The Clashes

[FloorFiller]

Well with the lineup released comes the awful awful clashes, so, go on, who will you be sacrificing to see somebody else?

 

Beck vs PJ Harvey

LCD Soundsystem vs Grimes vs Earth Wind & Fire

Car Seat Headrest vs Anna Meredith (will choose on the day)

Adele vs M83 vs James Blake

Tame Impala vs Floating Points vs Chvrches vs Art Garfunkel (keep noticing new additions to this one - what a fucker)

Vince Staples vs Unknown Mortal Orchestra

Kamasi Washington vs Hinds

Foals vs Explosions in the Sky

i'm sure there are more but these are the current biggies - not nearly as heartbreaking as previous years

[huh? what?]

Chvrches + Tame Impala

James Blake + New Order

PJ Harvey + Mac DeMarco + Beck + Grimes

 

There's probably more but at the moment I'm close to curling up in a ball and crying with those 3.

Yeah these are the main ones for me.

Think there might be a lot of running about Friday trying to see everyone though! Savages -> Foals -> Underworld should be good.

Chvrches v Tame Impala v Floating Points

just remembered and added that one in. that's a shitter of a clash

[Hugh Jass]

Seeing Peej at Field Day so that leaves Beck free.

Tame Impala v Art Garfunkel (gotta be Art)

[Yokel Again]

beck pj harvey is a killer. 2 of my must sees.

[russycarps]

beck v pj is annoying. 

[Sidasta]

For me, these are of differing levels of clashiness, ranging from "I'm gonna be really happy to see any of these" to "oh god why, whyyyy":

Underworld vs Muse vs Sigur Rós (all of whom I've seen before, particularly SR who I've seen about eight times)

Jess Glynne/Two Door Cinema Club vs Frightened Rabbit vs Half Moon Run

Coldplay/Ellie/Beck/ELO vs LCD Soundsystem (almost heartbreaking) vs Earth Wind & Fire vs Band of Horses vs Simon Shackleton/Dubfire

I'm not going to be the guy who complains that there's too many things I want to see - after last year's void (for me anyway), I'll take being spoilt for choice over anything else - but that Coldplay/LCD Soundsystem clash is just gutwrenching. I know I'll be watching Coldplay, as I'm a fan and they're going to put on an excellent show to close the Pyramid, but I just so wish LCD were playing on a different day.  Saturday would have been perfect.

[Tigerdragon]

tourettes hero has three small sets and each time clashes with someone I really want to see :'(

Sunday evening is pretty brutal too: LCD/EWF/KT Turnstall/Cyndi Lauper.

glad to get to see Art, though!!

My Friday suddenly looks at lot emptier, but an empty clash finder is just an opportunity, right?

[When Jokers Attack]

Kurt Vile/John Grant

Tame Impala/Garfunkel

PJ/beck

[CaledonianGonzo]

Nothing to rival last year's Mavis Staples heartbreaker, thank God.....

[kingcrawler]

Nothing too major for me other than Sunday night

Frightened Rabbit v Two Door Cinema Club
Foals v Explosions the Sky
Jagwar Ma v Lapsley
The 1975 and Chvrches v Tame Impala
PJ Harvey v Gabrielle Aplin
LCD Soundsystem v Coldplay v Grimes v Cyndi Lauper

I reckon the first act listed will win all of those but it's only the last one I'm that annoyed about

Clashfinder seems updated...http:///s/g2016/?user=06ew3e.yd

[Girlwiththemostcake]

Frightened Rabbit are also playing Williams Green at 8pm on the Friday, if that helps.

shit i just realised this one

[SwedgeAntilles]

Tame Impala and Chvrches - plan there is to catch the beginning of Tame Impala as I'll be there for TLSP anyway, then head round for Chvrches kicking off.

New Order and James Blake - probably leaning towards NO as I'll already be there for the above

The entire Friday night with Foals, Savages, EITS all crossing over. Dunno yet.

PJ Harvey and Beck - would have been nice to see Beck but I'll be going for Polly. Hopefully means I'll have a decent spot for LCD afterwards too.

[JoeyMester]

Chvrches and Santigold is the one that's riled me!

Oh and LCD/Grimes/Earth Wind and Fire... other than that it's alright. Hey, at least I'm going!

[mynameismatt]

Superhans vs Tame Impala

[Tigerdragon]

I think the whole lexic of a 'clash' or a 'clashfinder' makes it all seem so glum.

If it was called a choicefinder, it would seem so much more easy-going.

Half-glass-full thinking: I'd much rather have a really strong line-up and then not see half of it.

[stuartbert two hats]

Floating Points vs Art Garfunkel is the biggie for me.  Also LCD vs Earth Wind & FIre.

[sweetsounding]

Sunday night is actually a huge ballache for pretty much everyone at the festival I think arrrgggggggghhhhhh

[the wonderwhy]

Hmm yeah Sunday night appears to be the new Friday night. 

To be fair every night from 7/8 is a clusterfuck for me at the moment.

[SophieBee]

I'm gutted about missing Grimes, but LCD Soundsystem definitely wins out for me. I think that's my worst clash - I'll pick Beck over PJ Harvey as I'm off to Field Day in a couple of weeks so will see her then.
