H4N5 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I'm so sick of the Harmonica intro I was as well. But I managed to catch the first harmonica Chris used in Amsterdam, and that was fun The problem is that a lot of people at the gigs don't see Muse that often, so they aren't sick of the Harmonica yet. And Muse appear to base their setlists for quite a big part on those 'fans'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Muse appear to base their setlists for quite a big part on those 'fans'. If they stopped with all the actors and light bulbs and just focused on playing music then there would be no need for the harmonica. And they could completely change their sets every night, maybe only keep like 3 songs at every gig; say Survival, Stockholm and PiB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsertCreativeNameHere Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Its more like a fucking pantomime than a gig seeing Muse these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadStaaar Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 And they could completely change their sets every night, maybe only keep like 3 songs at every gig; say Survival, Stockholm and PiB. Works for Metallica although knowing Muse they'd make it Guiding Light, Madness and UD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn. Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 At this moment, best set of the tour, Emirates 2nd night. With 6 songs from Absolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Personally I'd go with Coventry. It was a nice mix of songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee3Dee Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Muse should replace Guiding Light with Host for the stadiums. Host sounded fucking amazing at the arenas. Matt would be alone on the B-stage obvs. EDIT: And as far as transitions go, this would actually be a pretty good encore: Unintended Undisclosed Desires Blackout Host (in full, to end the encore properly with that badass riff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipso Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 pretty good encore: Undisclosed Desires . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopix Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Muse should replace Guiding Light with Host for the stadiums. Host sounded fucking amazing at the arenas. Matt would be alone on the B-stage obvs. EDIT: And as far as transitions go, this would actually be a pretty good encore: Unintended Undisclosed Desires Blackout Host (in full, to end the encore properly with that badass riff) . UD isn't that bad, Matt doesn't play the guitar because there isn't one, so that's fair enough. Unintended and Blackout, whilst sounding good, feel odd without Matt on guitar though. And Host in full would be too good too be true for sure, but great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee3Dee Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 . Pretty good based on what we have to work with, you sock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojane Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I thought unintended was more boring than UD in Manchester. Probably unintended I'd say was the most boring the whole show. So yeah, Dee would be right in putting that as a good encore, I'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipso Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Pretty good based on what we have to work with, you sock. Sock? Is that some kind of Swedish insult, because that's not something I've been called before Also if you're working with what we have, then Host doesn't really qualify, so it's kinda all or nothing, no?

FabriPav Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 They should go with Unintended Blackout Stockholm Syndrome. Remove GL, put UD before or after Follow Me. Close the main set with a New Born/Micro Cuts rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domaaa Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I think everyone is by now. It was a cool idea at first but it should've died a long fucking time ago, now it's just tedious to watch and experience live. The only real good part about KOC live is the breakdown/riff anyway, it really doesn't need a fucking 2 minute long intro. Yeah, I admit I did find it quite cool then and it did kind of fit/work but it still gets boring really quickly. Has anyone not picked up that Chris missed the harmonica and blew into the microphone in Manchester? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentsatellite Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Has anyone not picked up that Chris missed the harmonica and blew into the microphone in Manchester? I hadn't heard that one. I have had terrible luck finding videos lately, and the threads are a bit too clogged for me to catch up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InsertCreativeNameHere Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Knights was crap. Its better when its dark, gives it more atmosphere. They played it too early in the set and it just didnt have the same impact. Plus Chris did fuck up the intro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
