Announced by the Muse website on the 25th of January.[2] The band had been planning to visit Dubai on holiday and so decided to pay for the holiday by performing at the Dubai Desert Rock Festival.[4] The festival was promoted by Center Stage Management.[1] This gig contained the last performance of Man of Mystery to date.

Sometime before the concert the band rehearsed Uno, playing it for the first time in five years. They then ran through it a second time in a very fast motion. A band member later wrote online how much they enjoyed this.[5]

Speech

After Hysteria Bellamy "Hey Dubai, how're you doing?"[6]
After Fury "Thanks very much, cheers".
After Take a Bow "Thank you Dubai! We love you".

Media
