Information

Announced on August 23rd, 2021, Muse will be headlining the OpenAir St. Gallen Festival in St. Gallen, Switzerland, on July 2nd, 2022.

This marks 18 years since Muse have performed at the OpenAir St.Gallen festival, last time being in 2004 during the Absolution Tour.

The Show

Map of the Problematique was on the setlist but Citizen Erased was played instead. This was because Matt saw a fan holding up a sign saying "Citizen Please" and thus decided to play the song.

During Madness, Matt changed the lyrics from 'Now, I need to know is this real love' and instead sung "Now, I need to know is this a real surgical glove".

Speech

Before Citizen Erased	Bellamy	"Yeah we were gonna play Map, we were gonna play Map, but we saw that sign down there...(points) 'Citizen Please', it says, so...takes a minute to get the sounds together hold on. But we're going to play the song called Citizen Erased from the album Origin of.....Symmetry." (and after someone in the crowd shouted to play Showbiz) "hah, do I have to do this again as well?"
Before Kill or Be Killed	Bellamy	"Hey you guys! You guys are amazing! Woo hoo. Uh, we'll play a new song now coming out on the new album in August, Will of the People. Uhm. This song is called Kill or be Killed. I think we're gonna put it out actually maybe in a couple of weeks 'cause some people on Reddit like it. (giggles)"
