Cool - the guys at Activision obviously love Muse...they've made plenty of appearances in the GH games.

Going to see them in Teignmouth in a few days - they'll be debutting the new album. Funnily, he's wearing the red suit in the game that he wore at the Wembley gigs - when I last saw them.

Wow! Awesome news- first I hear channel 4 are axing Big Brother and now my favourite band is appearing in this complete with my favourite song!

All I need to now is buy the bloody game... Confused

Parma- any chance of smuggling me in? I'm prepared to lop off my limbs if it's any easier. My moshing powers however will be reduced significantly...

To be honest, I have no idea how they're going to get 5,000 into the Den - it's tiny - so I doubt there'll be any moshing whatsoever.

My girlfriend actually managed to get 4 tickets and got rid of two after a couple of mates let us down....I think there's still some available, believe it or not.

Oh - and completely agree about the news about Big Brother....what are people going to do when they want to see dull people doing dull things now? - oh yeah, they'll just have to look out of the window.

I think Billy Connelly summed up Big Brother the best when he said: "It's a bunch of dull people sitting in a living room being watched by 3 million dull people sitting in their living rooms".

I grew up watching Muse at the Cavern in Exeter. I used to hate them, but when they released their first few EPs, they really caught my attention...they steadily impressed me ever since.

Good on Bellamy to get a pixelated version of himself.

Yeah, they've grown on me over time too...I must admit, the first time that I heard them, I thought 'who is this trying to rip off Jeff Buckley?'

I don't think I've ever been to the Cavern - what's the name of that guitar shop in Exeter that has one of Matt Bellamys guitars hanging up on the wall?

Manson guitars? They designed/built at least one of Matt's custom guitars.

Can't wait for the new album Very Happy

I only have the first album (I saw him play a ridiculous solo on a live version of Sunburn around the time it came out). He hasn't quite got Buckley's tone and I never buy their albums but I have a softspot for them and prog in general - I could never work out why radiohead seemed to almost hide their prog influences for so long, they're hardly ELP. More like Berlin era Bowie, Eno or Can!

And Buckley would've done prog at some point (he already covered Back in NYC), the man was a f**king guitar wizard but put it into chords and the like as opposed to finger bleeding solos!

Yeah, Jeff Buckley was a great guitarist....really very underrated.

I agree about the Prog Rock too, he was a big fan of the big Prog bands like Genesis and Yes, I believe.

It's a real shame with him - out of all the musicians that died young, he's up there with Buddy Holly - you just know he would have gone on to be so much bigger and more important than they are.

Nice, I love Muse, even if I try to hide it!
