Part of The Resistance Stadium Tour

Information

Announced on the 22nd of November, 2009, Muse performed at Milan's San Siro, on June 8th, 2010, as part of The Resistance Stadium Tour. TicketOne pre-sale started on the 27th of November at 9AM and general sale started on the 30th, at 9AM.

Muse were supported by Kasabian, Friendly Fires and Calibro 35.

According to Chris, this was his favourite gig of the tour; When asked, via Twitter, which was the best date of the tour, Chris Tweeted (with typo) "Maybe the San Siro of possibly Old Trafford."

The show

As with other 2010 stadia concerts, "Bernie the UFO" was displayed during Exogenesis, with an acrobat hung underneath, and streamers with confetti were released during Guiding Light.

The most voted songs on the official setlist polls were Citizen Erased, Bliss, Showbiz, Plug In Baby and Hysteria, the latter two of which were played at the gig.

Coro "Happy B-Day Matt"

The gig took place the day before Matt's birthday. A 45 metre-long banner, on which "Happy B-Day Matt" was built up, was held opposite the stage. According to one attendee: "The banner wasn't printed, it was handmade by fans all over the country with garbage bags (black) and paper for the letters, then assembled at the stadium :D everyone was carrying a bit and it was fun to see it "coming together" during the preshow!"

The crowd sang a happy birthday chorus during the first encore break, during which coloured balloons were present among the crowd. This was organised over a period of six months, through Facebook, YouTube and the official Muse forums, by a group of Italian fans.
