Regarding muse.....


Guest sprocketrocket

Hello, I'm well aware there a numerous threads about muse headling on Saturday etc.... and I don't want to piss on anyones biscuits or anything...

but at what point has anyone said they will be Headlining? M Eavis mentioned they are playing, the info from eFests a while back was that they'd be playing but not in a slot you'd expect, and there is still no update on the official site, which according to the news (BBC 6 Music) was going to be updated by the end of the day yesterday... (02-02).

Just a thought.

Although the Glastonbury festival press office would not confirm these rumours, they admitted that they were in talks with both acts."We would love Stevie Wonder to play but nothing has been confirmed yet," they told the Guardian. "There has also been a lot of speculation about whether Muse will be headlining, but we can't confirm anything at the moment. We are still in talks."

So if I gently apply a dose of healthy, wild speculation, this means that Muse AREN'T Pyramis headliners on Sat, but may be Other Stage.

Soooooooooooooo.

Who pips Muse to the prime spot then? Radiohead (please oh God please oh God please oh God)?

Everyones entitled to an opinion but lets just deal with facts here..... There are a select few bands who can shift shitloads of tickets for big gigs...Muse shift tickets faster and in greater quantity than almost any other band currently touring.Love them or loathe them, they are the number one 'modern?' super band and as such fully deserve to be headliners. And I for one can't wait :P

what a shout this is!! not for radiohead to headline instead [no offence] - but imagine if we've all been duped into thinking they are 100% for the pyramid ... i mean they probably are, but it'd be f**king incredible if this got flipped around on us and we got the mighty Zep or something.

Also, didn't Emily say we should believe all the rumours we've been hearing lately about them headlining on saturday ... at the same time big M said they are headlining. [not mentioned the pyramid i don't think]?

ooof my hearts beatin like a rabbit

These must be really strong rumours, but at the end of the day that's all they are - rumours. They might be correct and all that, but until we get official confirmation then we (should) take them with a pinch of salt.

And anyway...maybe they have got someone MASSIVE booked as well(even more massive than Stevie) and this rumour is being used to keep us all happy so we don't find out. Gotta love optimism :P

If Muse don't headline, they'll be on the Pyramid before U2. I've a mate who is good friends with Muse's sound engineer (who was none too pleased at ME jumping the gun and revealing that Muse were playing while they still have tickets available for their stadium shows!), and as usual he's remaining tight lipped about their plans. But he did say that the short switchovers at festivals meant that U2 want somebody they are familiar touring with on before them so there's minimal set up involved (with no real soundcheck as such, they could feabily just use Muse's set up). Muse fit that bill, but then so do Snow Patrol (who incidently also have Muse's sound engineer from time to time), and a whole heap of other bands. They'll probably headline but I would expect them on the Pyramid in any case.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
