Obi Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 For all their crappy Twilight ballads (), I'm glad that Muse have at least taken on board what people were saying about the predictable setlists. With the polls, I was worried they'd revert to autopilot and just play the odd Bliss and CE to keep the hardcores happy. Last night's setlist looked very promising though, and MK Ultra opening is a fantastic idea. They've obviously taken on board how much we like the song. I'm actually looking forward to Muse at T a wee bit now, whereas I was very apprehensive about it before (worried it'd turn me off the band for good =/).
Wingardium LevioSIA Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 Good choice, I reckon. We are the Universe is quite cool, but that followed by Uprising is a bit limp for an opener. MK Ultra's riff is more energetic. WatU - MK Ultra might work well too.
Llama of Time Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 Good choice, I reckon. We are the Universe is quite cool, but that followed by Uprising is a bit limp for an opener. MK Ultra's riff is more energetic. WatU - MK Ultra might work well too. I don't know though, the song needs a very strong opening to work with WatU IMO and MK Ultra doesnt have a powerful beginning (If this makes sense, hearing the first part of Uprising right after WatU is kind of awesome). I can't think right now so I can't think of another song, but I dunno about MKU for that. I think MKU should be more used for festivals and stuff when they don't have an intro, and I also think it could be a really cool opener for an encore.
grenade310 Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 I've never heard it live, so YES! one more vote here
Me3009 Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 I voted 'I hate Matt Bellamy'. Ofcourse I'm not serious. Anyway, MK Ultra makes a great opener, though I love Take a Bow too.
hopelessly-and-endlessly Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 i love the energy and intensity of MKU live. opener FTW.
hystericali Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 I'd be made up if they opened the Saturday Wembley gig with MK Ultra, it's the perfect opening song for their gigs in my opinion. :happy:
Gareeh Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 yes, the best decision in TR era. -1 letting the fans vote imo is the best decision.
KellyJohnson Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 i don't care what they play, but i would like them to play uno for me.
Davinq Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 They opened with it at DTHB last December, and it was Stupid Seattle hipsters, none of them knew what it was.
Andre_idol Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 With fireworks?! HELL YEAH!! Was awesome Open with Dead Star!! But yeah that is unlikely, so MK wins but...yeah...maybe you australians get a rarity like this one...
A for Awesomeness Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 No, I'm still on the side of having Execution Commentary as an opener.
r2thabh Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 No, I'm still on the side of having Execution Commentary as an opener. Cause that's totally gonna happen.
jack259 Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 End of the day, MKUltra is an awesome opener. And I hope it stays there because it'll most probably get dropped otherwise. And Uprising can't be there opener all of the time. Every other album had at least 2, if not 3 consistant openers throughout the era.
Assassin300 Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 Mk is a good song, but imo, they should stick to opening with Uprising
Riveon Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 They dropped it as an opener, and as a song...for Guiding Light or Feeling Good.
Mozza Posted June 3, 2010 Author Posted June 3, 2010 it's a joke! What the fuck goes through their minds?
Chocolate E. Clare Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 oh, god knows im still holding out the hope that theyll remember to play it on the rest of the tour
Mystery Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 Great song, average opener.. Not awful, but definitely not amongst the best. Though, TR doesn't really have a song that'd make a really strong opener. I'd probably say Unnatural Selection would work best. Should open with KoC, and close with SS, preferably. But of course, neither will happen. THEY'D GET CONFUSED MOVING THE ORDER OF SONGS THAT MUCH.. Or at least they make you think that.
