Part of The Unsustainable Tour. Night two in Stade de France.

Information

Announced on the 15th of November 2012, Muse performed within Stade de France on the 22nd of June 2013 as part of the summer stadium tour. Pre-sale started at 10:00 on the 26th November, and general sale at 10:00 on the 28th.

The Show

During the song roulette, the ball once again landed on the green slot. However, unlike previous gigs, Matt did not ask the crowd what song to play. Instead, Dead Star was already printed on screen and played, with Micro Cuts seen alongside as an alternate option.

Later on, during the song, a TIFO - orginised by French fan group Muse France - was deployed showing the word "MUSE" with illuminated balloons. Matt, taken aback by the display (asking "How do you do that? I don't understand!" (watch), decided to spin the roulette wheel again, with New Born being selected and played. The decision to play New Born was likley spontanious as a result of the TIFO. Another TIFO was also erected djring the show, showing "PARIS STATION" in illuminated letters.

At the end of Uprising, Matt threw his guitar many times in the air, landing on the ground. For the last throw, the guitar went really close to Dom's head, so he stopped playing and bent over his drumkit to avoid being hit.

Media

Prior to the gig, Muse asked fans attending the gigs to film Unsustainable and send it to them. They later took most of the footage and edited it together to make an official multi-camera edit with pro-audio recording from the gig. This can be watched here.
