Muse's shows at Wembley Stadium in 2007 have been voted the best ever event to have occurred at the iconic London venue. Over 55,000 fans voted in a survey created by the Football Association (FA), ultimately deciding that Muse’s two stadium shows outshone events such as the 1966 World Cup final and Michael Jackson’s ‘Bad’ tour in 1988.
Muse's two gigs, which were a central part of their ‘H.A.A.R.P’ tour in 2007, placed just above Michael Jackson’s ‘Bad’ tour, which was voted in at second place.
Speaking about the result, Melvin Benn, who is currently Chairman of Wembley Stadium, said: “Whilst all Wembley’s events have been special, Muse are very deserving winners for their 2007 Wembley concerts which were nothing short of spectacular.”
Muse went on to perform at Wembley Stadium once again in 2010. The Devon band are currently working on the follow-up to their hit 2009 album ‘The Resistance’.
Top-five events at Wembley Stadium:
1 - 2007 Muse (H.A.A.R.P Tour)
2 - 1988 Michael Jackson (Bad Tour)
3 - 1986 Queen Live at Wembley)
4 - 2009 Take That (Circus Tour)
5 - 1966 World Cup – England v Germany
