Very happy with Phonics.

Very disappointed with Razorlight.

Which is actually headlining?

[SERRIDGER]

Yep confirmed, just read the email

STEREOPHONICS AND RAZORLIGHT CONFIRMED TO HEADLINE SATURDAY NIGHT AT THIS YEARS ISLE OF WIGHT FESTIVAL

Stereophonics and Razorlight are two more big names added to the already explosive Isle of Wight Festival line up, as they prepare to rock the main stage on Saturday 13th June. The legendary festival returns for another year with what is promised to be the highlight of the festival season

As a double header thats not bad!!!!.....nead a BIG BIG name for Sunday night!!!!!!! as both The Prodigy and Stereophonics would be unlikely to headline the main stage at any of the other festivals, neither did at V last year.

what a pile of poo all the names that was floating around we get them verry unhappy

[Andrew_iow]

Great, always wanted to see the phonics

Seen Razorlight in 2005 not that fussed about seeing them again.

[Jonesio]

Such a mediocre pair of bands with the 2 most self important frontmen in the world!! Giddens has once again selected bands that have already played, wheres the variety? really gutted with this news.

[StrettonHills]

I have a ticket for sale

[Wellydancer]

Good luck with that sale Jeffrey-Spinks!

[Topshop Lass]

I am happy with Stereophonics think they will be really good a mate of mine saw them a few months a go and said they were really good and i think in the summer they will be a really good band to fit the mood.

Razorlight though not to fussed about most of their stuff sounds the same so not over the moon with them but ah well

This is bad beyond belief. So far we've got Prodigy, Razorlight & Stereophonics. Couldn't he get an act that hasn't played there before?

I forgot, The Charlatans on Sunday in the Big Top.

[Kris W]

Well i was well off the mark with my guesses. Im really hoping they get someone cracking for Saturday night Big Top. Fatboy Slim or someone akin to that.

[iowighter]

im pretty disapointed, slightly excited about stereophonics, but i dont get razorlight no other festival would have them headlining. Plus the fact the festival seems to be having the same acts over and over again. Does this mean we should expect coldplay for the sunday?

[autonomy]

Its interesting reading the strand on the T in the Park forum.

They are complaining that their line-up is rubbish and they are all bands that have played before.

Sounds familiar? Would you swap their line-up for IOW?

[Red Day]

Was just going to say that. Maybe there's just so many festivals and such a small choice of bands that the usual suspects end up playing year after year. I've been going to festivals for a fair while now and must admit with the exception of Glasto, I'm getting a bit bored seeing the same Killers/Razorlight/KOL headliners.

I agree the bands don't seem so big but i am a huge Phonics fan and really like Razorlight. I was considering selling my tickets after seeing fridays line up as i'd rather eat my own vomit than see any of the friday acts, but thankfully things are looking up.

Got to say that they need to pull it out of the bag for sunday to maintain the hard earned respect they've got.

[Tomo18]

there will be some crackin bands on in day though

its not all about headliners

or is it.....

[autonomy]

I can't help thinking that money has been held back from Saturday to pay a mega-act on Sunday.

The same happened last year with the Sex Pistols and Ian Brown pretty average in my opinion but saved enough cash to pay for the Police on Sunday.

With pressure from Glastonbury - who have Springsteen and possibly Fleetwood Mac - I think John Giddings is in deep negotiations with Saint Peter to release Elvis and John Lennon for the Sunday night spot.
