Analysis and Explanation

Showbiz was written sometime in late 1996 or early 1997, which gave the band some time to begin performing it live. It is assumed that Showbiz was first played live sometime in late 1997, and would have sounded very similar to this. Out of the two known 1998 setlists, Showbiz appears in the one that is complete. For 1999 Showbiz was performed at nearly every known concert. By midway-through 1999, Showbiz was performed at nearly every gig, with the exception of three gigs in August 2000 and some promotional dates, until the beginning of 2002.

The entire Showbiz era after the release of the album, Showbiz was used as the concert outro. Showbiz is almost always followed by an outro; in 1999, Execution Commentary was used as an outro if Showbiz ended the concert. Any point after 1999, however, used the Ashamed outro riff as the outro to Showbiz. By 2002 the band had just performed the song an estimated over three hundred times in the last three years and were possibly sick of the playing the song, as the song made only a handful of appearances in 2003 and 2004 and none at all in 2005. Showbiz returned again for another eleven performances in 2006 before being dropped permanently from the setlists.

A whole 11 years later, Showbiz was finally played again at 2017 Shepherds Bush Empire by-request show. According to Matt, Showbiz got almost half the votes by the ticket holders and after performing it he briefly said that it would be back, indicating that the song would return later. This proved to be true as the song was played at three further shows afterwards that year, as well as winning the fan vote again at the Paris Cigale 2018 by-request show. Matt jokingly said that every time they do by request that the song would probably always win. He also admitted that "it's a good tune".

The song made a three appearances late into the Simulation Theory World Tour in October 2019, mainly due to high fan demand. The song also made a surprise outing at the Rock Werchter Festival gig in July 2023 as the show closer, after technical and curfew issues meant the intended closer (Knights of Cydonia) couldn't be played.

The song will likely continue to make the odd appearance here and there for many years to come due to it's popularity within the band and fans.
