Muse Wow Crowds At V Festival
Share

Muse triumphed on a fantastic opening day at the V Festival in Chelmsford.

The band played a hit-laden set commencing with the strident ‘Map Of The Problematique’ before climaxing an hour and half later with a thunderous rendition of ‘Knights Of Cydonia’.

Frontman Matt Bellamy was in typically charismatic form – showcasing why he is one of Britain’s best living musicians and performers.

Highlights of the show including the mass sing-alongs of ‘Feeling Good’, ‘Time Is Running Out’ and ‘Supermassive Blackhole’.

After two encores the band ended their show with a waterfall of fireworks and flames engrossing the stage – much to the amazement of the crowd in attendance.

The Verve are set to headline the Chelmsford site tonight while Muse will take to the stage in Staffordshire.

  • Muse lived up to the title of Best Live Act by performing an absolutely amazing set. Everything about it was perfect, the lights were a piece of majesty by themselves, then the brilliant vocals and music made this performance truly out of this world
