The first of two gigs that took place in 2024.
Information
Announced on April 23rd, 2024, Muse are set to perform in Abu Dhabi's Du Arena/Etihad Park, as part of the Yasalam F1 Post-Race Concerts, on December 8th, 2024. This will be Muse's second time performing at the venue and at the event itself, with Muse's first Yasalam post-race concert taking place in 2013.
The Show
Staging-wise, the setup remained more or less the same as the festival production from the previous year but with some alternations; the burning "WOTP" sign was not present and the flamethrowers were notably smaller than before. Will the Hacker was present however and was revealed during Complicance, the same way as during the arena shows of the Will of the People World Tour. Also notably, Matt used his Manson Chrome FR guitar for the majority of the show.
While the length of the setlist echoed the previous festivals one, there were lots of changes to the order of the songs:
- Simulation Theory Theme / JFK opened the show, which was followed by Won't Stand Down which hadn't been played as the first song of a show since May 2022
- Resistance, Madness, and Plug in Baby were all played earlier in the show than usual, while Will of the People was played later than usual.
- Matt returned to playing the end of Compliance on guitar, something he's not done since January 2023.
- Pressure was played for the first time since March 2023.
- Hanging in Victory Square (from the Nineteen Eighty-Four score co-composed by Matt) was played live for the first time before Time is Running Out
- Behold, The Glove was not played as an intro to Uprising for the first time since May 2022
- The main set closed with Knights of Cydonia. Afterwards an unexpected encore was played consisting of Isolated System, Undisclosed Desires and Starlight. Matt wore his LED jacket during the whole encore, and confetti and streamers were released during the last chorus of Starlight.
