David Bowie to headline the Isle Of Wight Festival

It has been announced that David Bowie has confirmed he will be appearing as the headline act for the 2004 Isle of Wight Music Festival on Sunday 13 June.

The concert will be part of a weekend rock event (provisionally booked for 11-13 June 2004) and is part of the wider two-week Isle of Wight Festival which takes place across the Island from 4th to 19th June.

David Bowie had this to say about the Isle of Wight Festival: “I was so envious of other acts that got to do the other Isle of Wight Festivals – it is really coming back.
This is the very first time I have been to the Isle of Wight Festival. Obviously I’ve been to the Isle of Wight, it’s a fabulous place – I used to go there on holiday when I was a kid. I jumped at it, it is a smashing thing to do.”
