'''The Unsustainable Tour''', also known as '2013 Summer Stadium Tour', was Muse's second largest tour up to this day, followed only by the [[Simulation Theory World Tour]] in 2019. It included various production elements, from a giant robot patrolling the stage to a floating light bulb, to big fire balls bursting out of the stage's very own "chimneys". The tour took place during Summer of 2013.

===Stage Set-Up===
'''The Unsustainable Tour''', also known as the '''2013 Summer Stadium Tour''', was Muse's second largest tour to this day, followed by the [[Simulation Theory World Tour]] in 2019. It included various production elements, from a giant robot patrolling the stage, to a floating light bulb, to big fire balls bursting out of the stage's very own chimneys. The tour took place during Summer of 2013.  
[[File:UnsustainableTour_StageDesign.jpg | thumb | 130px | right | Stage Set-Up for The Unsustainable Tour]]
The stage for the stadium tour was completely different to that of the arena tour. There was no pyramid. Instead chimneys lined the back of the stadium, releasing fire at various points of the gig.


Chris began joining Matt shaking hands with fans during Undisclosed Desires.

The first gigs of the tour were announced in November of 2012. The tour started with four gigs in the UK before going on to mainland Europe and finishing in Helsinki. Allthough some teaser photos were posted, not much has been known about the production and what was to come up until the very first gig. Because of that, when Muse held production rehearsals at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, testin fire cannons on top of the stage, people living nearby thought the arena caught on fire.


The roulette from [[The 2nd Law Tour]] remained.
The tour featured [[Dracula Mountain (song)|Dracula Mountain]] becoming the set staple as one of the two drum and bass jams. The shows featured an intro piece called the [[Intro_music#The_2nd_Law_of_Thermodynamics|The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics]] or the ''Bomb Intro'', as it was called on the setlists, which segwayed into [[Supremacy (song)|Supremacy]]'s elongated intro. Both of these elements were exclusive to this tour. The last show of the tour also featured debuts of [[Yes Please (song)|Yes Please]], being played for the first time since 2000 and [[Agitated (song)|Agitated]], played for the first time since 2001. The first and only tour which featured Starlight as a closer.


=== Support Bands ===
Matt ditched the guitar on Starlight and, like the arena tour, shook hands of the audience during Undislosed Desires, joined by Dom and Chris in doing so after leaving the B-Stage.


There was a wide range of support bands, including [[Paramore]], [[Biffy Clyro]], [[The 1975]], Dizzee Rascal, Calibro 35, Datarock, Fun., [[Bastille]], [[Arcane Roots]], We Are The Ocean, Deaf Havana and many more.
== Support Bands ==


===Typical setlist===
There was a wide rage of support bands for the tour. The UK shows featured support acts by [[Dizzee Rascal]] and [[The 1975]], joined by [[Bastille]], who also went on to open for the band in mainland Europe with [[Biffy Clyro]], You Don't Know Me, L.A., [[We Are The Ocean]], [[Arcane Roots]], [[SX]], [[Balthazar]], [[Fun]], Polly Money and [[Paramore]]. [[Dizzee Rascal]] also returned for the second Paris night. [[Skip The Use]], [[Calibro 35]], [[Datarock]], [[Deaf Havana]], [[French Films]] and [[Mew]] were also part of the support act line-up for the tour.


The setlist structure was similar to that of the arena tour, albeit longer and with a slow section played on the B-stage.
== Stage Setup and Production ==
 
=== Stage Design ===
 
Designed to represent a power house, the stage for the stadium tour was completely different to that of the arena tour and was reminiscent to that of the H.A.R.P. tour, with long wings and a long cat-walk, connecting the B-Stage to the main stage. Compared to the arena tour, there was no physical moving 3D pyramid present, however, the LED screens behind the band were designed to project the pyramids' visuals onto them, vaguely mimicking the pyramid being there. The LED screen half-circle behind the band however did remain, as did the roulette and all other elements which were projected on it during the arena tour.
 
Keeping with the theme of the power house, the stage featured six large illuminated "chimneys" on top of the trussing, releasing big balls of fire and smoke at various points of the gig.
 
=== Charles The Robot ===
 
One of the main attractions of the tour was Charles the Robot, a large, approximately 3-metre tall robot with red lit-up eyes and mouth, who patrolled the stage during Unsustainable and sometimes came out in the audience before the show. The robot was operated remotely by the crew of Cirque Bijou, a collection of performers who Muse previously worked with on both the H.A.A.R.P. and The Resistance stadium tours. More on Charles [[Charles the Robot|here]].
 
