Muse in Manchester

Muse are an English rock band formed in Teignmouth, Devon, in 1994 by Matt Bellamy, Chris Wolstenholme and Dominic Howard. Their music combines alternative and progressive rock with electronic and orchestral elements. Albums including Origin of Symmetry, Absolution and Black Holes and Revelations produced songs such as “Plug In Baby,” “Time Is Running Out,” “Starlight” and “Knights of Cydonia.” The band’s two 2007 concerts at Wembley Stadium were documented on HAARP. Muse later headlined Glastonbury in 2010, and their 2013 performance at Rome’s Stadio Olimpico became the concert film Live at Rome Olympic Stadium. The Drones World Tour used a circular central stage and autonomous drones above the performance area, taking the production into arenas during 2015 and 2016. The band has returned to New York for concerts at Madison Square Garden and to Milan for stadium dates at San Siro. Amsterdam has also hosted Muse at Ziggo Dome.
