So it's time for everyone to moan about the clashes.
The one that's getting to me is the whole...
18.10 - 19.00 Ellie Goulding
18.30 - 19.30 Vampire Weekend
19.20 - 20.10 Florence & The Machine
19.30 - 20.30 Mumford & Sons
19.10 - 20.00 The Big Pink
20.00 - 21.00 Dizzee Rascal
...Clash.
Now 3 or 4 of those are my fave bands/artists. It's really gutting. I will have to work out a system to see a snippet of each.

This is the one that is getting to me also.
Going to go for Vampire Weekend and if not impressed just wander off elsewhere, however I think Mumford with be packed!

Thing is, they are all pretty great. Dizzee & Big Pink aren't such a problem.

I really think Florence will be on slightly later, at about 8, like GaGa last year...

If those are 3 or 4 of your favourite artists you need to improve your tastes
Seriously, clashes are always going to happen - I tend to go with whoever I've seen the least or whoever is near to where I want to be after as I'm lazy! - Out of that it'd be Florence for me, but I won't be seeing any of them to be honest.

Clashes are part of Glasto and you have to accept and embrace that this will be the case when you buy a ticket.
Don't rush round trying to see a snippet of all of them though: in my experience you'll end up seeing very little.

I know it's all part of it. I've just been looking at the other days and they, for me, seem pretty clash free.

Clashes I can handle when there are acts I like spread evenly throughout the weekend. This year's lineup for me has been a right pisser though.
Last night I listed the 10 acts I want to see most. Only 1 (Candi Staton) is on Saturday. Of the other 9, there are 3 clashes, 2 of which are a 3 way clash.
Only when I am watching Ray Davies and Candi will I be able to enjoy without fearing I've made a wrong decision!!

That's a complete bummer. I'm sure you'll stumble upon something else you like. Lets hope the special guests are worth watching

If I were you I wouldn't try to see snippets of all of them, that will just be ultimately unsatisfactory. Just pick a couple and accept it else you will spend more time between stages and fighting through crowds than watching music.
