Just a comment in general on this (rather than just about Muse in particular) .....

Isn't it normally the case that when a band does get this popular, it's because they've turned into a crap version of their former selves, and via that attracted a mainstream following?

There's two potentially wildly different things that could be going on there though. In some cases the band have gone mainstream to attract a bigger audience. But I think in the case of Muse (I also think this is the case with U2) it's simply that the music they have found themselves working on has been more mass-audience friendly. Although I find that weird because personally I think The Resistance is a lot LESS commercial sounding than Absolution.

It's the fact that you seem to take delight in coming on to my threads about other bands just to wind me up which amuses me the most. I have come to terms with the fact that you are now my second concions, the dark side of the Hole if you like. The beast waiting to get out of my body but not quite making it.

. People say that KOL have turned mainstream in their sound which is bollocks and it's just the fact that sex is on fire was as large as it was and that everybody from mums to chavs liked the song. Suddenly indie doesn't make people feel indepenent, what indie is supposedly stands for and it's liked by everybody.

Does anyone think it might be that Muse could play but not headline? ME has said he wants to get many past headliners back..

yep - that's the exact reason why the eFestivals story last week that Muse will be playing doesn't say they'll be headlining.

I know for sure they're playing (providing my info is good, which it very definitely should be).

I don't know for sure that they're headlining.

I'd be very happy if they play 2nd down. I don't like muse much so would be a bit of waste of a headliner for me, but if Glasto manages to get bands as big as Muse for 2nd down then it's the start of a very special line up.

I knows. That's never never going to happen.

License won't let them use the main stages on any other days apart from Fri, sat and sun. They can't have Muse being one of the only few bands to play somewhere like the Queens Head on Thursday. People would die.

I would bet my whole existence on that not happening

    • Saw Myles Smith at Circuit last night - with my kids and my nephews and niece who’d never been to a gig before. Nice one for them to start with. Now with some big hits under his belt and an album launching I think he’ll be around for a while. Comes across as a genuinely lovely guy who’s happy to be there. 
    • It certainly seems to becoming “a thing”, if you look back over the last few years lineup 
    • If you had to come through the fence after coming down the hill if you weren’t already down the hill then you were probably in general. From there the blocks of toilets, showers and water points aren't far at all and to your right is aldi. I know of the lake but apparently it fills up super quick and is noisy and loads of bugs....I got bitten as it was lol. But I joined a solo camp WhatsApp group so followed them.