=== Floating Light Bulb ===
 
Also from Cirque Bijou,a large floating light bulb appeared above the audience during Blackout, housing an acrobat, who, when the solo kicked in, jumped out of the bottom, released some confetti and performed aerial stunts while held on ropes attached to the bulb. The act was the same to that of the floating Hullabaloon act during the H.A.A.R.P. tour, and the UFO during The Resistance stadium tour.
 
=== Muso Confetti ===
 
Special confetti were used during Animals - an Euro copy, known as "The Muso". The band used a 20 Muso note, which was designed to resemble a 50 Euro bill, the most widely circulated Euro denomination. The banknotes were inspired by the Foo Fighters dollar confetti, which the band liked, so they contacted Lee Martin and Morning Breath to design their own confetti money.
 
The Euro-inspired confetti were replaced by the Dollar-inspired ones for the [[Indio Empire Polo Field 2014 - 12th (gig)|Coachella gigs]] in 2014. These gigs weren't part of the tour however.
 
=== The actors ===
 
This was the first tour to feature actors performing during certain songs. Two actors were present, one during Feeling Good and the other during Animals. The actress during Feeling Good represented an office worker who was stressed out by the job which resulted in her drinking and dying by drinking gasoline. The actor during Animals represented a "filthy" banker (who was also present in the visuals for the song during both arena and stadium shows), who went on stage during the last part and started throwing Musos in the audience, before, at the end, when confetti was released, being completely engulfed in money, resulting in a heart-attack and his death. Both characters were placed into coffins below the catwalk during Undisclosed Desires, allowing Matt and the camera to go in and show the audience the two being dead.
 
== Live at Rome Olympic Stadium ==
 
Muse's fourth ever live DVD, titled ''Live at Rome Olympic Stadium'', was filmed in Rome, showcasing the tour. This was their first 4K live film, which was premiered on November 29th, 2013 as a special one-off screening across various movie theatres across 20 cities worldwide and 40 other locations the next day. The band attended the premiere at La Géode in Paris, France. The movie was directed by the same director who directed the H.A.A.R.P. DVD. It was released in DVD and CD formats, with audio being mixed by Chris Lord-Alge.
 
More on the DVD [[Live at Rome Olympic Stadium (live)|here]].
 
== Typical Setlist ==
 
The setlist structure was similar to that of the arena tour, albeit longer and with a slow section played on the B-stage.  At certain gigs, the setlists were shortened and modified to fit the setting of the stage (such as at the Waldbuhne gig in Berlin) but overall, the tour featured one of the longest setlists to date.


Blackout returned to setlists for the first time since 2007 and [[Unintended (song)|Unintended]] for the first time since 2010. Guiding Light also made a return.

The Unsustainable Tour, also known as the 2013 Summer Stadium Tour, was Muse's second largest tour to this day, followed by the Simulation Theory World Tour in 2019. It included various production elements, from a giant robot patrolling the stage, to a floating light bulb, to big fire balls bursting out of the stage's very own chimneys. The tour took place during Summer of 2013.

Information

Stage design
Charles the Robot
Lightbulb acrobat and the actors
Muso and Muse Dollar

The first gigs of the tour were announced in November of 2012. The tour started with four gigs in the UK before going on to mainland Europe and finishing in Helsinki. Allthough some teaser photos were posted, not much has been known about the production and what was to come up until the very first gig. Because of that, when Muse held production rehearsals at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, testin fire cannons on top of the stage, people living nearby thought the arena caught on fire.

The tour featured Dracula Mountain becoming the set staple as one of the two drum and bass jams. The shows featured an intro piece called the The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics or the Bomb Intro, as it was called on the setlists, which segwayed into Supremacy's elongated intro. Both of these elements were exclusive to this tour. The last show of the tour also featured debuts of Yes Please, being played for the first time since 2000 and Agitated, played for the first time since 2001. The first and only tour which featured Starlight as a closer.

Matt ditched the guitar on Starlight and, like the arena tour, shook hands of the audience during Undislosed Desires, joined by Dom and Chris in doing so after leaving the B-Stage.

Support Bands

There was a wide rage of support bands for the tour. The UK shows featured support acts by Dizzee Rascal and The 1975, joined by Bastille, who also went on to open for the band in mainland Europe with Biffy Clyro, You Don't Know Me, L.A., We Are The Ocean, Arcane Roots, SX, Balthazar, Fun, Polly Money and Paramore. Dizzee Rascal also returned for the second Paris night. Skip The Use, Calibro 35, Datarock, Deaf Havana, French Films and Mew were also part of the support act line-up for the tour.

