Do you ever look through old line ups and

think "why the hell didn't I see them/her/him!"

Me watching basement jaxx instead of Ian brown or the wailers for instance. Or choosing fatboy slim over the White stripes. Why on earth did I let that happen. Anybody else do this?

[WS_Jack_III]

Yes! But it's usually that i discovered an act after the festival then see their name on past line ups.

[SirDaniel]

I often wake up screaming in a film of cold sweat when my subconscious remembers I missed 'that' Flaming Lips set for Gorillaz.

Yep, do that a lot too! Seeing some band I absolutely love now low down on the John peel stage line up makes me cry inside.

[kbearne]

I missed Mogwai last year and regret it.

[Boopickledaddy]

Missed Jeff Buckley at Reading 1994. I didn't know his music at the time, but that one still smarts.

Recently, I regularly think why DID I go and see Rolf Harris.

[Hugh Jass]

My mates (quite rightly) will never let me live down the fact that I went to see Kasabian instead of Arcade Fire in 2007.

I do like to go through Clashfinders and try to remember how I navigated my way through each festival.

[Hugh Jass]

Recently, I regularly think why DID I go and see Rolf Harris.

The answer is "because everyone else did"

Felt like the whole festival was packed into Jazzworld in 09.

Watching the football instead of Slash and Ray Davies still gives me nightmares

The same reason why people wear silly hats. Those hats are almost as criminal too.

[The Placid Casual]

I chose Arctic Monkeys over Portishead. God knows why.

all the time!

missing Love for what appears to be turin brakes in 2003 is the biggest sickener for me.

The radiohead/SFA clash from the same year still irks me to this day too.

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

I did this the other day and tracked my movements through the festivals, thankfully don't think I missed too many people, or at least don't have the feeling I should be kicking myself about my decision making anyway.

Best decision i've ever made that was.

Ray Davies was a big highlight for me

Thanks! Lol

[sheffieldlady]

All the time. Mostly I miss people ever being on the line up, this year I plan on studying the line up in more detail!

[Bobs]

Thanks! Lol

Mind you... if you're Scottish... it may have been your highlight

Because he was a much loved TV personality, who was held in fond regard by millions. His 2010 performance was a happy memory for me right up until the court case got underway and it turned out the fucker was guilty. Fucking twat.

Missing Johnny Cash to see the Inspirals wasn't exactly my greatest hour.

[stuartbert two hats]

On topic, missing Radiohead in 97 for Primal Scream sticks out.

how old were you? I did something similar but my youthful self just didnt appreciate things like that back then.

sorry but that is the worst thing i have ever heard.

Jesus, I thought mine was bad...

18. I grew up listening to Johnny Cash and The Dubliners with my dad, so I don't even have ignorance as an excuse. What a twat.

This Is How It Feels is still a great tune, mind.
