Information
A private show. Ten pairs of tickets were made available in August 2003 through a competition by Warner in which participants had to choose which of the 6 promotional gigs they wanted to go to, and answer the following two questions:
- Which Stanley Kubrick film inspired the set design for Muse's latest video 'Time Is Running Out'?
- What is the release date of Muse's new album 'Absolution'?
Answers had to be sent to muse@warner.music.com. At the time of the original announcement, the date of this show was yet to be confirmed.[4] A further 15 pairs of tickets were made available to more winners of the aforementioned competition on 12th September 2003, when the date of the show was announced officially.[1]
500 tickets were given away by the show's sponsor—XFM—in competitions over the week following the 12th October announcement.[1]
The Show
A bit different and shorter version of the Pre-Sunburn riff was played after Bliss. Matt also played the Butterflies & Hurricanes guitar solo in a slightly different way.
