Isle Of Wight Festival 2007 - Day 3

I felt better when I woke up on the Sunday. I had a really chilled out day. It was hot again so I just drunk lots of fluids and no alcohol. I actually gave away the remaining beer token I had (It would have been a shame to waste it!)

James Morrison was good. The Fratellis were fantastic. I really love them! I watched Keane right from the back of the field. I like some of their songs but I find them too depressing to listen to for too long.

Then I decided to stand pretty much where I ended up for Muse to watch the Rolling Stones. The only problem was, there were SO many drunk people piling out of the V.I.P area. Some of them were really rude and obnoxious. I ended up having an argument with one of them because I stepped forwards to let him by. Apparently I should have stepped backwards and I was actually trying to block his path. Twat! The Rolling Stones were fantastic though. I’m SO glad I got a chance to see them.

I went straight back to my tent afterwards and I slept amazingly well considering the chaos around me! I was woken up at 6am by a big commotion going on in the next field. There was this girl screaming her head off and some other people shouting. It turns out this girl had done something and the security guys had gone over to her and she had spat at one of them. An argument then broke out and this girl was literally dragged across the field screaming her head off to a car. Her friends were protesting that they couldn’t do that as they were not police. But the security guys were insisting they could. Then someone actually stole the car keys. So the security guys were saying no one was leaving the whole campsite until these keys turned up. There was then a huge outcry as people were packing up and were leaving to get ferries and actually had nothing to do with the incident. In the end, the police turned up, the keys were returned and the girl was driven away and peace was restored. It was quite scary at the time though.

I decided since I was awake I’d pack up and leave then. I ended up having to get 5 trains home because my train was cancelled. That was no fun at all with the amount of luggage I had with me.

The things I do for Muse!
