    One thing that really stood out from last night for me is that Madness is the real mood-killer. Starlight and SMBH were ok, people clap along and dance a little bit and sing loudly. FG had a far bigger singalong than Madness. The setlist was good, if CE had come in for FG the balance would have been almost perfect. And the crowd wasn't too bad, it was livelier than the 14th imho. There was a moshpit behind me for most of the gig that I had a bit of fun in during SS. EDIT: Also, Take a Bow is so absolutely wonderful.

    Brilliant, brilliant gig. The crowd around me had been fairly sedate until the drums kicked in during Assassin, and then it suddenly got wild af. Just reflects how powerful a song it is... A few things I didn't expect tonight: - Prelude actually works live - Matt's falsettos all sound fine when you're actually there - Resistance - Assassin, after it looked so much like they were about to play Interlude (congrats Jobby ) - Reapers' first choruses don't quite work live - PiB to still be so good, every damn time

    I don't know whether this post has any legitimacy or not (it's still a bit early in the morning for me) but I wonder if the setlist picker(?!) realises how important OOS and especially Abso/BH&R are to Muse being an arena and stadium band at present. By 2006 they could easily support the sort of UK tour they are doing now (although am aware they hadn't been such a big hit in the US) on the basis of three rock albums that went down brilliantly live, including the deep cuts. BUT If The Resistance and T2L had been their 3rd and 4th albums, and they were trying to build their way into arenas with songs like UD, Resistance, Supremacy and Madness, I doubt they would have made it so quickly. As has been said on here, even the more casual fans don't really give a shit about those songs live (except maybe for "Oh Madness I know this one"). If you take them out of the gig, it doesn't really lose anything. This might be my most stupid post on here ever and I guess I don't really have a point apart from to say they should play AP, TSP, S4A and Assassin more often, but hey.

    SS for Hysteria is also a shit trade.

    It's always nice to see SS, but watching that whole thing was very bizarre. I think I've only just appreciated how weird all this stuff with JFK + <Not Defector> actually is.

    Bit of an IS drum fail there?

    Love what this guy does, even if it's not 100% perfect. Listened to this one a fair bit - not such a fan of what he's done with the solo and can't decide if I love or hate the chorus harmonies, but it's certainly interesting. CE now for the gig Munich gig?

    the talking throughout it still makes me so upset

    This is so strange
  11. frozenbanana
    Seems like they did JFK + Interlude + Hysteria again... :facepalm: :facepalm:

    let's hope this isn't going to be the start of some really weird rotation

    Had to laugh out loud at tonight's setlist, the difference between it and night 1 is unreal. Find it very hard to believe the band don't know what they're doing when they do stuff like this
  14. frozenbanana
    Jesus Christ, that's the worst setlist since Portland or Oakland
  15. frozenbanana
    woarr this setlist is a shocker EDIT: Knights has been played and it's all over... does that mean it's a 15 song set (17 with IS and Interlude)?
  16. frozenbanana
    Yeah they've been going for a fair bit, Map and Supremacy so far as well as all the regulars
  17. frozenbanana
    Any proof of the S4A soundcheck? Sorry if I've missed it

    Sexy MoTP is sexy. This tour has really reminded me how much of a great song it is.
  20. frozenbanana
    TaB confirmed. Night folks!
  21. frozenbanana
    Is it just me or has JFK come one song earlier than usual?
  22. frozenbanana
    Thanks

    Can someone make audios of Showbiz tuned down a half and full step and post them on here? Worked for getting Futurism played...

    Didn't Emily Eavis say it was 3 brilliant British bands headlining this year? Has to be Radiohead. Plz plz plz.

    What the fuck starts to happen to the solo from 2:33 onwards? Am fairly sure it's something that has happened in previous performances with Chris on the guitar and I can't decide whether it's him or Morgan or something else... whatever it is, it sounds absolutely awful EDIT: see 2:44 on this video from Mexico 2013, what the hell [YT] [/YT]
