Kasabian stop rain as they close IOW Festival 2011

Band more than up for headline slot on Sunday night

Neil Stone - 12 June 2011

The festival favourites and widely acknowledged Leicester lads, knocked out a whole host of their ear-shredding greats and new anthems like 'LSF', 'Empire', 'Velociraptor!'  and 'Shoot The Runner', and at no point, letting the fans off their ride.

Tom Meighan was more then up for it and referred to the crowd as "Isle of Wight bitches" as guiratist Serge Pizzorno and Co. dazzled in their respective supporting roles.

Each song was a grenade of energy to the soggy masses.

An excited Martin Campbell, 30, thought the band were very talented and thought  the gig had a good mix of new songs with the old classics. He stated: "I was here in 2011 for Kasabian!"

Kasabian played:
Clubfoot
