The BBC reports that the band were approached by the town council when they carried the Olympic torch a few weeks ago.

Teignbridge District Council Leader Jeremy Christophers said that the "invitation had been well received".

Mr Christophers said: "We've got some arrangements to make between now and when it happens."

A council spokesman said it had not yet decided what the trio would do for the day.

Mr Christophers said: "The band's new album is centred around energy depletion on the planet and I'm really hopeful that we can do some work with younger people about this. I'm hugely excited by the prospect."
