Radiohead

Toots

The National

Loads more I'll have to see as well, but I'll have to accept that they'll probably be some cruel clashes. If any of the above clash though I'll have to go on a rampage.

[PurpleFire]

Add First Aid Kit to my list! Beautiful!

[Untz]

As long as I see Future Islands and at least one Mik Artistik gig I'll be happy.

[chatty]

Should any of these not clash then Im hoping I can see all of:

Radiohead

The Flaming Lips

Toots and The Maytals

Mark Lannegan

The National

By the rumoured page Radiohead and Mark Lannegan are gonna clash currenrly whixh would suck. 

[Jasonbee]

Chic

Katy Perry

Shaggy

[swede]

Radiohead

The XX

Chic

Lorde

Haim

Biffy

Barry Gibb

London Grammer 

[Matt - Ed Banger Records]

I know I am going to have some hideous clashes, but my must sees are Solange, Radiohead, First Aid Kit, The xx, and then the long list is nearly the entire line up to be honest - the list of acts I would watch without hesitation on their is 53, my 'actively avoid list is a mere 14 which for a first poster announcement is unheard of.

[slash's hat]

Where's shaggy likely to be? Looks like he'll get a big crowd.

Yeah I've got pretty similar feelings...there's not a lot I'd actively avoid. Luckily there's a few on there I've already seen/are about to see/will see after the festival which might help with clashes, but there's still going to be some mighty tough decisions. Still, a nice problem to have!

[Hotchilidog]

Foos the only one must see for me. They backed by a shedload of I would like to sees wo are negotiable.

Toots, Haim, Royal Blood, Frank Carter, Katy Perry, Mark Lanegan, Ride, BSP to chuck a few names out there. It's looking like a busy one for me already and they have barely released any of the line up.

[Quark]

I'm trying to hold off getting too far down this rabbit hole until we get some ideas of clashes!  But at the moment:

Radiohead

Justice

Toots

Songhoy Blues

There are, however, an absolute shitload on there that are on the longlist!

[kingbadger]

Look at you all, tempting and baiting the clash gods. I won't be falling into your trap.

[Funkyfairy!]

At initial glance

Future Islands

Rag n Bone Man

Biffy

BSP

London Grammar

And I'm sure many more

 

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Justice, The XX, Flaming Lips, Future Islands, Metronomy, Boys Noize, Haim, plus Shaggy and Katy Perry for a laugh!

[DownboundTrain52]

From the top - the must-see:

Radiohead.

Chic.

Katy Perry.

...

Everybody else is fair game to be honest. Would love to see Biffy - both times I've caught them are in my all time top 20 gigs - but because I've seen them twice, I'd skip them for someone I haven't done before if needs be. I need to give Solange's latest a few spins again because I reckon I could head West Holts for her instead. Of the three listed, Radiohead and Chic are moving heaven and hell for. Perry would be superb - but again, let's see who turns up where.

[ConorC]

Counted 42 names I'd like to see so far.

Might be worth just not going so I don't have to deal with the amount of clashes.

[DrWackadoodle]

The Flaming Lips

Songhoy Blues

Loyal Carner

Thundercat

Royal Blood

[hpants]

Ride

Alt J

Radiohead

Father John Misty 

[The Nal]

Where do Sleaford Mods play? 

[Wooderson]

Peel.

[jparx]

I've still not had time to fully digest it because it dropped as I was leaving for work, but Radiohead, The National, Toots, Flaming Lips, The xx, Avalanches are the ones that immediately got me excited.

[fingers_mark]

Phoenix, Future Islands, Chic, Moderat, Shaggy, The National, Flaming Lips

Looks a great year
