Information

One of Muse's biggest gigs of the Absolution tour, in which they headlined Glastonbury Festival for the first time. This gig is often regarded as Muse’s greatest ever performance.

After Stockholm Syndrome, Dominic Howard's dad collapsed with a heart attack and died on-site. This was a very sad and hard time for the band.^[1]

The Show

Matthew Bellamy performed the Shuffle Dance during Time Is Running Out. During the end of Stockholm Syndrome the microphone on Howard's snare drum fell off—Bellamy pulled most of the drum-kit away. The stage was destroyed at the end of the gig.

At the end of Stockholm Syndrome Christopher Wolstenholme jumped into the crowd, playing the Execution Commentary riff from there before throwing his Pedulla RB5 back onto stage, and finally running it through the head of the bass drum.

At the end of Blackout when Matt puts his guitar on his head, you can see that his ring finger is bleeding.

Attire

Bellamy wore the 'lab coat'.
