Isle of Wight Festival 2005 - Highlights

Highlights

  • Razorlight bassist Carl Dalemo comically failed to leave the stage after the rest of the band had played and continued to play music.
  • The unprecedented standing ovation received by Goldie Lookin' Chain after their excellent Saturday afternoon slot(NOTE: no chairs in this event, therefore the so-called "standing ovation" went on for the whole show).
  • Travis singer Francis Healy 'forgetting' his lyrics and being prompted by the audience, who were familiar with catchy choruses.
  • The embarrassing emptiness of the main stage during the set of Kate Aumonier, despite her commendable attempts to win over a small audience.
  • Michael Stipe's theatrical stage antics which whipped the crowd into a frenzy throughout much of the R.E.M. set.
