Overview
- The band played their first public concert since 2018 at Madrid’s 17,000-capacity Movistar Arena on November 4, opening with “Let Down” and closing with “Karma Police.”
- A 25-song set mixed hits and rarities, including the first “Sit Down. Stand Up.” since 2004 and the first “Subterranean Homesick Alien” since 2017.
- The show featured a new in-the-round production with moving mesh/video panels and added percussionist Chris Vatalaro performing alongside drummer Philip Selway.
- The European run spans 20 dates through December with multi-night stops in Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen and Berlin, with reports that setlists may vary night to night.
- Tickets were sold via pre‑registration and included a €1 donation to Médecins Sans Frontières (matched by the band), and reviews described the opener as a powerful, well-received return as boycott calls did not visibly disrupt the event.
