09:41 Aaahhh that end riff... People in 2004 weren't ready yet. That riff was reborn again in the song Psycho in 2015. Them playing live is insane!

That riff reminds me the really heavy one in Funeralopolis by Electric Wizard. Just immensly heavy, catchy and funky almost

They were headliners to Glastonbury for third time in 2016 and became the first ever band that managed to be headliners for 3 times in this festival. They have the reputation of the best live modern band

Matt plays piano on the studio verion but obviously can't play both that and guitar live so they have a guy called Morgan playing the piano parts of songs live, if its just piano though Matt plays those parts, check out Butterflies and Hurricanes and you will see how good he is

Agreed one of my favourites

Chris (bassist) kept switching between fingers and a pick during this, which is probably why you thought there was another guitarist. Hard song to play at speed with fingers, especially at the end of a gig.

Just in case you’re wondering, Morgan Nicholls plays instruments on tour for songs that take more than 3. He’s usually off stage but u will see him occasionally in live performances in the background. Also, Matt Bellamy held the world record for guitar smashing live during their absolution tour. Def real guitars.

Yeah, it does seem like they go out of their way to not acknowledge Morgan being there on stage and have him out of shot for most camera angles. I've never understood that, there's no shame in having an extra guy on stage playing some parts.

@@chrismartin2663 Morgan isn't on stage during this performance. He wasn't playing with the band live until their next tour. And they don't really hide him. He's usually right next to Dom's drum kit. I guess the cameras don't focus on him much because he isn't officially in the band (at Morgan's request), but he's become more prominent in their live shows in recent years as they have more and more instruments they need played live.

He was thanking the crowd at the beginning, this was the encore if you like, they headlined this festival and played a good hour if not more.

I know I'm super late. But, Morgan wasn't touring with the band at this point. They brought him in after they released the Black Holes Album. The piano part here is a backing track

Matt is an excellent pianist and plays all the piano bits in the studio, he's only got 2 hands like the rest of us mere mortals though^^ Check out "Space Dementia" live @Hullabaloo , "Butterflies and Hurricanes" live @Wembley or "Ruled by Secrecy" live @Glastonbury 2004 to see him go nuts on that piano. He is ridiculously talented

That was the closing Song on a 15 track set

The guitars are custom made Manson guitars (which Matt now owns). They just replace any broken parts and get it ready for next gig. They are a 3 piece for writing and recording, for playing live they have a 4th guy (Morgan) who plays all the additional instruments needed for the song. He has no creative input and is essentially a stage hand but has his own little station that they didn't used to show as much but these days he gets a good amount of screen time. So technically they are a 3 piece they just perform as a 4 piece these days.

Morgan hadn't joined them during live shows yet, so during the Absolution tour, it had to be playback for the supplemental instruments like keys and synths. I think Morgan joined Muse for their live shows during the Black Holes Tour for their next album.

listen to Space Dementia, Pinkpop Festival 2004, Matt gives his best on the piano! 😀

Hey guys, Muse is a three piece band, however for live shows they include a back-up for fill by the name Morgan, who sometimes plays guitar and also organ. It is he who is on the keys in this song.

At the encore of the song when Matt was standing on the amp, they later made that piece in the song Psycho.

The arpeggios you can hear in this track are on synth. There is also a piano part played by a session musician, Morgan Nichols, although the lead singer / guitarist is also the pianist in studio, and also on many live tracks. There is an effect similar to what you mentioned on Map Of The Problematique referred to as “step-flange”

Yes!! More Muse Live reactions! You guys rock!

The balloons are powered and controlled by cables, just like the aerial cameras are moved around above the crowd/stadium.

Love this been wanting you all to react to British music for a while now. Radiohead creep live is so epic!!

It's always a great watch seeing reactioners trying to take Muse in all at once,hey,I've been a fan since 1998,and they are still amazing to watch and try to take in...just makes you watch again,and again. As a few other comments have already stated,Muse use another musician on stage when playing live,who handles all the keyboard work,except when Matt plays the piano,and he is as every bit as good on that as his guitar. Awesome reaction guys,more Muse,and more of The Warning ! Had to plug them.

They played 14 tracks in this Glastonbury set.

Such a brilliant end to the gig but as this was happening the drummers dad had a heart attack back stage and died really really sad and can't imagine the high to low that dom the drummer felt

Matt holds the World record for number of guitars smashed on stage!

There is forth member, Morgan Nichols. Don't think he was on stage at this concert, but he usually is see on stage with Muse at the others. He is next to the drummer, Dom, when he is on stage.

I saw a video buy the company that makes the guitars matt uses, and it shows what I'm pretty sure is the guitar he uses here (it was broken in the video) and it was definitely his guitar and iirc it was made specifically for him, matt also said in an interview that his guitars are made so that the neck breaks and the body doesn't, and the neck can detach, so he just replaces the neck and often the body is find when he throws it

You guys need to watch this entire concert, One of their best live performances... Really Sad though, as they were having the time of their lives @ the End - Dominic (The Drummers Dad who came to watch him @ the show died of a heart attack).. I really like both of you guys! You actually sit back and take it all end and "Listen"

Matt Bellamy has world record of guitar smashes in one tour lol

Plus he’s not a member. He’s a touring musician. Lots of acts have extra help on tour to recreate album sounds since you can’t play multiple instruments at once and it’s so much better than using playback. However, they’re employees or contractors. Morgan has no creative input and isn’t even playing on any of the studio albums. He’s a great musician, but he’s not in Muse.

‘Glaston-berry’ aw 😂

That's not their entire set. They played about 10 songs there

A quick recommend (also added more detail in the other muse stockhone syndrome reaction yesterday ) Skunk anasie from glasto 1999 Charlie big potato:kzread.info/dash/bejne/pWar0Lptm7ercbQ.html Twisted: kzread.info/dash/bejne/l4J629NmkqmvYLQ.html First time I saw muse it was as support to skunk anansie, and for me, to this day, IMHO skin is among the very best voices in rock, let alone the best female ones.

Try to react to Muse Bliss live Zenith 2001 is crazy.

Until 2005 Muse were three in live shows.

the piano arpeggios...

It’s a chunky serj tankian

They headlined Glastonbury would have been at least an hour.

Guys, get over it - it's fricking synced for the chorus - you talk over literally half the song. Otherwise you're both quite entertaining. Just saying.
