Part of [[The Drones World Tour 2015/16]].
First show of 2018 after the release of Thought Contagion.


==Information==
== Information ==
One of the members from Nothing But Thieves got sick so they were replaced by The Van Jets at the last minute.
Announced on February 15, 2018


The spherical drones were placed on the floor at this show due to height restrictions of the venue.  
Muse's second by request gig after the [[London Shepherds Bush Empire 2017 (gig)|2017 Shepherd's Bush one]].


Reapers was played as an opener for the first time on the tour since November 2015. Interlude and Hysteria was played after JFK for the first time on the tour.
The show was streamed live on the band’s social channels (Facebook, Twitter/Periscope and YouTube) and included real time fan voting for 3 songs in the setlist. Ticket holders were able to choose their Top 5 tracks and all votes submitted were collated and used to curate the set on the night.


Assassin and Defector were soundchecked.
Tickets were available on 17 February. In an effort to combat touts there was a two ticket limit. In addition, names were printed on all tickets & you had to show valid government ID to enter the venue. Name changes on tickets were prohibited.
 
You can watch the whole show [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4_0ed9qndI here] or watch the individual clips by seeing the setlist below.
 
The official gallery from the gig can be seen on [https://www.muse.mu/gallery/paris-france-la-cigale-24-february-2018-262656 muse.mu].
 
=== Concert information ===
* Thought Contagion made its live debut.
* Eternally Missed was played for the first since 2002. Matt commented that he was very surprised that the song made it to the top 10.
* First performances of Helsinki Jam and Space Dementia (with the guitar outro) since 2011.
* Agitated and Yes Please weren't on the setlist but were played. There was also a misunderstanding during Agitated as Dom started to play the outro of the song after the first chorus, while Matt and Chris were playing the song entirely. At the end, the song was played in its entirety.
* Yes Please was the abbreviated version - the first verse and chorus were played only.
* Muscle Museum, Showbiz, Fury and Eternally Missed were all played half a step down.
* This is the first time [[Tokyo Zepp 2013 (gig) | since 2013]] that Knights of Cydonia wasn't played in a non-promotional gig.
* If Agitated and Yes Please are not counted as songs but as outros, and if the voting category name is considered, then this has been first time since 2007 that Stockholm Syndrome has closed the set.
* As indicated on the setlist, Matt played guitar during the whole of Uprising for the first time since the [[Ischgl Ski Resort 2016 (gig)|Top of the Mountain]] gig in April 2016. This is a unique occurrence as since November 2015 Matt has only played guitar from the bridge onwards at the vast majority of gigs, leaving the guitar parts before then to touring member Morgan Nicholls.
* Last performances of Eternally Missed, Fury, Muscle Museum, and Helsinki Jam to date.

First show of 2018 after the release of Thought Contagion.

Information

Announced on February 15, 2018

Muse's second by request gig after the 2017 Shepherd's Bush one.

The show was streamed live on the band’s social channels (Facebook, Twitter/Periscope and YouTube) and included real time fan voting for 3 songs in the setlist. Ticket holders were able to choose their Top 5 tracks and all votes submitted were collated and used to curate the set on the night.

Tickets were available on 17 February. In an effort to combat touts there was a two ticket limit. In addition, names were printed on all tickets & you had to show valid government ID to enter the venue. Name changes on tickets were prohibited.

You can watch the whole show here or watch the individual clips by seeing the setlist below.

The official gallery from the gig can be seen on muse.mu.

Concert information

  • Thought Contagion made its live debut.
  • Eternally Missed was played for the first since 2002. Matt commented that he was very surprised that the song made it to the top 10.
  • First performances of Helsinki Jam and Space Dementia (with the guitar outro) since 2011.
  • Agitated and Yes Please weren't on the setlist but were played. There was also a misunderstanding during Agitated as Dom started to play the outro of the song after the first chorus, while Matt and Chris were playing the song entirely. At the end, the song was played in its entirety.
  • Yes Please was the abbreviated version - the first verse and chorus were played only.
  • Muscle Museum, Showbiz, Fury and Eternally Missed were all played half a step down.
  • This is the first time since 2013 that Knights of Cydonia wasn't played in a non-promotional gig.
  • If Agitated and Yes Please are not counted as songs but as outros, and if the voting category name is considered, then this has been first time since 2007 that Stockholm Syndrome has closed the set.
  • As indicated on the setlist, Matt played guitar during the whole of Uprising for the first time since the Top of the Mountain gig in April 2016.
