Muse have issued a statement about their appearance at V Festival this coming weekend. The statement is given in full below.

===========
As reported on music websites over the weekend, Muse’s bass player Chris Wolstenholme sustained an injury to his hand in a fall at the tail end of last week whilst on tour in the US. This meant that the band had to cut short their participation in Curiosa (the travelling festival helmed by The Cure) – of which they had been headlining the Second Stage.

The touring party returned home on Saturday, and Chris and his management immediately sought medical advice on the injury. They are at present awaiting test results and further medical counsel regarding the injury. The band is also currently investigating other alternatives should Chris not be able to take to the stage this weekend for their headlining slot at the V Festival 2004 Chelmsford and Stafford.

Muse are committed to finding a way to complete their Summer live schedule. The band posted this message to their fans on their website www.muse.mu:

“We will of course keep you informed on this matter as soon as we have any news. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding at this time.”
