Some songs like Stockholm Syndrome, Fury, Citizen Erased and more did not appear in the voting options. The voting ran from February 17th 14:00 (CET) till February 20th 24:00 (CET).
On the gig date, Muse ask fans on Facebook three questions about which song could they play:
- Which prog song should Muse play next? "Butterflies & Hurricanes" or "Citizen Erased"
- Which japanese bonus track should Muse play next? "Fury" or "Futurism"
- How should Muse end the set? "Knights of Cydonia" or "Stockholm Syndrome"

Song information
- Eternally Missed was played for the first since 2002. Matt commented that he was surprised that the song made it to the top 5.

- Yes Please was an abbreviated version - first verse and chorus only.
- Muscle Museum, Showbiz, Fury and Eternally Missed were all played half a step down.
- First performance of Helsinki Jam during this tour.
- This is the first time since 2013 that Knights of Cydonia wasn't played in a non-promotional gig.
