The countdown to Muse's Wembley stadium shows begin

Muse are set to play two mega gigs at Wembley Stadium this weekend (June 16, 17) and on NME.COM we will be counting down to the band’s biggest ever shows all week.

This week’s issue of NME features an exclusive career-spanning interview that charts how the band went from their Devon roots to the giant stadium shows.

To prepare for the shows we’ll be running a different extract from the interview online – starting this afternoon with the band’s beginning – every day up until the gigs themselves.

However if you can’t wait for your daily Muse dose the full article will be in the issue of NME which hits UK newsstands from June 13.

Not only that, but the magazine comes free with a special CD hand-picked by the band themselves and featuring brand new Muse track - ’Man Of Mystery’.

Meanwhile we will also be covering the Wembley Stadium shows themselves with news, blogs and pictures live from both gigs this weekend.

In the meantime you find out how Muse warmed-up by reading the report of their headlining Isle Of Wight Festival appearance at the weekend (June 9).

So make sure you stay with NME and NME.COM for the ultimate coverage of Muse’s Wembley shows.
