interested in the black triangle one if anyone has a spare! Drop me a PM if you're interested. Apologies for the huge image size!

Thanks for the Sun link! Here's hoping they play something a little bit special.. It'll probably just be Supremacy - SMBH - Follow Me - Starlight and IS though.. Ah well, can't complain, it's a free gig!
