    Turns out there is a relatively high number of people offended about the Rising Flag in the intro of the video (Japanese Imperialism), its being reworked..


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,106 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Its up again, the new one. What the hell did I just see?


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,858 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse with modern Muse, that is horrendous :o

    Befitting of the song though I guess.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,234 ✭✭✭Meesared

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,305 ✭✭✭splashthecash

    Just got a ticket for Manchester today, so that makes London night 2 and Manchester. Hoping for a few Abso rarities since it's the 10th anniversary of it. Blackout was just soundchecked in Montreal so here's hoping!

    If the last album was only 3 songs long, ie the first 3, it would have been awesome.

    Love the singles


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,858 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    I've given them plenty of stick over the past few years with all the drivel released BUT if they keep up setlists like this there might be hope for the live shows at least -

    http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/muse/2013/ricoh-arena-coventry-england-5bd9bf38.html

    Dead Star, Bliss, Feeling Good, Unintended, Sunburn and Blackout all got a run out.

    Only thing for me is most of those ones have been in set lists for a while, just not in that quantity. Some different old songs would be great. Bar dead star, that should live in their sets. And Feeling Good to disappear for a longer time.

    Seems like loads of stuff going on though, would be nuts!

    Nothing new in that set list.

    Dead Stars been back in a while, and slower paced stuff like Unintended and Blackout are very hit n miss live.

    One swallow doesn't make a summer


  • Registered Users Posts: 927 ✭✭✭Maybe_Memories


    Was at Emirates night 2, disappointed I didn't get Dead Star, but hopefully I'll get it at Manchester. Got Hysteria, Map, Butterflies, Sunburn and Stockholm in the rotation slots.

    Though why they've a) brought back Guiding Light, b) made Feeling Good a staple and c) are closing with Starlight is completely beyond me.

    Yea I was looking at the set lists and they got dead star on the first night (and bliss) but to get sunburn is too awesome!!

    I don't know if they are trying to keep themselves open to all their fan base by playing songs like guiding light etc.. They know what their core fans want... Its such a pity really! I guess they would get bored of playing the same set list so try mix it up a bit.


    But I have to agree, as much as I love feeling good, why its always played at every gig is beyond me!! Blast out citizen erased or microcuts instead!!
    And star light to close... hell no!! cydonia is an epic closing tune, especially with the harmonica intro!!

    I agree with everything you said except this :p

    Imo Survival or Stockholm are the best closers they've ever had.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,002 ✭✭✭Mike Litoris


    Survival is an epic closer. Good to see Butterflies back too. Would love to see Take a Bow back too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭hypermuse


    They have a whole load of classic closing songs!

    Survival I'm not that sold on tbh

    Cydonia, Stockholm, Bliss (extended) even take a bow all epic songs to end a gig on!

    but starlight, just no...


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭miralize


    Have they ever ended a show with KoC & the Reading 2006 outro?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,877 ✭✭✭purplecow1977


    4 days, 4 days, 4 days......................! :D:D:D:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,002 ✭✭✭Mike Litoris

    Going my their tours since post 2nd law, You'll get either Stockholm syndrome or newborn.. not both.

    So if you hear Stockholm, then its game over for newborn I'm afraid!

    best of luck!

    While I do sympathise... I can't help but say... LOL :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 927 ✭✭✭Maybe_Memories


    I've gotten Stockholm on the roulette at all my T2L gigs too. I'm not complaining at all. New Born is poo live these days and SS is a beast.

    Here's a video of Dead Star from last night, I'm the guy on the left of the guy holding the white sign at the start, and we're both going spastic. It was the best 4 minutes of my life.



    The gig was miles better than emirates night 2


  • Registered Users Posts: 927 ✭✭✭Maybe_Memories


    After Stockholm tonight in Helsinki they started jamming then Matt went over to Dom, said something and made a hand motion, Dom gives a WTF look, and they play Agitated and Yes Please in full for the first time since 2001/2000. These were not on the setlist and were totally spontaneous.



  • Registered Users Posts: 40,858 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Against my better judgement and despite my constant whinging about their output over the last few years, I've just spent $140 (€97.50) on a ticket to see them in November :o

    I better be rewarded with Dead Star! :pac:

    Use Panic Station, Follow Me and Madness for piss breaks and buying beer. Outside of that the usual hits are quite good though Cydonia sounds all soft and cabaret these days.

    Jesus that's expensive!

    Panic Station is the **** and is so fun live. The other two though, yeah piss all you want, though the lasers will be cool.

    You never know, you could get a B-Side or something really old since they seem to be rehearsing for this 20th anniversary club tour atm hence Agitated and Yes Please.

    I don't mind Follow Me, the other two are utter rubbish though.

    Tell me about it.

    Yeah back in '07 we got Fury which was pretty cool so something similar would nice.

    Also, in eight gigs so far since 2002 I've never seen Unintended and that seems to be getting an airing these days.
