== Information ==

Muse performed for Reading and Leeds Festivals 2011 as headliners.<ref name="mu20110321"/><ref name="ln20110321"/>  Muse had originally intended to end the [[The Resistance (album) | Resistance]] tour in 2010<!-- Wembley Stadium? -->.<ref name="zli">{{Cite/Zane Lowe 2011-08-09}}</ref>  Upon being offered to headline [[Leeds Bramham Park 2011 (gig) | Leeds]] and Reading festivals, however, the band decided to continue touring.<ref name="zli"/>  The first substantive rumours of Muse appearing at the festivals began in January, with VirtualFestivals including Muse among its headliner predictions, while implicitly claiming inside knowledge.<ref name="vf">{{cite/Virtual Festivals 2011-01-13}}</ref> [[Morgan Nicholls]] purportedly stated during [[NME awards#2011 | the NME Awards]] that the band would be performing.{{cite/none}}

From the point of accepting the headline slot, the band didn't wish for the the festivals to be part of the Resistance tour.<ref name="zli"/>  After the band pondered how to differentiate the occasion, [[Matthew Bellamy]] recalled that it was the tenth anniversary of [[Origin of Symmetry (album) | Origin of Symmetry]]'s release, and suggested that the album be performed during the festivals.<ref name="zli"/>

The [[Official Muse website | Muse website]] in mid-March announced, that Muse would be headlining the festivals, as a renaissance of sorts for Origin of Symmetry, including songs from across their "career[s] to date".<ref name="mu20110321"/>  [[Showbiz (album) |Showbiz]] and pre-Showbiz works of the Muse repertoire were not included within "career". Said announcement also stated that a stage, different from those used on the Resistance tour, would be used.

Bellamy later said on his twitter account that the band will "probably play Origin in its entirety" at the two festivals.<ref>

}}</ref>  In mid-August [[Christopher Wolstenholme]] confirmed that the entire album would be performed, while the band's intention was for it to be performed in order.<ref name="zli"/>  Wolstenholme claimed that five songs which hadn't been performed for a long time were causing the trio to worry, including ''Darkshines'' and ''Screenager''.<ref name="zli"/>

== The Show ==

"What's He Building" was used as an intro for the first time since the [[Origin of Symmetry (album) | Origin of Symmetry]] tour in 2002. A single curtain was lowered several minutes before the intro, and during it flashes of light behind band members revealed their shadows on the curtain, visible to the crowd and relayed on the side-screens. These flashes were synchronised to sounds in the intro track.

Once What's He Building had finished, Bellamy began the piano intro to New Born.<ref name="newborn-video">
{{cite |title=Muse @ Reading Festival - What's He Building? + New Born - 28/08/2011 | desc=Video of New Born at Reading | date=2011-08-28 | fetch=2011-09-23 | auth=BBC | auth2=xxnishexx | pub=YouTube | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aHMl20gMoc | dom=www.youtube.com | type=ext}}</ref> After said intro, he rose and walked to the stage-front, at which point the curtain was raised and his finger pointed upward in standard New Born teaser fashion.<ref name="newborn-video"/> For the beginning of Bliss, Bellamy triggered a synthesiser intro via his integrated Kaoss Pad, rather than playing the arpeggios on guitar like usual. The synthesiser intro appeared on the album and had been performed for some [[Absolution (album) | Absolution]]-era gigs<ref group="note">Need to specify which of both.</ref> and Leeds Festival, while the latter had been used for both the [[Black Holes and Revelations (album) | Black Holes and Revelations]] and The Resistance tours gigs.

Space Dementia featured a guitar outro, which had previously been used in 2006 as an outro to Knights of Cydonia. An example of such use as an outro can be found on the BBC television recording of [[Reading Little John's Farm 2006 (gig) | Reading Festival 2006]]. For Hyper Music, Wolstenholme sang the choruses in place of Bellamy, though with vocal effects applied to sound more similar to the latter. Hullaballoons were released during Plug In Baby,<ref name="setlist"/> which were mostly blown to the stage's right side by the wind.<ref group="note">I guess, given that, as best I can recall, the wind was blowing towards the band.</ref>

For Micro Cuts, lasers were used.<ref name="setlist"/> Before the descending riff, Bellamy breifly sang the falsetto harmony vocals, but came the time he stepped away from his microphone and neglected to sing them. Darkshines was played half-a-step down, likely due to the song's difficult vocals, and was shortened (first guitar solo was skipped and the second chorus was halved in length).  

As was the case at Leeds Festival, flamethrowers in the shape of a hand, named "flame fingers" on the set-list,<ref name="setlist"/> were used during Megalomania.<ref name="setlist"/> The flame-throwers were visibly shorter than at Leeds, however, due to portions of the stage having been melted by them.<ref>

Fireworks were set off at the end of Knights of Cydonia. Howard proceeded to thank the crowd afterwards and tell them that they were "fucking amazing" as usual, but did so in a more enthusiastic and lengthy manner (possibly due to the gig being the last Resistance era show).

The gig featured the last performances of [[Screenager (song) | Screenager]], [[Darkshines (song) | Darkshines]], and [[Megalomania (song)|Megalomania]] to date. Also the last performance of [[Undisclosed Desires (song)|Undisclosed Desires]] with Matt on keytar, and the last performance of Helsinki Jam until 2018.

BBC Three broadcast Muse's set, from 22:20–00:30 on the night of the performance.<ref>
{{cite |title=BBC Three Programmes - Reading and Leeds Festival, 2011, Muse | desc=Programme listing | fetch=2011-08-20 | med=website | pub=BBC website | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0147pmw | dom=www.bbc.co.uk | type=ext}}</ref> However, the broadcast only included 3 out of the 11 songs from Origin of Symmetry (New Born, Bliss, and Plug in Baby), with the rest edited out. In response to multiple fans complaining online over this decision, the BBC claimed that Muse only permitted them to show certain songs because they were not comfortable performing many songs from Origin of Symmetry.<ref>http://www.facebook.com/WeDemandTheOoSfootage</ref><ref>http://www.facebook.com/pages/2982011-The-day-Musers-proclaimed-war-on-the-BBC/153381448081400</ref><ref>http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dear-BBC3-were-coming-for-you-Sincerely-the-Muse-army/148726335214230?sk=wall</ref><ref>http://www.facebook.com/pages/BBC-is-not-pwoper/116900461744931</ref><ref>http://board.muse.mu/showthread.php?t=84458&page=24</ref> 

Muse would later release the full performance of all 11 songs off Origin of Symmetry from the show via the Muse 360 app in 2012, though the app has since been delisted. They also released a high-quality audio version of the performance in 2019 as part of the [[Origin of Muse (box set)|Origin of Muse]] boxset. 

Despite official means of watching the performance being limited, numerous fans have compiled the full performance using a combination of footage from the BBC broadcast, the 360 app, and fan video recordings. An example of this, by Muse Citizens, can be watched [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZwqR5EQVTE&ab_channel=MuseCitizens here]. Sp@ceH also made a recording, which can be obtained {{MbootTh |769}}.
