The same trumpeter that was drafted in for the Jools Holland performance, now known as Dan, was present at this performance for Knights of Cydonia and City of Delusion.[1] This gig was the first time City of Delusion has been played live in the U.K, and the first performance which featured a trumpeter. This concert was the only one on the UK arena tour at which Showbiz was played.

When the intro guitar part to Citizen Erased started following the intro percussion, it was apparent that Bellamy's guitar was out of tune. Following Bellamy tuning the guitar for a short period, the band proceeded to go straight into the song.[1] During the tuning period, Wolstenholme did some bass improvisation. Towards the end of the gig Bellamy threw a Randy Rhoads guitar into the crowd.[1]

Muse's last live performance of Showbiz to date.

Speech

After realising his seven string was out of tuneBellamy"Sorry, give, give us a sec". (watch)
Howard"You know sometimes stuff's just out of tune. It's just the way it goes, unfortunately. ... You know. it's rock and roll, what do you expect".
Before ShowbizBellamy"This is for people who weren't here last night".

At some point during the gig Bellamy said "how are you Manchester? You look good ... much better than last night anyway - that's for sure". Before City of Delusion he said that it was the first time they had played it in the UK.
