Devon's most omnipresent pomp-rockers Muse confirmed their headline slot at September's Bestival at the World Snooker Championships.
In the backstage interview, among snookery tales, lead singer Matt Bellamy lets the top slot news slip: "...getting ready for a big tour, just getting warmed up now, doing all the interviews and stuff to promote the album and everything... we're doing Download Festival, which is like the metal festival, and Bestival in Isle of Wight later in the year, and next year we'll do our own tour, obviously."
Muse join the likes of The Chemical Brothers, Underworld, Future Islands, Charli XCX, FKA Twigs, Tame Impala and more.
The band's seventh record, Drones, is out 5 June on Warner.
Bestival 2015 will take place at Robin Hill Country Park between 10-13 September. Tickets are on sale now, and you can get them here.
