There were three acts on the bill for the Friday. Bush, The Kaiser Chiefs (I think) and Bon Jovi. On the schedule posted on the festival website, Bon Jovi were down to play from 7.20 to 10.15, so I assume they did about three hours.
There were five acts on the Stones' bill. There's a 10.30 curfew for each event (maybe earlier on the Sunday, I dont know) but there's no way anyone is telling the Stones or any headliner 'you can only play for xxx amount of time'. As long as theyre off for 10.30 the event can and will be tailored around how long the headliners agree to play for.
The headliner for one of the Sunday night shows - the boyband JLS - are down to play a set of
45 minutes. They go on stage after The Beach Boys. God knows what their fanbase of 12 year old girls will make of a bunch of wizened septuagenarians singing stuff like 'Be True to Your School' and 'When I Grow Up To Be A Man'.
