MartianSpaghettiRider Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 I'm coming back from my first Muse gig, it has been fantastic! Didn't expect Defector at all, ahahah! But I knew they would play it when I heard Matt playing along with the orchestral part of JFK. And it wasn't so bad in a live contest as I've got from the videos from Zürich! And Citizen, Take A Bow, Hysteria... WOW. No words... I'm happy like a child in a candy shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destroya Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Obviously haven't heard the latter yet, but i would much prefer Stockholm Syndrome to Defector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartianSpaghettiRider Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Obviously haven't heard the latter yet, but i would much prefer Stockholm Syndrome to Defector. I would've loved to get Stockholm, but in retrospective I can't complain, I just can't! I'm so, so happy! I've come to the conclusion that (although I may change my mind due to the dying hype) while I might criticise "poor" setlists whenever I want without attending to those gigs, being there could quite totally be a different thing.

serpentsatellite Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 tbf, you got a pretty damn good setlist... PiB, CE, Defector, TaB, Hysteria... I'd be pretty put out if someone was unhappy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corkscrewed Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Stockholm in Italy today. Also Supremacy! Liking the mix-up's they've done for Europe part 2. Definitely wish we'd gotten that, but happy for the fans who can experience these sets the past couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewisF Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 ...Aaaand, now I'm really pissed off. Fair enough regarding SS, but Supremacy ain't any big loss. You got a great setlist anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraffah Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Don't really understand the SS love to be honest. I've had it at 9 of 11 shows and it's stale as fuck to me. The two without it this year were a welcome reprieve. I'd say the same for Plug In Baby and Hysteria. I get really bored of hearing the same songs at every show, every year, no matter where I go. Hell, even Map and TAB were getting dry by the fourth consecutive show, and the former is one of my top five songs by any band, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got a great setlist anyhow There's a really positive side in me being "pissed off" (I was deliberately exaggerating a bit): it saves me from post-gig depression.

I didn't get SS at any of my 3 shows on The 2nd Law tour, and I a little bit meh about the studio version - its a good tune but I find the guitar heavily over-processed - but when I re-caught it at the Brighton Dome, it was one of my contenders for best song and I had realised how much its non-appearance had been unwelcome. I missed Hysteria too on T2L but I'm not too arsed on that one, even if on both Drones performances, that bassy wallop is still awesome. I've caught Plug in Baby at 8/8 though... can live with that one getting a rest next time. Same too with Uprising, SMBH and Starlight, but that ain't happening (TiRO and Knights are still awesome live). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartianSpaghettiRider Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Don't worry, statistically speaking you're almost guaranteed it next time lol. I rather have a dream of saving enough money to purchase a ticket for a hypothetical small club gig of theirs in the future, which it would surely be outside of Italy. There, I might get old gems and rarities I've never had the chance to get in this ten-year period as a Muse fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows without Starlight are absolutely incredible - I had two last year and it wasnt missed at all! Hysteria is probably my favourite of the 'staples' but when its being played in the JFK slot I feel really disappointed knowing I could have had Defector / Revolt / Assassin/ another new song (for me), I guess. Though thats probably just the collector side of me speaking.

Jobby Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Stockholm's probably in my top 5 songs I've seen, if not just outside it. Can be easy to forget just how good it is considering how consistent it is but it's the perfect live Muse song imo. Only thing it's noticeably lacking for me are decent "I wish I could"s (*cough*giveittochris*cough*). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 SS was one of the few "staples" (at the time, of course...) that I DIDN'T think was getting a bit stale. Don't think that's a common opinion that it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFK+Hysteria was very weird - didn't need the speech at all, nevermind the fact that it could've been Defector or Assassin or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyonco10 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I think I'm in the SS being a little stale camp, didn't really miss it at my Drones show, although I would've not missed even more if something awesome took its place, I guess I should just be happy about seeing AP for the first time. I'm more pissed that I haven't seen PIB in my past two out of 3 gigs, spanning 4 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serpentsatellite Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 AP was very mixed for me. I was super happy to see it, and it's a hell of a lot better than the alternative piano songs (except now that they're counting CE as such.) I would have been a lot more excited however, if I had any view of Matt or the piano, so that dampened my enthusiasm quite a bit. Other than the Drones songs that I hadn't seen any of, I don't think there was a single song at Philly that I wouldn't have traded to see SS again.

Since Stockholm Syndrome is in my top 5 favourite Muse songs (can't really pick a #1), it was probably the song I wanted to see the most. At the time it was the SS-New Born roulette, so I was kinda bummed to get New Born twice in a row. Pinkpop last summer made up for it though, since we got both SS and New Born there! Same goes for Hysteria btw. Seen it 3 times and would love to see MotP once! Edited May 16, 2016 by Robinho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
