The festival was held on the island during the wettest summer in the UK for over a century, so it was only fitting that the event featured some of the best bands in the world. While many artists were rained out due to heavy rain, some performers still managed to wow the crowd. Pearl Jam, for example, covered the Beatles’ ‘Rain’ five times during their set. They also played a cover of Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros’ ‘Arms Aloft’ in homage to the late rocker.
Rock’n’roll invasion
The Isle of Wight Festival has long been considered the UK’s Woodstock. Launched in 1968, the festival was a Nirvana of the flower power generation. Performers like Jimi Hendrix and Jefferson Airplane brought an explosion of rock ‘n’ roll hedonism to the island of the Solent. The legendary music festival continues to bring the hottest acts to the UK each year.
