Sky Arts - Hard Rock Calling 2009

It's time to rock out in the park again. Hard Rock Calling 2009, for the first time ever taking place over 3 days, took legendary Hyde Park by storm. Located in the heart of London, Hyde Park was electric for headliners The Killers, Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. The 3-day festival also featured The kooks, The Pretenders, Ben Harper, The Gaslight Anthem, james Morrison and Dave Matthews Band.

One of the most unforgettable moments of the weekend was Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band's launching their set with a remarkable rendition of the legendary 1979 Clash track, London Calling, to a crowd of 50,000 screaming fans.

Other highlights include Neil Young performing an intense free spirited version of this 1969 classic track Down by The River and Bruce Springsteen bringing back the rarely performed Rosalita to his live set.

Please show the full Bruce Springsteen set as a seperate programme. I was there and having seen The Boss 4 times it was by far the best (mind you the other 3 were also awesome!).

Why no Fleet Foxes in the coverage? I also wish you’d shown Neil Young doing Rocking in the Free World rather than the neverending Down By The River.
