Muse will perform inside Staples Center in September 2010,[1][2] for the second of two consecutive nights.[1] There were three ticket pre-sales.[1] The first took place through Concertmaps on the 13th of July from 10:00,[1] the second through Livenation on the 15th from 10:00[1] to 22:00[2] and the third through KROQ on the 16th from 10:00[1] to 22:00.[2] General sale started through Ticketmaster on the 17th at 10:00.[1][2][3] and through the Staples Center ticket office on the 26th.[3] There was a limit of 8 tickets per household.[2]

The towers experienced some malfunctions: While Chris's curtain didn't drop at the start of Uprising, Matt's curtain got caught on his guitar rack which then resulted in the rack including the guitars being pulled off the tower when the curtain was pulled down. This meant that the towers came down by the end of the song so that Matt could get the Double Neck for the next song. As a result, Resistance and New Born both had be played on the floor. The towers functioned normally again by the time the piano section arrived.

The outro riffs to Stockholm Syndrome lasted over 8 minutes and included 10 different riffs, one of the longest riff sessions in the history of Muse gigs.

This gig marks the first performance of Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) in the US and the first performance of Bliss in the US since Boston Agganis Arena in 2007.
