Fri 8 Jun – Isle of Wight Festival 2007
One of the worst festivals I've attended. Dreadful line-up, and I felt corralled from terrible-beer tent to stage with nothing else on offer. Sniffer dogs and body searches under an arch that said "Strawberry Fields"; over-zealous security shutting down public footpaths so fuckwit, no-talent rockstars can have privacy. Meh. I couldn't give a shit about the Stones - too much like watching a geriatric, Tory cover band. All the money wasted on them meant the change left was spent on the likes of Ash. On the up side, Muse were quite entertaining and Wolfmother too, but seriously, what was up with the rest of it.
