Information

The first headlining slot at the Virgin Festival 2004. Due to Christopher Wolstenholme's wrist injury, Morgan Nicholls, then bassist for The Streets, stood in and played bass guitar. Since Christopher Wolstenholme couldn't play bass, at the beginning of Hysteria, he walked to the front of the stage with a Hullaballoon and threw it into the crowd.
