MUSE – Drones World Tour – Rogers Arena – December 10, 2015
Last week, British trio, Muse made a stop at Rogers Arena in Vancouver on their Drones World Tour. Oft considered one of the best live acts, the group has a reputation for putting on a spectacle that precedes them to the stage. This tour doesn’t disappoint, with 112 dates around the world, Muse are making sure that everyone gets a chance to experience their live presence.
Presented in the round, on the North American leg, Drones tour starts off with a symphonic display of illuminated aerial orbs leading to the arrival of the band. Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme, and Dominic Howard along with touring member Morgan Nicholls filled the arena with sounds, lights and technology for their two hour set. The set up of the stage kept the audience to the lower bowl and made it feel a lot most intimate than expected. The revolving central stage with catwalks to the ends ensure there’s no bad seats in the house. With a setlist including hits from all their studio albums plus the 2015 release, Drones, every fan had their best experience.
Drones Tour continues around North America through January before heading back to Europe. Catch them if you can and see why they’re one of the best live acts.
