DifferentPerson Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 What about the regular BHAR tour stage? And I don't think the 360 stage counts as a Muse stage really. Also I'm pretty sure they used the towers in 2010 too, just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabriPav Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 You forgot the R&L 2011 stage My favourite is probably the pyramid from T2L indoor tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn. Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 In the TR Tour they used four stages -The Towers (For Arenas) -The Pyramid (For Stadiums) -The Beehive (For Festivals) -Few Screens (Some Festivals and indoor venues) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 R&L 2011 is easily my favourite stage set-up out of the ones I've seen, might be my favourite overall as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunge Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 R&L 2011 by miles. Towers were cool but the shows were a bit shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 R&L 2011, Followed by the HAARP setup, with Resistance (non-towers) in third place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadStaaar Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Probably HAARP or R&L 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander DeLarge Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I really like their current festival stage. Basic, visually stunning with the right visuals. Wish they'd focus on innovating the usual stage rather than pyramids and towers and ridiculousness that isn't really practical. Don't get me wrong, I fucking loved the pyramid during T2L's arena tour but to be fair, I was at the best place in the whole venue at every gig I went to. I look at some videos on YouTube and it looks awkward and it splits up the visuals depending on what side you're on and not to mention the craziness that went into building that thing every gig on tour (which I have to give the crew a round of applause for that, fucking hell that's insane). My point is: I've been visually stunned by smaller and simpler things like NIN's stage designs and Radiohead's screens made out of lightbulbs throughout TKoL tour that are much more practical to everyone watching which is the entire point. Imagine if Muse did something like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander DeLarge Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Also, I'd say R&L's stage if they used it properly during the second half but everyone watching the BBC must have been wondering what those pitchforks were for while they were playing Uprising and everything but Origin of Symmetry material.

museymouse Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 My favourites are probably the 2nd law arena stage for the automation of the pyramid and how well the lighting was incorporated into it to work with the visuals on it, and the video panels surrounding the front of the stage and the bowl around the back - it just blended into one another so well .. the unsustainable tour stadium stage for similar reasons and how well themed the whole power station thing was, especially the led strips running around the outside of the chimneys and some other lighting stuff I wont go into ... but it just felt like they had a lot more freedom to move around than on the previous stadium tour and for it's utter simplicity in design but mixed with how brilliantly it worked - the origin of symmetry reading and leeds stage. It felt really stripped back whilst looking fantastic, the scale of the screen at the back mixed with the visuals on it worked really well especially for new born.. and the way that the pitchforks were lit with leds. Also the idea of starting the song with the cyc in and projecting their silhouettes was so so simple but really effective - I think they should do more of the "not over complicating things but at the same time making it look good" I also like the festival stage they've just been using for it's simplicity and how stripped back it is. I think muse need to have that stripped back look a lot more sometimes .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picko Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Among my favourites are: - Reading and Leeds 2006 - Reading and Leeds 2011 - V Festival 2008 - HAARP - BH&R arena tour For an absolute favourite I'd go with... V Festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom//P Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I really liked the simplicity and the visual impact of the towers. Its just a shame the stage became the scapegoat for the repetitive setlists. I also thought the resistance stadium stage looked far more impressive than the 2nd law one, but just wasn't as functional (lack of screens) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthijs Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 The 2nd law smoking towers / factory look was great, but not as good as the Resistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witz Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 My favourite is actually the unsustainable power station, it was over the top, visually incredible and sometimes distracting but always epic! And it has a b-stage which I'm a massive fan of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobby Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Never seen it irl, but I always thought the TR stadium stage looked awful. Yeah, it wasn't great. It looked impressive from a distance but it drew attention away from the band and restricted the audience's view of them quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn. Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Next tour they should use less screens and more lights, everybody uses screens now. And they should play Fury more often, Fury makes any stage look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
