Muse played a bizarrely rarity-packed set at Tokyo tonight (Tuesday 13 August), dubbed by the band as 'their most amazing yet'. See the set list, videos and photos below.
They have also revealed that the show was filmed and it will be released in the near future. Taking to Twitter prior to the gig, the band's long-time friend, collaborator and video director Tom Kirk promised that the gig at The Zepp would have a few surprises in store.
He tweeted:
I say it "might be one of the most amazing Muse shows of all time"... But aren't they all...? (Good on em.) Therefore, it means #Everything
