Your Biggest 2015 Sacrifice

Lamb, and Hot Chip, for the Foos.... I really love the other two and that would be bad enough but must do the Foos as while I love them slightly less this is a one and only chance

Five way clash PAH. I laugh at your easy choices - I had an unprecedented and hopefully never to be repeated seven way clash a year or so back, I agonised over it right down to the line... hats off to the festival, but hate hate hate

Hot Chip, but if Foo Fighers not as good I'd expect with the opening I may try and get to Hot Chip anyway.

FFS, was looking forward to it as their London date is the monday after, but I doubt we will see the Who at Glasto again even if I am a massive Franz Ferdinand fanboy.

Goat :( (If their set was half hour/45 minutes earlier I'd be able to see them! Grr! They was brilliant on West Holts the other year!

Run the Jewels/Bejamin Booker both acts I've only just got into this year...but I am going with RTJ as I am far more likely to go to a Booker gig outside of Glasto.

And I guess whoever loses from Mavis Staples/DFA 1979 not sure which way I will go yet with that one.

King Gizzard are on twice if didn't know and it helps.

Friday about 1pm on the park

Friday at about 6pm in Williams green

Their park set clashes with The Cribs and Everything Everything, their Williams Green set clashes with The Vaccines and Run The Jewels :(

Suede for the George Clinton, Family Stand, Parliament party in West Holts. I really want to go to both but it's just not possible and having The Family Stand there with George is such a one off that I've gone for them in the end.

They might not you know as last year at BST they played it earlier on, it defo wasn't near the end

Latest setlists from Motorhead's festival appearances have Ace of Spades last but one

Take up a spot stage right, then high-tail it to Wilko.
For me, I'll almost certainly not see Ryan Adams, which is a shame. That aside, there are clashes but I have two other festivals this year and some of those I will miss, I might catch at the other events so all is not lost.

Jamie xx.

If he was playing live shows I'd still be torn, but the fact he's just doing DJ sets is making me lean towards catching all of Hot Chip, then legging it over to Avalon for the second half of Lamb.

Also Caribou. I'd love to see Caribou, and the RTJ, Caribou, Hot Chip run is golden, but there's no way I'll be anywhere other than at Sharon van Etten.

Hot Chip vs Lamb is the evil, 2015 version of 2013's Chic ft. Nile Rodgers vs Portishead clash. Went for the dancey, party option last time (as, the Missus made it very clear that she'd divorce me if I made her miss Chic). May go the other way this time.

At least it's not a total clash though, there is some overlap. I'm just hoping Lamb save Gorecki, Gabriel and Trans Fatty Acid for the second half of their set, although I suspect they'll throw one of those in early in the mix.

Saturday night for me, although im cheating a bit here as it's not a headache style clash, more ive been left free to choose as there is no one i am desperate to see that night. All my group are split in two with half going to Kanye and the other half off to Suede, im not fussed about either so i am left split between Mothership or Jon Hopkins, two acts i havent listened to tons of but always enjoy hearing. Kings of funk throwing one big party at West Holts or one hell of an atmospheric audio visual feast up at the park? I think mothership may just nick it as it's a lot less likely i'll see them again.

Mine are Chems, Grandmaster Flash, George the Poet, PSB, Leftfield and Mothership.

(although if Kanye does not live up to expectation then I will be heading to one of PSB or Mothership - depending on who wants to come with me from my group)

I have a feeling that with such a strong Saturday night - if Kanye isn't incredible there will be a lot of movement away from the pyramid.

True, true - but I'm either of an age or a disposition that can't be doing with dashing between things, to see this then catch a bit of that. Saying that, it's not like West Holts and the Avalon are that far apart. We'll see. I have been mainlining 'Best Kept Secrets' all weekend though and I would be gutted, proper heartbroken if I saw half of Lamb's set and missed 'Gabriel'. Need to see if I can find any set-lists - not sure if they've been gigging recently . . . .

I'm so lucky I've only really got one clash! In order - Leftfield then Public Service Broadcasting then Neville Staple. Will almost def be Leftfield unless I'm completely shattered and opt to chill a bit more at PSB.

Chemical Brothers will be a massive miss for me. I know this is the only chance of me seeing The Who, and I don't want to live with the regret of missing it.

I really want to see Future Island's as well, but it overlaps with Lionel, and the fact it's on the Other Stage makes the decision a bit easier. If it was in JP it would have been a harder decision.

Mine are The Who, I was going to see them but I'm not a massive fan and it would just be out down as a 'yeah I've seen them' whereas I think chems will be amazing. The others the Maccabees for DFA1979 cause they're easily my must see of the weekend
