Absolution promo gig.

Information

A private show promoting Absolution.

Ten pairs of tickets were made available through a competition by Warner Music in which participants had to choose which of the six promotional gigs they wanted to go to, and answer the following two questions:

  1. Which Stanley Kubrick film inspired the set design for Muse's latest video 'Time Is Running Out'?
  2. What is the release date of Muse's new album 'Absolution'?

Answers had to be sent to muse@warner.music.com.[3]

The Show

Although there is no recording of the song, The Small Print was played for the first time in its final version at this concert.

The Bliss intro was played on the keyboard for first time too (apart from its demo version back in 2000).

Matt messed up the lyrics on the second pre-chorus of Stockholm Syndrome.

Chris took turns between the keyboard and bass to play the bassline of Time is Runnig Out.

Media

This gig is available on the unofficial DVD called Box In Ring. The encore consisting of Muscle Museum, Micro Cuts, and The Small Print were not broadcast. A rip of a partial FM radio broadcast is available in lossless (FLAC) format here or on MuseBootlegs here. There is also a Box In Ring DVD audio rip in lossless (FLAC) format available here.

You can find Box In Ring on MuseBootlegs here.
