Unsustainable (live)

This page contains a list of all known performances of Unsustainable.

Analysis and Explanation

Unsustainable was a staple of The 2nd Law tour, even making appearances at all three 2014 dates. The band played the song instrumentally with Matt performing no backing vocals. For the Drones Tour, the song made a surprise reappearance in Shanghai when Muse could not play songs such as Uprising for political reasons and had to play other songs instead. It then appeared at every date until the Festival tour ended, however it has been skipped from every Drones 360 World Tour date so far. Unsustainable is likely to see a reappearance sometime in the summer as a result.
