Dave's Reaction: Muse - Assassin

[@aaron2k026]

They've played this song 12 times since Feb 2018, one of which was at the Apollo shows in London 2022, (which I was there for😎) and they played an extended version of it where Chris sang backing vocals including the forbidden lyrics you mentioned😎 it's so much better when you can hear them

Insanely good reaction to an insanely good band and song!

[@Tracertravis]

Should listen to Assassin (Grand Omega Bosses Edit) after this. Way heavier than the origional :)

[@GutterBallet]

This is definitely one of my 2 or 3 favorite songs from them. The studio version is great, but the live versions are truly slammin’. Glad you’re listening to the studio versions because it shows you just how good they are live. A lot of times you can’t tell the difference between the two. Thanks guys.

I really love Assassin and the GOBE version. Couldnt choose which I prefer. Love elements of both. But the ‘breakdown’ in the edit version is soooo good.

Saw Assassin with the Grand Omega Bosses Instrumental Edit in Newport on the Psycho Tour. Not in a swimming pool but it was in a leisure centre, does that count? Amazing live. Only time in 15 gigs...This and MK Ultra are rare treats. The Grand Omega Bosses Edit does also have some additional guitar work and a breakdown with added verses (unsure how often they have sung the verses live).

I was at this gig top 🤘

May 11th 2022 I saw them play Assassin at Hammersmith Apollo for a charity gig. I nearly lost my friend because it went so nuts🤣😂

[@samechick]

I can just imagine how nuts it can get with this one.

The first time I heard this song live was in Belfast, Northern Ireland, 2015, Matt couldn't remember how to play it, tried the start, gave up haha and the crowd yelled - but they did play it when they came back

[@AnaPaulaBOliveira]

it is my dream to see with my own two eyes this song being played live! Great song, great reaction!

[@michelkirby6025]

They played it at The Wiltern Los Angeles in 2023. It was the Grand Omega Bosses version. You watched this version live. It was fantastic!

[@wewantthecup]

Of 48 gigs, I've witnessed it (in full) twice. My second Muse gig in 2007, and at the Mayan in 2015, which is an all-time version since the band published it in amazing quality. They played is in 2023 I believe, in Philadephia.

[@wewantthecup]

They also had a snippet of the song in their "metal medley" for the Simulation Thoery Tour, and I saw that a few times as well, with a giant puppet creeping behind & over the stage

[@samechick]

The Simulation Theory tour movie is amazing, I can't imagine how much fun it would be to be in the audience for that.

[@sayyidmd9963]

Thank youu Assassins is always the great one

[@blue-burst]

Have you reacted to them playing popcorn? I don't think you have, i made a search and nothing came up. Muse played it live at tarata and it's up on YT :) The background vocals on this song is great!

[@samechick]

Not yet!

[@DarkPsyence]

They definitely didn't play this at the 2 Muse shows I saw last year, shame.

[@dkshines]

Muscle Museum a different take please in SOMBRERO HAT also ♥♥♥

[@dsxndoval]

Scream - A7X 👀

[@Sonofdonn]

if you like heavy hitting riffs and serious drumming, id suggest you check out TesseracT! They're a progressive metal 5-piece from the UK with some serious talent. If you had Dave react to something like Legion or Juno it'd be really cool to see :)

Hey kids, try motor head ' ace of spades ' please.

[@maxduggan6485]

Please do the small print 2024 anniversary version 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@pendleeldnep]

a good un

[@SF-vl1ty]

Is that a Pooh mug?😅

[@samechick]

Lol it is. I bought that from DW probably before I even met Dave. Surprisingly it has managed to stay in one piece after all these years.
