Why does the sun always shine on the IOW festival?
People think that I have done a deal with the devil for it not to rain in eight years. Michael Eavis phones me every year and says you bas**ard! Have you enjoyed the Isle of Wight (IOW) Festival? I always enjoy myself. I think it’s fantastic to see the bands that you love. The Stereophonics were phenomenal last night. Kelly Jones can just project so well. He can control an audience. He can perform to an audience. The thing about the bands we book is its not about how many records they have sold this year, or what position they are in the chart, it’s about whether your capable of projecting and entertaining an audience. Do you like to get out and about during the festival? Yes I love it! To get the feeling for it. Punters come up to you and tell you about their good and bad experiences. What sort of feedback have you had this year? People have loved it more than ever because there has been more to see. It’s been more entertaining. Thursday night went well didn’t it!? That was brilliant
