A smaller autumn tour, with fewer, smaller gigs set to take place in several theatres across both the USA and Europe.
 
== Information ==
 
The tour was announced on June 1st, 2022, with the gig at [[Berlin Admiralspalast 2009 (gig)|Berlin's Admiralspalast]] announced on June 11th. Tickets came on-sale on June 24th, 2022 at 10AM, local time, while pre-sale began on June 21st, 10AM local time. In Europe, pre-sale was accessed by ordering the album, [[Will of the People (album)|Will of the People]], from the official store, by 5PM, on 20th June. In North America, pre-sale was accessed by signing-in to the Members account for a unique code.
 
Touring began with a sold-out gig at [[Los Angeles Wiltern Theatre 2022 (gig)|The Wiltern Theatre]] in Los Angeles, on October 4th, 2022. The tour'll include a few stops at venues in which Muse haven't played in 20 years. These include the afforementioned Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles (Muse previously played at The Wiltern on [[Los Angeles Wiltern Theatre 2004 - 8th (gig)|December 8th]] and [[Los Angeles Wiltern Theatre 2004 - 8th (gig)|9th, 2004]]), the [[Chicago Riviera Theatre 2022 (gig)|Riviera Theatre in Chicago]] (last performance by Muse was on [[Chicago Riviera Theatre 2004 (gig)|November 13th, 2004]]), [[Milan Alcatraz 2022 (gig)|Alcatraz]] in Milan (Muse last performed during the Origin of Symmetry days, back in [[Milan Alcatraz 2001 (gig)|April of 2001]]) and [[Berlin Admiralspalast 2022 (gig)|Admiralspalast]], with Muse last performing there 13 years ago, in [[Berlin Admiralspalast 2009 (gig)|September of 2009]]. None of the venues exceed the 3,000 capacity, making this the smallest tour since the 2015 [[Psycho UK Tour|Psycho UK]] and [[Psycho US Tour|Psycho US]] tours.
 
Allthough the tour shares the same poster design with the Eventim Apollo charity gigs on [[London Eventim Apollo 2022 - 9th (gig)|May 9th]] and [[London Eventim Apollo 2022 - 9th (gig)|10th]], 2022, the tour and the charity gigs are their own separate thing, with the charity gigs' production being similar to that of the [[Will of the People Summer Festivals Tour|Summer Festival Tour]].
 
== Production & Setlist ==
 
The theatre tour features a simple design, with moving light heads attached to grid trussing, placed both behind and the sides of the band. Having moving lights on the grid allows for interesting effects, with two lights, one on each side of the stage, pointing at each other with narrow beams going across the stage. An example of this can be seen during the performance of Minimum. Apart from moving heads, dual-colour LED lights are also placed on the floor, surrounding the band, and underneath the drum riser (which is the same riser used during the festival tour), iluminating Dom's drum kit from below. As with most of the festival tour, no LED screens are used on-stage. The piano also returned on-stage, after not being used during the festival tour.
 
So far, [[We Are Fucking Fucked (song)|We Are Fucking Fucked]] got its debut on this tour, opening the sets. [[Minimum (song)|Minimum]] returned to the setlists after 20 years, being last performed in 2002. Additionally, [[Space Dementia (song)|Space Dementia]] was brought back to the US after 2004, as was [[Riffs_and_jams#The_Star-Spangled_Banner|The Star-Spangled Banner]], which returned after 9 years, played before [[Hysteria (song)|Hysteria]]. [[Riffs_and_jams#Toccata_and_Fugue_in_D_Minor|Toccata and Fugue in D Minor]] is played as an intro to [[You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween (song)|You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween]].
 
== Supporting Acts ==
 
It appears that support acts for the tour will be announced a few days before the gigs, with all of them being local bands. So far, in Los Angeles's Wiltern Theatre, Muse were supported by [[Taipei Houston]], while in Chicago's Riviera Theatre, [[Brigitte Calls Me Baby]] supported them. In Toronto, Muse are set to be supported by [[Softcult]].

