    Muse To Play Park Stage At Glastonbury Festival?

    There is growing speculation that Muse will make a special guest appearance at the Glastonbury Festival this weekend.

    The band, who release new album 'The Resistance' in September, could appear as 'special guests' on The Park Stage on Friday or Saturday.

    A cryptic message posted on a Twitter page credited to organiser Michael Eavis appeared to suggest Muse would be appearing.

    The message said: “We have had some resistance from the black holes forming around the Park Stage, hopefully we should have that sorted before you all arrive!”

    A Glastonbury festival spokesperson was unavailable for comment on the matter when contacted by Gigwise.

    Another spokesperson said they had no knowledge about the Twitter account.

    Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis announced in May that a special guest band act appear on The Park Stage over the festival weekend.

    But she refused the name them because of health and safety concerns.

    She told the BBC: “I don't think it will ever be announced. It will just happen for those people that happen to be there, hopefully for the people that are fans of the band.”

    At present, there are two vacant 'special guests' slots scheduled for The Park Stage on Friday and Saturday.

    The festival, which gets under way on Friday, will be headline by Bruce Springsteen, Blur and Neil Young.

    • The lines up doesn't sound all that great. NO offense to Springsteen, I would much rather see Muse any day
