Part of The Drones World Tour 2015/16. Last American stop of the tour.

Information

There was an event surrounding this gig, where a few select Musers could win the opportunity to sing with Muse. Two winners were selected and Muse played Plug In Baby and Starlight with them during the soundcheck. Plug In Baby would not actually be performed at the gig later that night. Watch the performances here (Plug in Baby) and here (Starlight). This Starlight performance was also the first time Matt played guitar in it since 2015.

After being soundchecked a couple of times before previous gigs, Citizen Erased was finally played. It was the first of the few times Citizen Erased was paused in the middle for a water break.

After the show, the band were given a Muse flag made by North American and Mexican fans, made from various pieces of cloth with the fans' messages to Muse.
