THE FINAL day of the Isle of Wight festival has begun.

The weekend has already seen performances from huge acts including Sterophonics, Faithless and the Who.

On the final day Queen with Adam Lambert will take to the main stage to bring the event to a close.

The main stage will also see Ocean Colour Scheme, the Cribs and Twin Atlantic play.

On the Big Top, Southampton band the Novatones are the opening act and the stage will also see performances from the Wonder Stuff and Feeder.

Yesterday saw the Who close out the main stage with a nostalgia filled performance of some of their greatest hits including Pinball Wizzard and My Generation.

In the Big Top, the Pendulum DJ set gave a blistering performance breaking out hits including Slam to open the set as well as Tarantula

The Singer of Alabama 3, Rob Spragg, aka Larry Love, said: "It's beautiful to be here. It went well considering we are gentlemen of the night and like vampires in the midday sun. It's a challenge because you are dragging people out of their respective hangovers. But we had worse than anyone in the festival!"

Harmonica player Nick Reynolds, aka Harpo Strangelove, said visiting the island reminded him of his childhood visiting dad the late Bruce Reynolds who served a term in Parkhurst Prison for his part in orchestrating the Great Train Robbery.

He added:  "I love this festival. It is a great line-up and is is like how Glastonbury was before it got too commercial."

Lead singer of The Damned, David Vanian has fond memories of the island from his childhood.

He and a friend were staying in a caravan close to the landmark 1970 festival where Jimi Hendrix and The Who played.

David said: "I was just a kid and heard Hendrix and Jim Morrison playing. It's such an iconic festival. It's our version of Woodstock and has got that feel about it. Everyone wants to come here and have a good time."