Stage Setup and Production

Stage Design

Designed to represent a power house, the stage for the stadium tour was completely different to that of the arena tour and was reminiscent to that of the H.A.R.P. tour, with long wings and a long cat-walk, connecting the B-Stage to the main stage. Compared to the arena tour, there was no physical moving 3D pyramid present, however, the LED screens behind the band were designed to project the pyramids' visuals onto them, vaguely mimicking the pyramid being there. The LED screen half-circle behind the band however did remain, as did the roulette and all other elements which were projected on it during the arena tour.

Keeping with the theme of the power house, the stage featured six large illuminated "chimneys" on top of the trussing, releasing big balls of fire and smoke at various points of the gig.

Charles The Robot

One of the main attractions of the tour was Charles the Robot, a large, approximately 3-metre tall robot with red lit-up eyes and mouth, who patrolled the stage during Unsustainable and sometimes came out in the audience before the show. The robot was operated remotely by the crew of Cirque Bijou, a collection of performers who Muse previously worked with on both the H.A.A.R.P. and The Resistance stadium tours. More on Charles here.

Floating Light Bulb

Also from Cirque Bijou,a large floating light bulb appeared above the audience during Blackout, housing an acrobat, who, when the solo kicked in, jumped out of the bottom, released some confetti and performed aerial stunts while held on ropes attached to the bulb. The act was the same to that of the floating Hullabaloon act during the H.A.A.R.P. tour, and the UFO during The Resistance stadium tour.

Muso Confetti

Special confetti were used during Animals - an Euro copy, known as "The Muso". The band used a 20 Muso note, which was designed to resemble a 50 Euro bill, the most widely circulated Euro denomination. The banknotes were inspired by the Foo Fighters dollar confetti, which the band liked, so they contacted Lee Martin and Morning Breath to design their own confetti money.

The Euro-inspired confetti were replaced by the Dollar-inspired ones for the Coachella gigs in 2014. These gigs weren't part of the tour however.

The actors

This was the first tour to feature actors performing during certain songs. Two actors were present, one during Feeling Good and the other during Animals. The actress during Feeling Good represented an office worker who was stressed out by the job which resulted in her drinking and dying by drinking gasoline. The actor during Animals represented a "filthy" banker (who was also present in the visuals for the song during both arena and stadium shows), who went on stage during the last part and started throwing Musos in the audience, before, at the end, when confetti was released, being completely engulfed in money, resulting in a heart-attack and his death. Both characters were placed into coffins below the catwalk during Undisclosed Desires, allowing Matt and the camera to go in and show the audience the two being dead.

Live at Rome Olympic Stadium

Muse's fourth ever live DVD, titled Live at Rome Olympic Stadium, was filmed in Rome, showcasing the tour. This was their first 4K live film, which was premiered on November 29th, 2013 as a special one-off screening across various movie theatres across 20 cities worldwide and 40 other locations the next day. The band attended the premiere at La Géode in Paris, France. The movie was directed by the same director who directed the H.A.A.R.P. DVD. It was released in DVD and CD formats, with audio being mixed by Chris Lord-Alge.

More on the DVD here.

Typical Setlist

The setlist structure was similar to that of the arena tour, albeit longer and with a slow section played on the B-stage. At certain gigs, the setlists were shortened and modified to fit the setting of the stage (such as at the Waldbuhne gig in Berlin) but overall, the tour featured one of the longest setlists to date.

Blackout returned to setlists for the first time since 2007 and Unintended for the first time since 2010. Guiding Light also made a return.

  • Explorers was played instead of Sunburn / United States Of Eurasia on two occasions, both in Italy.
  • Near the middle of the tour, Butterflies & Hurricanes / Dead Star were replaced with Map of the Problematique / Interlude + Hysteria, however Butterflies & Hurricanes and Dead Star both made one more appearance in this slot.
  • During the second night at Paris the roulette was used twice. On the first run, the ball landed in the green slot, but unlike previous gigs, Matt did not ask the crowd what song to play. Instead, Dead Star was already printed on screen and Micro Cuts was seen alongside as an alternate option. On the second run, the usual Stockholm Syndrome / New Born roulette was shown. This extra song being played in the main set resulted in Guiding Light being dropped later on.
  • During the final gig of the tour in Helsinki, Bliss was on the setlist but wasn't played. However, after Stockholm Syndrome Muse spontaneously played Agitated and Yes Please. This was their first time being played since 2001/2000.
