Part of The Resistance Stadium Tour

Information

Announced on the 22nd of November, 2009, Muse performed at Milan's San Siro, on June 8th, 2010, as part of The Resistance Stadium Tour.[1] TicketOne pre-sale started on the 27th of November[1] at 09:00[2] and general sale started on the 30th, at 9AM.[2]

According to Chris, this was his favourite gig of the tour; When asked, via Twitter, which was the best date of the tour, Chris Tweeted (with typo) "Maybe the San Siro of possibly Old Trafford." [3]

The show

As with other 2010 stadia concerts, "Bernie the UFO" was displayed during Exogenesis: Symphony, with an acrobat hung underneath.

The most voted songs on the official setlist polls were Citizen Erased, Bliss, Showbiz, Plug In Baby and Hysteria, the latter two of which were played at the gig.

Coro "Happy B-Day Matt"

The gig took place the day before Matt's birthday. A 45 metre-long banner, on which "Happy B-Day Matt" was built up, was held opposite the stage. According to one attendee: "The banner wasn't printed, it was handmade by fans all over the country with garbage bags (black) and paper for the letters, then assembled at the stadium :D everyone was carrying a bit and it was fun to see it "coming together" during the preshow!"

The crowd sang a happy birthday chorus during the first encore break, during which coloured balloons were present among the crowd. This was organised over a period of six months, through Facebook, YouTube and the official Muse forums, by a group of Italian fans.

Media

An MP3 copy of the performance can be found on MuseBootlegs.

The offcial recording of Resistance was broadcast in 2013 by Virgin Radio Italy for "Virgin Rock Live". It can be found here. A series of individual song pro-shots from different dates of the tour was released on Muse's YouTube channel in 2012, including a performance of Starlight at San Siro, which can be seen here.
