Your Perfect Muse Setlist

[jacjens]

Resistance has never really been great live, I love the album track but it loses so much punch live.

 

I think of it the other way around.

[Duk3 Fluk3m]

I think of it the other way around.

 

Oh really? I love the Glasto 2010 version with the Double Neck Manson, but other than that, i feel that the album version just sounds a lot heavier and louder, especially the final part.

 

Another song where i think the album version is generally better is Map, but i think it sounded a lot heavier this tour, just like it did during the BH&R tour. I just felt that the guitar was less prominent on the TR and T2L gigs.

 

EDIT: Hang on, going to post a setlist.

 

1. Exogenesis Part One ( drones fly out)

2. Reapers ( drones still flying)

3. Drill Seargent + Psycho

I still think it is perfectly reasonable to rotate every single slot outside of whatever album they're touring with at least two options.

 

(Intro)

*New rock song*

*New pop song*

Reapers/Psycho

Map of the Problematique/Interlude+Hysteria

Dead Inside/Madness/Panic Station

Sing For Absolution/The Small Print

The Handler/Animals

Knights of Cydonia/Take a Bow

*New jam*

Sunburn/Falling Down/Apocalypse Please/Ruled By Secrecy/Hoodoo/United States of Eurasia

*New piano song*

Citizen Erased/Butterflies & Hurricanes

Spiral Static/Futurism/Fury/Dead Star/Glorious/whatever isn't on here (dealer's choice among band/crew)

*New rock song*

Uno/Muscle Museum (20 year anniversary slot)

Forced In/The Gallery (break time)

Time is Running Out/Supermassive Black Hole

Uprising/Resistance

HT&ILY/Darkshines/Blackout/City of Delusion/MK Ultra/Survival/Defector (GREAT BUT FORGOTTEN SLOT)

Stockholm Syndrome/New Born/Micro Cuts/JFK+Assassin/Unnatural Selection (riff outros)

--------------------------

Sign o the Times/Lies/Lithium/Can't Take My Eyes Off You/New cover

Starlight/Mercy

*New bombastic ending song*

 

22 total

Next time I think id like it to be / should be... Assuming a lot of rotation:

 

6 New Album Songs

Time is Running Out

Starlight

Supermassive Black Hole

Knights of Cydonia

 

Psycho / Uprising

 

Interlude + Hysteria / Plug in Baby (popular singles)

 

Madness / Dead Inside / UD / Panic Station

 

Resistance / Mercy

 

Map of the Problematique / Bliss (popular with casuals and hardcore, electronic and synth influences plus both have Riffage)

 

Stockholm Syndrome / Reapers / New Born

 

Citizen Erased / Butterflies & Hurricanes

 

PIANO ROATION SLOT

 

Take a Bow / MK Ultra / Supremacy / Sing for Absolution (forgotten album gems)

Since I would basically make the same setlist as you, I'll just comment what I'd change instead of posting an almost identical setlist.

 

First off, I'd rotate TIRO with Uprising, drop Micro Cuts since it's not worth the toll it takes on Matt's voice. Replace it with Hyper Music instead.

 

Then I'd probably do Sunburn/Space Dementia followed by Ruled By Secrecy/Hoodoo. Basically heavy, rock-piano song followed by a slow song with a big ending. Better than getting two slow songs with big endings in a row.

 

Maybe rotate Reapers with New Born and US and simply drop The Handler which he can't sing either.

Show's how horridly static Muse sets have become. When people would rather see awful songs then more of the same old.
