Muse are playing arenas whereas Coldplay are doing stadiums. More Muse tickets went on sale today, funnily enough

We aren't 'most people' though, Couchy. We're sarcastic, pedantic, obsessive, bitter, music snobs who post on a forum all day. 

That's why we know best and everyone else? They're idiots.

We're sarcastic, pedantic, obsessive, bitter, music snobs who post on a forum all day. We don't like Muse, Coldplay, or Adele. We make in-jokes about Twixes, we spend a whole year obsessing over what the weather will be like, we hate flags. But if you can't handle us at our worst, you sure as hell don't deserve us at our best.

I'm standing firm on the fact I live in Ireland and glean my info in the foreign countries from here.

Muse are playing 10-18,000 capacity Arenas, Coldplay are playing 60-90,000 capacity Stadiums.

Also the Muse dates are about 2 months closer.

Ok question has been answered. Ta muchly. Couldn't get me head around it. I get it now.

Which won't happen sadly since England's fixtures don't play around glasto (last 16 is on a glasto day but only on a weekend when bands are playing)

Do you think the game (assuming we get through) would be shown anywhere ?

[dentalplan]

Haven't Coldplay sold out three of their four Wembley shows, in addition to Hampden and Etihad x2? Seems a bit unfair to say they're struggling to sell out shows.

Coldplay are live to about 800m people on Sunday night - they'll shift their tickets.

I call it the NYNEX to be even more old skool.

[jonday81]

If Muse and Coldplay both have tickets to sell is it likely that the third headliner will be announced first, especially if Radiohead as no UK tour announced or Adele as hers has sold out?

[Amy Lawn]

In our hearts it will forever be the MEN. One day youths will stare blankly at us, like I do now when middle aged people make reference to "Kendal's on Deansgate".

Sorry to butt in. I've been reading everyone's comments about headliners and no one has mentioned stone roses and I was thinking they were a sure thing . Do you guys think they're a non starter?

Isn't it Kendall's. *Googles*

Oh, House Of Frasier now. Don't they still have some Kendal's frontage still up?

Id assume a bar over there would have it showing since there's alot of them.

In group B, so either

20:00 on Saturday if best third place - They will not show this/why would you want to watch during Sub/Headline

17:00 on Saturday if winner - Maybe shown as similar timing to Eng vs Germany 2010?

20:00 on Monday if Runner Up - Watch England get knocked out on Glastonbury comedown. FUN.

Gutted . I (and mates) thought they were holding out on the announcement due to contractual stuff with other festivals. I still live in hope until they release the poster! : ) 

[Timmus26mus]

Radiohead, Muse and Coldplay it is then.
