A special one-off show organised in the small venue Zepp at Tokyo's DiverCity Plaza. Part of the short five-gig Asian run of the tour.

Information

Futurism was played for the first time since 2000 and for the second time ever. Fury was also played for the first time since 2008. Hyper Music and Can't Take My Eyes Off You were given their tour debuts.

For the second encore, the band dressed in their Panic Station video costumes and were surrounded by dancers and members of the crew, also in random Japanese style costumes (i.e. Kirk was dressed up as a jug of milk).

At the end of the main set, Matt gave his Manson Matt Black (batch) to a guy from the audience. (See the Tweet)

Last performance of Can't Take My Eyes Off You to date.

Media

The full gig was filmed and recorded, and Tom Kirk stated online that it would be made into a film with assistance from videographer Tim Qualtrough.

Despite this announcement, the full gig has yet to be released but 6 individual songs have been.

• Futurism was released in December 2014 as the 2014 muse.mu Christmas present, and was also later released via the band's YouTube channel in January 2015. (The audio was edited in post-production to add a distortion vocal effect to Matt's voice to make it sound more inline with the studio version)
• The entire second encore (Panic Station, Supermassive Black Hole, Can't Take My Eyes Off You and Starlight) was released on the band's YouTube channel in April 2020, most likely as a gift to fans during the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Hyper Music (audio only) was released in December 2020 as the 2020 muse.mu Christmas present.
