Drones Album Discussion Thread

[LewisF]

they seem to like their short lists atm. was slightly disappointed the Psycho tour only had around 16 songs per venue. on the other hand, the fact that MM/Assassin/Futurism were played made up for that in a lot of ways

 

Intimate gigs = shorter sets

[jangdiin]

They should play:

8 new songs

7 Hits

7-8 Semi-Rarities/Rarities

 

At least.

 

Simples.

 

This.

 

New songs: DI, Psycho, Mercy, Reapers, Handler, Defector, TG

 

Hits: Hysteria, TiRO, SS (or New Born), Starlight, KoC, Uprising, SMBH

 

The rarities they can flip however they want to.

That. Is. Awesome.

[Boogles.]

Although, I'm not sure I'd necessarily want them to play the album in track order if they were to play the whole thing. I'd rather they spread every track over the course of the gig. This is mostly because Dead Inside would be an awful opener to a gig.

it really, really would be terrible

Speaking of Defector..I wonder when they will debut it into their sets. Or will it be played a couple of times and forgotten like MK Ultra.

[jangdiin]

Are they only gonna play 16-17 tracks for the festivals?

[Boogles.]

I'm hoping they're just saving the rest of Drones for their own headline gigs. It doesn't make sense to stick to just the 5 songs from Drones that they're playing atm.

[Boogles.]

That's usually what they do, playing 17-19 songs, with the exception being R+L 2011 which got a 22 songs setlist due to OoS being played in full.

hope MM doesn't get ignored for the next 10 years. Fucking love that song

This. It's kinda meh as an album opener as well.

Must say I was really disappointed it didn't get another outing after Exeter. Here's hoping it gets another few outings on the proper Drones tour.

I'm seeing them 26/6 for the first time ever. Ofcourse I'd be more than happy if they played the set they have now, but I seriously want atleast one rarity. Please play Bliss and MotP Muse

If you're lucky they've been rotating Plug In Baby and Bliss. So if you land on the right gig, you might get Bliss.

You what. Jealous of you! I mean, I get Bliss and Dead Star in the same set but still jealous of you!

[Citizen Erased 01]

MoTP and Bliss would make a good rotation imo. Also CE needs to be brought out more often. Beast.

Yeah but ofcourse I wanna hear PiB too....but would rather have Bliss tbh, it's my absolute favorite Muse track so.

It's so fun live, even more fun if you don't get stuck with a "friend" who complains you're singing too loud in their ear at the concert like I did.

Those gigs were fucking awesome. The excitement of seeing that they'd played Uno or Futurism the night before... stunning. Especially after Psycho was unveiled. I'll probs never again reach that level of excitement

I missed the presale because my member section logged me out. :'(

[jangdiin]

Gosh I'm so pumped seeing them live soon.

I missed it too, because I forgot my fucking password haha. Had to snatch 2 tix the day of the general release, was so lucky to get them

[Boogles.]

I'm hoping they announce UK tour dates soon. With one of them being the Manchester Arena because I missed them at the Academy.

I will go to one of their dates if it kills me so pumped after the Psycho tour, even their new setlists (barring Download obvs) can't bring my hopes down
