Stars get behind UK music museum

The Rolling Stones, David Bowie and Amy Winehouse are among the stars who have loaned memorabilia to a new exhibition charting the history of British pop.

The British Music Experience will open at the O2 in London in March, and is intended to be a major new attraction.

It will mix costumes and instruments used by top artists, with cutting edge displays designed to bring the last 60 years of British music to life.

Other acts behind the idea include The Who, Oasis, Blur and Paul Weller.

The Who singer Roger Daltrey has loaned the tassled outfit he wore on stage at Woodstock, while Sir Mick Jagger has given an Ossie Clark-designed 1970s jumpsuit.

David Bowie has handed over his Ashes To Ashes clown suit and a classic Ziggy Stardust costume.

A vintage dress worn by Amy Winehouse in her Tears Dry On Her Own video and a live DVD will also be seen.

Noel Gallagher's iconic Union Jack guitar will be on show, along with guitars played by Paul Weller, Marc Bolan and Blur.

As well as the memorabilia, curators are promising a fully interactive experience.

The memorabilia will be accompanied by footage of the objects in action, while fans will be able to explore the history of pop and rock in a series of hi-tech zones.

Visitors will be able to scroll through a giant timeline, search a map containing 4,000 British rock and pop landmarks, and learn about record players and radiograms in a lesson about recording formats.

Artists ranging from Cream bassist Jack Bruce to rapper Dizzee Rascal have been filmed in conversation with other musicians, to be screened as "fantasy dinner parties".

Virtual dance instructors will teach moves from the twist to the macarena, while acts such as KT Tunstall and The Magic Numbers have recorded expert instrument tuition videos.

The visit will finish with a five minute finale designed to replicate a full-blown concert experience, with acts like The Beatles, Oasis and the Sex Pistols projected around three sides of a room.
