Speculation on future gigs/tours

[kueller 101]

Seeing fan reactions to deep cuts a few months later makes me think we don't deserve them really.

When you’ve seen people say Showbiz (6x in 19 gigs after 11 years), Fury (13x in 10 years) and Futurism (6x literally ever) are overplayed

 

tbh, 700% yes

[forevermusic 10]

Showbiz overplayed?

 

… k.

[kueller 101]

 

Looking back at La Cigale. Imagine having to convince your pre-Zepp (and post-Resistance) self that this would be the ending of a Muse concert some day.

[Jobby 97]

Pre-Zepp?

 

Lmao try convincing me the final versions of Futurism, Glorious, Eternally Missed or Easily would literally ever be played. Or that Muse would do a actual, proper, fully legit by-request show full of hardcores at the venue I most wanted to go to. Shit, try telling me Muse would start playing clubs occasionally, regardless of rarities. The idea of the Psycho Tour alone blew my mind at the time.

 

The maddest thing we’d seen up ‘til that point was an album anniversary gig (which, granted, was for their best record and fucking great), or 1 minute of Host coming back for a few gigs.

[TheSmallPrint02 10]

Are you saying that because of the ‘04 performance? ‘Cos they’ve played there since then.

 

Edit:

 

 

 

Also I was gonna say “boys we live in a time where we can say we wouldn’t be surprised to see Showbiz, how did we get here” but then I saw the ‘overplayed’ part and honestly wtf

 

 

I know they went to Rock am Ring in 2010 as well. It was just wishful thinking to hope for a return of those songs. Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't TSP the only song sound-checked for the Drones tour that didn't actually get played in the end?

 

As for the Showbiz part, that's just how I feel about it. 6 times in the past year is a lot for a rarity, then you look at something like Blackout which was only played once in 2016. I get that I'm new to the forum and all and perhaps I'm talking a load of garbage, in fact I probably am.

[Hat 26]

Blackout was indeed only played once in 2016...but almost 20 times in 2013. 6 times in 11 years really isn’t that much considering how much Muse tour. But yes, there are other songs that are even more rare.

Ah right, forgive me. I was unaware Showbiz had not been played for THAT long. I had assumed it was only 5-6 years for some reason.

 

I would still rather hear Blackout at least once this year over Showbiz however.

Blackout is a good song but until Matt picks the guitar back up for it, I'm not so arsed about it returning.

I'm more into Matt's crazy expensive jackets now than the gigs.

They are very nice jackets tbf. Although I prefer last year's blue one.

Feelin that next By Request gig next month with Rock In Rio being their last scheduled gig, teasing for the next video starting and Matt saying it should be out in July

I seriously hope they do announce a By Request show. I mean if you really think about it, La Cigale has been really the only 'pwoper' Muse concert. Everything else this year has just been festivals.

Well its not out of the realms of possibility.

[Lancer_MiG 10]

It would make sense for them to do a "by demand" concert, and it wouldn't hurt to involve the fanbase in the band's life regularily!

[forevermusic 10]

Wonder if they'll do festivals next year or stick to doing their own concerts.

[TheSmallPrint02 10]

I think Matt said that next year will be another proper tour as their new album is getting released this November. There could be a few festivals still, but they will have their own official ones mostly and there will be a lot more too.

 

I wouldn't get too excited for a By Request show soon however, as Chris has only just had his operation and is now in recovery. He will be for the next few months.

[titoufou17 10]

matt talked about the possibility for them to make stadiums again so might be for summer 2019

I did see Matt respond to an Instagram comment suggesting they should do Rock in Rio in Rio next year with "Good idea", which makes me think they might do the odd one or two.

 

But I would imagine that if they're talking about having full concepts for the new album tour that they're going to be doing their own gigs as a priority. In saying that, we're probably not going to be hearing a great deal until we know about the new LP, plus ofc Chris' recovery means they'll be off the road for the bulk of what's left of 2018 anyway.

[TheSmallPrint02 10]

Rock in Rio again next year? That would be interesting to see. I always thought they put around 3 -6 years in between attending festivals or for some even longer.

 

The way it's looking for the rest of this year is "Something Human" coming out this month, another single (guessing it's either "Algorithm" or "Dark Side") coming out in the Autumn, before the full album finally drops in November.

[titoufou17 10]

if i remember well he was answering a brazilian fan about coming to "rock in rio in actual rio" so in Brazil. And he said at the end of the gig see you next year portugal refering to their next tour with the new album

[halo eighteen 11]

I'm actually dumbfounded that Drones has been out for 3 years already. It doesn't seem like it's been that long already.
