Speculation on future gigs/tours

[Matt's Jawbone]

My friend is insistent on Coachella being a possibility but I wouldn't count on it.

I doubt it

[iwillbechasingastarlight]

My guess for 2014 Americas Tour:

29 March - Lollapalooza Chile

5 April - Lollapalooza Brasil

6 April - Lollapalooza Argentina

13/20 April - Coachella

Bråvalla festival in Sweden maybe?

[DifferentPerson]

Is Bonnaroo a possibility? I only say this because I want them to do a 28 song setlist like Radiohead did.

[Zolic]

That would be something, they haven't played a festival here for 11 years now... I'd rather have a proper gig though.

"There might be one or two special festivals. Maybe one in America and just one in Europe. The idea is to make an album next year."

 

 

Hope the European one is V Festival or TITP

I'd rather Muse did Hard Rock Calling Festival. Suppose I could do V if my uncle still gets residents tickets.

Forgot about HRC. Id love it if they played it. Went this year and it was great and no horrible camping to contend with

That would be ideal. That and Sweden Rock and they'd be done before the end of June.

Maybe the new stuff will get a first airing at those festivals

always possible. but theyve never really done that before have they?

[forevermusic]

Generally, the songs they aired end up either being different on record (Assassin, Exo-Politics, Plug in Baby) or not on the album (Glorious, Crying Shame, Fury, Eternally Missed). But I don't think they do that anymore.

[maturefan]

It would make more sense if the European festival were a UK one as they all have homes in London. I'm guessing Glastonbury although they have a particular fondness for Reading. If they allowed wheelchairs at the front, I'd be there.

Hyper Music, Micro Cuts, Darkshines, Screenager, New Born (Feeling Good,) The Small Print and Apocalypse Please were also played before release.

 

Also, they've said on more than one occasion that they'r not doing that again.

But they still haven't written anything, basically.

Eh,. Plug In Baby wasn't really that different, unless you're counting the 1997 version which doesn't really count.

 

Anyway, you missed loads and loads of songs.

 

And both you and Zolic missed one of the most obvious ones, BLISS.

It doesn't even feel that long ago that they were saying similar things about T2L.

Yeah. We've heard it enough times not to trust them on that sort of thing.

[Bumpypotato]

Moar riffs. OoS 2.0

[Zolic]

Shit, knew I'd missed one.

 

EDIT: Also Shrinking Universe, Futurism and Nature_1.

But they've said they'll be writing next year and playing two festivals as a one-off, so by the time those gigs come around, I imagine there'll be some finished songs.

In the iHeart Radio interview Matt was asked how was the album 7 writing, and he said "wow, well, we're quite behind". I take that as "we haven't written anything yet", so my guess is that they'll actually start writing/recording after the tour is done, just like they did for the two previous albums. The only difference is that this time the whole process might take less than one year from recording to release and that they might finish touring by July, if it's not the V festival the one they're doing.

[Bumpypotato]

I'd be very surprised if we got any new songs next year.
