Would have to be other headliner 

That's what I'm thinking, even other opener would be too busy I think 

[Inconspicuous]

Muse would surely be a health and safety nightmare if they were billed (as opposed to a secret slot) anywhere other than Pyramid

It would be pure carnage

Pyramid sub, there virtually isn't an Other space left.

I'm just floating the idea because it's what someone said to me.

Do you reckon that Muse could be considered for legends slot, I know it sounds strange, but they have been since the mid 90's and have various hits and number 1 albums... I don't think it would be conceivable but it would fit in with the real coup, not rumoured for the slot thing

oooo

Bring Me The Horizon to "headline" other stage on Saturday except theres a TBC slot after them for Muse to play as secret Other Stage headliners on Saturday opposite Adele.

So here's a thought.

If Muse weren't a headliner but were somewhere else on the bill, where would they play?

Thursday headliner? :|

This was the first thought that came into my head. Something on the Thursday

Can't understand where else they would play. They're still a massive band despite the unrivalled hate on here

[brettredmayne]

Emily did say the Sunday afternoon spot had surprised them and no one had guessed. Can't remember the exact quote but bet someone has it to hand?

I get where you're coming from, but as a general rule the appeal of any act is only in context with the appeal of the other acts playing at the same time.

If (say) the rolling stones were on at the same time as Muse, Muse would be relatively quiet.

So while I guess it would be fair to say there's increased risks with other stages, it doesn't make it impossible in all circumstances.

I really don't want them to be there or care about them, but Muse are a Pyramid headliner and nothing else. The thought of them playing elsewhere on the bill seems ludicrous to me, unless the three headliners were booked and they were desperate to play (which even then doesn't sound right and isn't really how it works)

Do we not think radio head are abit more legendary to make that slot though? I'm guessing muse will play BHAR in full if so

[Matt42]

If Metallica were considered for other headline one year than surely Muse could do it

This is madness

Are the other headline acts rumoured big enough to stop it been a health and safety nightmare. Muse would draw a massive crowd , think it would have to be before a headliner.

[Mardy]

I'm striggling with this. Can't see them anywhere else except......

 

....subbing for Prince 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Muse for the Legends Slot, Radiohead for Other Stage Indie Landfill Surprise and Adele for the Friday hip hop slot.

[blue6field]

Could you have BMTH subbing muse on the other, been plenty of discussion on their merits as an other headliner. Would still be a great position for them

Potentially possible, but not Saturday, that's New Order

Considered, possibly, but seeing as it never came to fruition it's hard to really make comparisons

im gonna go ahead and think this is duff info for now cause I just can't see how it would fit in other than being a high profile secret slot like the Park sets of old

[Inconspicuous]

Unless they are just making the Sunday afternoon slot the 'fourth headliner' now because the legend tag does tie them down somewhat.

I wouldn't class Muse as 'legends' in the sense that we have seen in that slot so far.
