Information

First teased as an upcoming Asian gig on February 16th, 2023, it was later confirmed on February 22nd, by both the band and promoter, Hello Universe, that the Asian gig would take place in Malaysia, in Kuala Lumpur, on July 29th. The venue was announced a week after, on February 28th. Ticket2U tickets went on-sale on March 3rd, 2023 at 10AM, local time, while GoLive presale started on March 2nd. On June 1st, 2023, Hello Universe officially announced that the venue has changed from the Bukit Kiara Equestrian Resort to the Bukit Jalil National Stadium, due to overwhelming response. [6]

This was only the second ever time that Muse has performed in Malaysia, the first of which was back in 2007.

Hello Universe, together with a local radio, Fly FM, were holding a competition for young bands. The winner had the chance to open for Muse on this gig. There were 7 finalists competing for the support slot.[7] On July 11th, 2023, Hello Universe officially announced that Kyoto Protocol'd be supporting the band.[8]

The Show

Muse took the stage an hour later than advertised.

After The 1975's incident in Malaysia, Muse's management reached out to Hello Universe to ensure the setlists comply with Malaysia's government guidelines.[9] This lead to We Are Fucking Fucked being removed from the setlist, due to it's title, and was replaced with Resistance. Dom would later dedicate the song to the LGBTQ+ community via an Instagram post.[10] Additionally the shirt Matt wore usually (with Will of the People graffiti logo on front and We Are Fucking Fucked graffiti bleeding on the back) was swapped for another shirt with a scribble art design instead.

Likely due to logistical issues, the show featured a festival stage with a festival setlist and production for most part despite the gig taking place in a stadium. The burning "WOTP" sign was not present during Will of the People and fire cannons were used for the first time during You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween (likely to compensate for the lack of We Are Fucking Fucked and its pyro show). The Manson MB-1 Blue guitar was also used for the first time since the Rock Werchter festival gig at the start of the month.

Media

The whole show was fan-filmed and can be seen here.
