reckon fellow stadium rockers The Rolling
Stones are taking the mick with steep ticket prices for their 50th
anniversary shows.
Download Speaking at the Q Awards, bassist Christopher
Wolstenholme, 33, told me: "We've always tried to keep prices as low as
we can so people can come and watch us.
"What's reasonable for one person isn't reasonable to another, but there really is only so much money a band needs."
In fact, Muse are more than willing to show their fans a good time at their own expense.Dailystar
Christopher, 33, revealed: "It's important to make some money but we don't always break even because the most important thing is to go out and play live.
"We could earn more if we wanted to by cutting production costs, but it's not about that."
The Devon trio certainly haven't skimped on their latest tour, which hits the UK later this week.
Muse have pulled out all the stops with a floating triangular lighting rig that engulfs their impressive stage.
Sci-fi lover and drummer Dom Howard, 34, joked: "Now is the fun part touring.
"Last tour we got taken away by alien spacecraft on stage.
"This year we get eaten by aliens, quite literally."
Appropriately, the band picked up Best Act In The World at the Q awards.
Matt Bellamy said: "It's a massive honour to get an award from Q."
Muse kick off in Glasgow tomorrow.
