Which act do you most regret not going to see when you were at Glastonbury?

[Breeze]

My worst screw up was missing Page and Plant in '95 - due to being completely unaware what day it was or what time it was, or what field I was in at the time.

[disasterplan]

Everything on the Sunday in 08. Though to be fair I was busy paying for the Saturday night, which is my favourite non-musical spell at any Glast I've ever been to.

[Greenish]

sleeping my way through brendon burns, cabaret tent, saturday night 2009. the only show i've missed of his at glastonbury in a decade!

[mandypants]

I'd have liked to have seen Lily Allen, but I was busy getting therapied in the Healing Fields. No regrets, I felt awesome after that

Mega City Four at my first glastonbury in 1993. They were my absolute must see of the whole weekend. Went to the NME (other) stage field early to get my spot. I got chatting to a friendly type who shared his smokeables with me. Much stronger stuff than i was used to...it literally knocked me out! I slept thought all of MC4's set, waking up to the final chord and 'Thank you Glastonbury, goodbye!'

I was absolutely gutted at the time But i saw them loads after that anyway, so..

by the way, does anyone remember if the other stage field used to be sited differently in '93? I'm sure i was halfway up a hill...near a tree...did it used to be in Pennards or something?!

Missed The Low Anthem last year for Rolf I hope they come back as I would marry Oh my God Charlie Darwin!

Its the perfect album Its in every way love on a CD.

[verrymerry]

Missed Elbow for Band of Horses, who were great but were never going to be as good. Fancy missing One Day Like This!

chas and dave at lost vagueness in 07. was at the other side of the site and by the time i got to my tent which was halfway, it was pishing down and late and i just wanted to go to bed.

saw them before on the friday i think, but was still disappointed.

Chemical Brothers Other Stage 2007, the mud and rain finally broke me on the sunday night and i just couldn't raise the energy to trudge over there (from Kidney Mead) ended up watching The Who from under the gazebo whilst nursing my trench feet.

[spudzzz]

Radiohead 97 - watched a really boring, really late primal scream instead - DOH!!!

[LusciousLucy]

Doooooh indeed!

My DOH was last year...had absolutely no idea that the Blur thing was to be a final thing and went with the damn fool idea of seeing the shite that was the Prodigy. Tbh, had I gone to see the Black Eyed Peas instead I would not be so angry forever with myself (they sounded relatively good from ALL THE WAY OVER IN PENNARDS 20 MINUTES AFTER THE PRODGE FINISHED!) FFS!

[smiley4999]

really wish i'd gone to see yeah yeah yeahs as I've just really got into them didint think much of them at the time!

oh and pendulum went to see kasabian, who were rubbish seemed even less into putting on a show than oasis when i went to see them which is saying something

Bon Iver probably.

[ramragon]

i regret not going to see band of horses in 2008. i saw elbow and wouldnt have missed it for anything, however with a change in schedule it would have been different.

[Boris]

echo and the bunnymen with full orchestra, playing ocean rain album in JP .

[BANJOBANJOBANJO]

Missing Bon Iver's park set for the Boss last year. Bruce was great but everyone I know who was at Bon Iver said it was just something else

I watched The Prodigy aswel instead of Blur, I have no idea why i did ither because i've seen them before but i guess it was down to me being fairly drunk and just wanted to rave.

[Langdale Wolf]

I went to see Cypress Hill in 2000 and should have seen the Bloodhound Gang, who apparently were hilarious (Hooray for Boobies was flying high in the charts at the time).

But I don't like Cypress Hill at all. I only went along to keep a mate happy. Some scumbag threw a lit Q Daily at us. And they were shit.

So folks - don't be dragged along to bands you don't like! Break free.

Seeing the Chemical Brothers (disappointing) instead of The Bootleg Beatles in 2007. Luckily The Bootleg Beatles are (probably) playing again this year, so I'll be able to make up for that.

Missing Adam and Joe at the cabaret (I think) stage last year. I didn't even realise they were at Glastonbury until Monday morning when we were packing away and I noticed an old discarded Guardian Guide, picked it up and saw to my dismay that they'd had a slot telling jokes.

The National and Spiritualized, 2008. Although, I did have one of the best nights of my life in Shangri-La!
