The concert was announced on the 21st of October,[4] the reason citing "unbelievable" demand for the previous night's pre-sale.[4] General sale started on the 23rd October 2004 at 09:00.[4] More tickets were put on sale on the 19th of November at 09:00 through gigsandtours.com.[5]

This was the 'black jacket' gig and featured a slightly different set list to the night before.

Dominic Howard and Christopher Wolstenholme opened up the gig, while Matthew Bellamy ran around backstage with a camera (as he did the previous night).[3] However, this time Matthew Bellamy had a monkey hand puppet on which he danced around on camera.[3]

After The Small Print, Bellamy broke the Ibanez guitar he was playing, picked it up, walked to the edge of the stage and threw his guitar into the audience.[3] The Micro Cuts ending slowed down to an almost complete stop. Thomas Kirk said that Blackout "was fucking ace", in response to the question "how cool was blackout! ;)".[6]

These were the last performances of Glorious, Ruled by Secrecy and The Small Print in the UK.

After Plug In Baby "Thank you!"
After Time Is Running Out "Cheers!"
Before Blackout Bellamy "Thank you very much, cheers [...] Ok, this next song, instead of getting your lighters out, everyone get out their mobile phones and switch their lights on".
Before Stockholm Syndrome Bellamy "Thank you very much Earls Court! Thank you very much for coming, it's been a fucking great pleasure to play for you. Means a lot coming home to a big crowd like this, so thanks very much for coming. This is uh, we'd like to say, a very merry Christmas and a happy new year".
Howard "Merry Christmas. [...] Cheers. We'll see you next time, this song is called Stockholm Syndrome".
After Stockholm Syndrome "Thank you very much Earls Court! You guys have been amazing".
Wolstenholme "Cheers".
Howard "Cheers, we'll see you next time".
