Media

The show was broadcast live on two Spanish radio stations, 'Radio 3' and 'Radio Única'. Radio 3 broadcast four songs. Radio Única's broadcast was cut halfway through Butterflies & Hurricanes and returned just before the guitar solo of Invincible. Feeling Good, played between the two, was not broadcast at all, much to the annoyance of Muse fans across the world listening live. Take a Bow wasn't broadcast either because the radio station had thought that the concert was already finished. The rest of the songs were broadcast by them.

The Spanish TV channel 'Canal 33' broadcasted Hysteria. The English TV channel 'ITV2' broadcasted Knights of Cydonia, Starlight and Time Is Running Out.

On October 15, 2021 (more than 14 years after the event) the entire video recording of the gig was posted on YouTube by the channel "Best of Fest" and can be found here.

Radio Única's broadcast, along with an interview which was heard before the show, was recorded by a member of Muselive.com and is available here[registration needed]. 'NME' uploaded a short interview with Matt Bellamy before Muse's performance to YouTube and it can be seen here.
