United States of Eurasia (live)

This page contains a list of all known performances of United States of Eurasia.

Analysis and Explanation

As the first song to be released from The Resistance era, United States of Eurasia played a somewhat essential role in the tour setlists. Even after the end of the tour, United States of Eurasia returned for both The 2nd Law and Drones tours. Collateral Damage is still played as a live outro in the same role that it fills on the album. With the exception of the 2014 tour, it has been performed live every year since its debut. After just one appearance in 2015, United States of Eurasia took a slightly larger role in 2013 setlists because of a semi-regular setlist rotation after an appearance at the February 18, 2013 War Child show. This was performed uncommonly until July 2013, when United States of Eurasia was only performed a handful of times until the end of the year.

Almost two years after its last performance, United States of Eurasia made its return to setlists at the special Music For Life gig on September 11, 2015, only to be performed again over two months later as part of the Drones 360 Tour. It continued to make rare appearances before finally being dropped after May 2016. As well, the song was not particularly well-received by fans on the Drones tours, receiving criticism by many fans online (not because of the performance, however, but about the song itself being performed instead of more widely-held fan favourites such as Citizen Erased or Bliss).
