Part of The Unsustainable Tour. Night one at Emirates Stadium.

Information

Announced on the 19th of November 2012, Muse performed within Emirates Stadium on the 25th of May 2013, as part of the summer stadium tour. Pre-sale started at 09:30 local time on the 21st, and general sale on the 23rd.

Emirates stadium concert capacity was limited from a potential 72,000 to just 46,000 as it is in a residential area.

Muse didn't come onto the stage until 20:15, after Bastille: 18–18:30 and Dizzee Rascal: 19–19:45.

Matt started the wrong song during Supermassive. As a result he stopped the song and said "F*ck thought it was a different song".

During Panic Station Matt turned round to the visual of the UK prime minister and said "Come on David, Dance Motherf*cker"

Dead Star was played on this night (night one) despite Matt saying on Twitter it would be played on the second night.

Before Follow Me, Matt screamed "Arsenal" (Emirates is Arsenal's football clubs stadium) down the microphone and received loud boos from the crowd.

Matt dropped his guitar down the stairs during Uprising and threw it into the air 2 or 3 times.

Songs performed during sound check:

• Bomb Intro

• Liquid State
• Feeling Good
• United States of Eurasia
• Dead Star
• New Born
• Unintended

The Doctor Who theme tune was also played, but if this was by Muse or not remains unknown.
