Muse, Bowie, Radio Head And The Who Tipped For Glastonbury Headliners
Westcountry stars Muse have been named the first choice to headline next year’s Glastonbury Festival. In a Gigwise Poll, Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme and Dominic Howard topped the vote with ease, beating the iconic David Bowie into second place.
My Guitar Lessons found out that The Arctic Monkeys placed close behind Bowie – third choice, with The Who in fourth. Radiohead place closely behind in fifth place. After a summer of live shows including Wireless Festival and Radio One’s Hackney Weekender, it seems festival goers are struggling with Rihanna fatigue, as the “We Found Love” singer proves the least popular artist to headline Glastonbury. Rihanna tied with The Spice Girls for the least popular.
Kanye West and Duran Duran tied as the second least popular and Eminem placed third least popular. Muse will have a huge amount of new material to perform at Glastonbury should they be booked for the returning show, with new album The 2nd Law due for release on XX.
