The Who due to appear at Isle of Wight this year, uncertain if surviving members even remember being there in the first place.

I love The Who?s Live at Leeds and I really loved it when they expanded the sucker and dropped it on the populace with a full set-list and an even louder mix. What I really enjoy in secret though is The Who Live at The isle of Wight since I think it probably captures a more honest version of the group?s live incarnation in the early ?70s. It looks like they?re all set to recapture the magic, along with David Bowie and among others ugh, the Stereophonics.

The Who, David Bowie and Stereophonics are confirmed to headline the 2004 edition of the U.K.’s Isle of Wight Festival. Stereophonics will play June 11, followed by the Who on June 12 and Bowie on June 13. Ticket information can be found on the event’s official Web site.

The Who are no strangers to the Isle, having played a 1970 concert there that was immortalized on the CD/home video “Live at the Isle of Wight.”
