Muse Planning 'Huge' Collaboration for V Festival

MuseRockers Muse are planning a secret collaboration to make their Virgin Mobile V Festival slot blow Glastonbury away, according to the band's drummer, Dom Howard.


The V Festival sold out in minutes, while tickets for Glastonbury -- where rapper Jay-Z is one of the headline acts -- are still available.


Dom says, "We are looking into a big collaboration for V but we need to see if it�ll work out first.


"It�s good to get back out on the road. It keeps us fresh as we don�t like to sit around.


"We�re doing some shows in Europe and South America but you really have to step it up at a festival.


"Even though we have a good live reputation we put a lot of thought and planning into our shows."


Dom also revealed that the band -- whose last album, Black Holes & Revelations, gained a Mercury Prize nomination -- are well on their way to finishing their next album.


He adds, "We�ve written three or four new songs and they�re sounding sweet."
