On the Road

Episode two of the series that gives an insider's view of the music business. For a behind-the-scenes insight into the scale and logistics of a modern mega tour, John goes backstage at U2's latest tour, where he reminisces with Adam Clayton about how the live scene has transformed in the decades they've worked together.

John takes viewers backstage at Isle of Wight 2017, the festival he runs, and where Rod Stewart, Run DMC and Kaiser Chiefs are among the big names.

The programme also tells the story of the original Isle of Wight festival, where a bunch of young promoters with big ideas persuaded Bob Dylan, The Who and Leonard Cohen to perform. A tale of unpaid artists, frantic last-minute negotiations and general mayhem, it was an event that transformed the music industry, and, for the young John who was in the audience, it was the beginning of a whole career.
