neenz. Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Ok, first of all, I don't post very often so apologies if a similar thread has been posted before and also, I wasn't too sure how to word the title so it's best if you just read on to understand what I'm getting at.... So basically there have been some bands who've maybe re-released an album on it's 10/15/20 year anniversary or whatever and have then gone on tour, playing the classic album in its entirety (The Pixies with 'Doolittle' and now possibly Weezer with the Blue album and 'Pinkerton'). This has been a real treat for older fans who prefer the earlier albums etc.. So does anyone think Muse might do this in the future? What would WMG think about the idea? Who would go? Which album would you like to see performed live in its entirety? This might be an epic fail of a thread and fall flat on its ass but feel free to discuss if you want (but beeeee niiiiiice)

I'd go see just about any album in full as each one has some rarities in it. Also IBTL
musekiddo Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I think this is a great idea and would go no matter which album they chose. But if I had to choose i'd go with origin of symmetry ONLY JUST over showbiz which would also be awesome. Seems unlikely for at least another few years though.
Frakkles Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 It would be cool to see them playing an album in full during a tour and then throwing in some hits after like a OOS 10TH Anniversary Tour. Setlist would be something like this: New Born Bliss Space Dementia Hyper Music Plug In Baby Citizen Erased Micro Cuts Screenager Darkshines Feeling Good Megalomania Uprising Muscle Museum Supermassive Black Hole Hysteria Map Of The Problematique MK Ultra Time Is Running Out Unnatural Selection Showbiz Stockholm Syndrome Knights Of Cydonia
JacksSmirkingR3venge Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I think this would be a really cool idea I agree with the above post that Origin of Symmetry would be a good album to do this with. I highly doubt it would ever happen but I think it would be really fun/interesting if it ever did.
Llama of Time Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 It'd be really cool to do. I'd love a tour They could also do something like My Morning Jacket too. Not a tour but MMJ is playing 5 dates at this place in New York, each day playing a different album. We wouldn't all get to see it because it'd probably be in the UK but maybe they could release a pro-shot or something 5 nights in a row playing each album in full at them, for the encores play B-sides and maybe a regular from another album. Or maybe 4 nights and for the encores they could shuffle in Resistance songs and b-sides so to make a full setlist. Something like that. I'd rather a tour though, so I could see it

grabacr 31770 Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Queens of the Stone Age are doing this with their first album. OoS is sort of getting it's revisit in August (albeit for 2 gigs :'() anyway. I'm not fussed about Showbiz- their music then was worse (arguably), but it was their stage antics and energy which have been lost to an extent that made people covet that era. Absolution and Black Holes (maybe combined) would be nice, as more and more of the songs were played for 1 tour and just dissipated and disappeared, despite being incredible (or at least good) songs. Debase Masons Grog, City of Delusion, Hoodoo, Thoughts of a Dying Atheist and The Small Print make a point. Endlessly and Exo Politics are good, and it would be nice to see them too. And that's not even getting on to the B-sides, Glorious, Easily, Fury and The Groove, all of which are incredible songs, but the number of times they have been played live can be counted on your fingers. They should do a Radiohead and have a pool of a good 50 songs, rotated fairly with slots mixed up, with at least 1 B-side an a few rarities played a night. Sorry, I've started talking about Radiohead again
inthemiddle Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Well apparently theyre playing Origin of Symmetry in its entirety at Reading
Dee3Dee Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Well apparently theyre playing Origin of Symmetry in its entirety at Reading Thanks for the inside scoop!
