The Streets?!?
Really?
fucking dreadful
apart from biffy :@
Crap!
I don't want may saturday ticket any more. I hate The Streets and have no idea who the hell Rodrigo... is! Very disappointing.
Don't you want to go
just to find out? That's the joy of support bands you know nothing about (I got into Radiohead, The Verve and Elastica, amongst others, from seeing them when they were still relatively unknown support bands...).
Muse'll still be ace, whoever's supporting them.
What happened to the Klaxons, though?
nay
Rodrigo Y Gabriela are great.
i reckon they
will be next announced, its not like they have a bigger catalogue than any announced so far.
Well
Rodrigo y Gabriela are one of the best things I've ever seen live, as only crazy fast spanish guitar-work can be. But to stick them with the Streets is like being offered sex with that cheerleader from Heroes only for her to do a massive shit on your chest before you climax.
Oh well. Seeing them at Latitude anyway. Rodrigo y Gabriela, not the lass from Heroes shitting on someone.
* Update *
I've just listened to a bit of Rodrigo Y Gabriela and they're pretty damn good actually so ignore my comment about them… but still… The Street?! I didn't see that coming. Oh and I'll definately still be there as Muse will still be outstanding.
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE?!?!?!
ARGGGHHHH
I think the reason why MCR
are supporting is because Muse are supporting them in the states.
i agree
ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Zane Lowe is to DJ between bands on both days."
you lucky, lucky people.
yes
amazing live act.
Thing with Muse
Is that they always seem to choose bands that they personally like, rather than those that would be appropriate for the event.
But....
...Them?
Klaxons aren't playing
they're playing the O2 Wireless that weekend.
and that's how we ended up with
the fucking Noisettes on the last tour.
They're not great at picking support bands.
Even though The Streets and R y G are great, I can't see them going down too well with a Muse crowd. And R y G, I think would be massively wasted in a stadium.
I have to admit, I wanted MCR on the Saturday. I'm dissapointed by them being on Sunday.
damn shit fuck
was looking forward to them ever since I read about that story way back when.
So who wants to swap their sunday tickets for saturday? Any takers?
fucking streets, ffs
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is the only reason why Im going!!!!
When I found out that MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is going to be there I was in compleat ECSTASY!!!! I have love them from the very start!!!!
The only reason they are a support act is they are good friends with The MCR. Dont get me wrong The Muse is a great band,(saw them play when I saw MCR in the Phoenix, Arizona). But MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is the SUPREME group (they knew they had to bring them in to get the people in to see the show.

(When I say the start I mean the very first cd. I am close to the same age as them.)
Saturday garbage.......
Got tickets for Saturday.......what's with The Streets??? hate them with a passion!
I shall be trying to swap my tickets for Sunday. Gutted that MCR are Sunday and we get Skinner!!!
If I can't swap I shall be going into Wembley as near to Muse appearing as I can.
Really disappointed..in fact mortified. The only redemption is Zane Lowe!
"I am close to the same age as them."
Is that more or less depressing?
bloody hell
bit of a let down on both days, nevermind.
i'm definitely swapping my sunday ticket for saturday...
although that is mostly due to my friends going that day and i don't want to be lonesome...
You guys
The Muse sure is a great band.
theres a reason for that
morgan nicholls (he who was once the bassist in the senseless things), was / is the bassist in the streets and is now permanant keyboard player in the muse live line up
Really?
Dear God, I hope that you are alone in that fantasy. Please seek some professional help if you truly believe this, or else sell your tickets. Ta.
R Y G are awesome live.
...I paid to see Muse anyway. Job done. Stop moaning.
At the risk of sounding like a duffer...
what does potd stand for?
and why the fcuk not?
why should they second guess what their wide variety of fans like? better to just go with bands you are happy to endorse in interviews. It is, however, rather ridiculous to make such an obvious split across the two days. Clearly, Biffy and the Streets on Sat and Rodrigo and MCR on the Sun would've kept people happier rather than having a situation where 95% of people want to go on Sunday!

I doubt many people use the first one. Uh, on this board they would mean the last one. Hyper MYC fans/trolls must be in some way reassuring. The Muse are the rocks!
Oh, I'm not saying it's a bad thing at all
I quite admire them for it, rather than going for whatever band the record company wants to promote.
Just one more time cos it was that good.