=== Exceptions ===
 
* While the first few songs and the post-[[The Gallery (song)|The Gallery]] songs have fixed positions in the setlist, the middle section appears to have random song orders night by night (example being [[Minimum (song)|Minimum]], having another spot in the setlist each night).
* [[Nishe (song)|Nishe]] was squeezed into the setlist, despite not officially being part of it, before [[The Gallery (song)|The Gallery]] & [[Compliance (song)|Compliance]], at the [[Chicago Riviera Theatre 2022 (gig)|Riviera Theatre gig]] in Chicago, due to technical difficulties.
* [[Stockholm Syndrome (song)|Stockholm Syndrome]], [[Space Dementia (song)|Space Dementia]] & [[Minimum (song)|Minimum]] were placed after [[The Gallery (song)|The Gallery]] & [[Compliance (song)|Compliance]] at the Chicago gig.
* [[Will of the People (song)|Will of the Pople]] was used as an opener in Toronto instead of [[We Are Fucking Fucked (song)|We Are Fucking Fucked]]. The latter song was played after [[Hysteria (song)|Hysteria]].
* [[Psycho (song)|Psycho]] was played before [[Won't Stand Down (song)|Won't Stand Down]] at the Toronto gig, in the [[Citizen Erased (song)|Citizen Erased]] slot.

Official tour poster



A smaller autumn tour, with fewer, smaller gigs set to take place in several theatres across both the USA and Europe.

Information

The tour was announced on June 1st, 2022, with the gig at Berlin's Admiralspalast announced on June 11th. Tickets came on-sale on June 24th, 2022 at 10AM, local time, while pre-sale began on June 21st, 10AM local time. In Europe, pre-sale was accessed by ordering the album, Will of the People, from the official store, by 5PM, on 20th June. In North America, pre-sale was accessed by signing-in to the Members account for a unique code.

Touring began with a sold-out gig at The Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles, on October 4th, 2022. The tour'll include a few stops at venues in which Muse haven't played in 20 years. These include the afforementioned Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles (Muse previously played at The Wiltern on December 8th and 9th, 2004), the Riviera Theatre in Chicago (last performance by Muse was on November 13th, 2004), Alcatraz in Milan (Muse last performed during the Origin of Symmetry days, back in April of 2001) and Admiralspalast, with Muse last performing there 13 years ago, in September of 2009. None of the venues exceed the 3,000 capacity, making this the smallest tour since the 2015 Psycho UK and Psycho US tours.

Allthough the tour shares the same poster design with the Eventim Apollo charity gigs on May 9th and 10th, 2022, the tour and the charity gigs are their own separate thing, with the charity gigs' production being similar to that of the Summer Festival Tour.

Production & Setlist

The theatre tour features a simple design, with moving light heads attached to grid trussing, placed both behind and the sides of the band. Having moving lights on the grid allows for interesting effects, with two lights, one on each side of the stage, pointing at each other with narrow beams going across the stage. An example of this can be seen during the performance of Minimum. Apart from moving heads, dual-colour LED lights are also placed on the floor, surrounding the band, and underneath the drum riser (which is the same riser used during the festival tour), iluminating Dom's drum kit from below. As with most of the festival tour, no LED screens are used on-stage. The piano also returned on-stage, after not being used during the festival tour.

So far, We Are Fucking Fucked got its debut on this tour, opening the sets. Minimum returned to the setlists after 20 years, being last performed in 2002. Additionally, Space Dementia was brought back to the US after 2004, as was The Star-Spangled Banner, which returned after 9 years, played before Hysteria. Toccata and Fugue in D Minor is played as an intro to You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween.

Supporting Acts

It appears that support acts for the tour will be announced a few days before the gigs, with all of them being local bands. So far, in Los Angeles's Wiltern Theatre, Muse were supported by Taipei Houston, while in Chicago's Riviera Theatre, Brigitte Calls Me Baby supported them. In Toronto, Muse are set to be supported by Softcult.
