Dee3Dee Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Muse have never played something out of request at the same gig, and they'll never do Not true. Back in 2005 at a US gig they played (and closed with, I think) Micro Cuts after some guys shouted it out during the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure they played Citizen Erased in Chile 2008 after someone draped a flag over the barrier with CE on it. Also, can we technically count Dead Star's appearances in Toronto and NYC as (belated) requests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WutDaFucksy Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 They played songs like Starlight and Knights of Cydonia on request as they were in one of the polls in the summer setlist poll thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrebleRose689 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Also, can we technically count Dead Star's appearances in Toronto and NYC as (belated) requests? I think that's why someone said the Germans will have the Italians to thank Gone are the days when they'd change the setlist mid-gig... Now they need advance notice, apparently (But I guess it's an improvement... Listening to requests at all is a step-up for them ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the exception of Springsteen, who has about 20 billion songs to choose from, and Green Day, who played a request at Wembley when I saw them, I don't think many bands stop a huge stadium production for a front row request. Still, I suppose the appearance of Dead Star a mere 24 hours after the request technically counts. I'd take Invincible over Guiding Light, any day. Agreed.

ryanp16 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Tbf though with all their production and visuals and shit if they just decided "fuck it we'll play darkshines next for the laugh" so much shit would go wrong. Visuals, lighting, specific guitars/basses and all their backstage shit like effects loops and tones need to be considered too. If they were playing a small-ish venue with just the guys on stage and we were back in the pre-TR days they could play something on request. Now it's pretty much impossible since they don't even control their own pedal boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During TR you'd hear them/their crew talk about how they have visuals and stuff just a button away pretty much, and how they'd have to adapt if Muse decided to play a new song 5 minutes before the gig etc. And then in the very next sentence they'd be like "but olol the stage restricts us, lost the pedal, *insert bullshit excuse*". If they really wanted to change the setlist mid-gig they could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay yeah, I suppose the visual guys could use the generic green strobes for any non-planned song and it never actually occured to me that the guitar techs could actually have a massive list of what settings to use for what song. If that were the case, then yeah they totally could Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 I'd take Invincible over Guiding Light, any day. Well duh. They might still play GL and replace Blackout with Invincible though, it's Muse If they really wanted to change the setlist mid-gig they could. Yeah exactly. But they chose to make this stadium tour more of a show and less of a concert, therefore they don't want to even think about changing the set mid-gig.

But I doubt it was just songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zolic Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 All this energy the italians use for these things are both cute and bloody annoying at the same time. They should change GL for invincible, although they never would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn. Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Muse know the diference between something meh and something great. Remeber Statde de France 2, that gig was special for them and for the fans, so they bring back DS and B&H. The Rome gig will be special too, with the film thing, so i hope they will do something impressive with the setlist. Guiding Light will be out, and this 3-4 days they could rehearsal some old songs.

Coldplay have done a few random spontaneous songs I think. It's usually just Chris doing a solo piano or acoustic version of a song though rather than a full band version.

kueller Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 One truck for each camera? Some might be the cranes and other large equipment to host the cameras. Although I doubt they'd need more than a few trucks to carry it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
