How many acts are you planning on seeing for the first time?

[beaker]

After studying clash finder I am planning/hoping to see 15 acts of those I will be seeing 9 of them for the first time. Which is probably a record for me.

(Blonde, rodrigo y gabriela, de la soul, wild beasts, the daptone super soul review, ballet, thunderbirds are go, dolly and the black keys)

How many new bands are you planning on seeing over the weekend?

[kingcrawler]

Wild Beasts, The War on Drugs, Jack White, Warpaint, Lana Del Rey, MGMT, Lucy Rose.

[pentura]

Pretty much everyone I wanna see I've never seen before, aside from BJM, Pixies, Dry The River, The Beat and a few others

[Yesiamaduck]

PLAN?!?!

Da fuck is PLAN?

[pentura]

PLAN?!?!

Da fuck is PLAN?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

My would-be-gutted-to-miss list is Haim, Lily Allen, Paolo Nutini, Kaiser Chiefs, Nick Mulvey, Kelis, Lana Del Ray, Goldfrapp, The 1975, Dolly, Ed Sheeran, Yoko Ono and James Blake which is 13 and I've only seen one of them before, and add to that pretty much anyone else on the bill who I end up seeing, I'm not much of a gig-goer..

[baxterboy]

I'll have a good look at the planner once the tent is up.

[Lord Rooster]

I'd hazard a guess that around 80% or more of the acts I end up seeing over the course of the festival will be ones that I've never seen live. Especially high up on the list priority-wise are The War On Drugs, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Jack White, Public Service Broadcasting and Dolly Parton.

[evilduck]

Polica, Fat White Family, Mogwai, Thunderbirds Are Go and Dolly Parton are probably the only ones on my list that I've never seen before. I do go to a large amount of gigs and festivals though.

[Avalon_Fields]

Guaranteed new acts whatever I catch at Small World, Toad Hall, etc which in their randomness I will enjoy most

Other than that as many of these as I can:

The War on Drugs

Dolly Parton

Vintage Trouble

Phosphorescent

The Wailers

Bonobo

Sun Ra Arkestra

[Guitargeek]

Four Tet, J 5, War on Drugs, Pretty Lights, Thunder Birds are Go, Robert Plant, Pixies, Jack White (seen stripes though), Massive Attack, Bonobo, Wailers.

I'm ignoring clashes. Come to think of it, the only acts I've seen already that I'll be at again are Metallica and Rod Gab.

[FloorFiller]

if i stick to my current plan (which i won't) i'll be seeing for the first time:

The War On Drugs

Courtney Barnett

Parquet Courts (although might see them in Liverpool a couple of days earlier)

Chvrches

Paolo Nutini / Lykke Li

Young Fathers

Royal Blood

Lana Del Rey

Manic Street Preachers

Pixies

Dolly Parton

St. Vincent

Bonobo

not a bad haul. i'd say i'll probably end up seeing half of those, but it'd be a real shame to miss any of them so think i'm gonna make a lot more effort to see all the acts i want to this year

[giantkatestacks]

I pretty much only see people for the first time and only repeat festival faves like Biggles, John Hegley, Dreadzone or whatever, if they are new and I have seen them before then am not really interested in making a special effort.

My first time list this year is

Robert Plant

Dolly

War on Drugs

Warpaint

Wolf Alice

Radiophonic Workshop

Jack White

Tuneyards

Lykke li

Have just looked at my clashfinder and see that I am talking total gubbins as usual as have R&G and the Selector down, both of which I have seen before but they are special cases as they are both so bloody good.

[Titters2]

8ish.

Definitely Jimi Goodwin, Jagwar Ma and London Grammar.

And maybes...

Royal Blood & Wolf Alice

Deltonron 3030 (clash depending)

Skrillex

Phosphorescent

TuneYards.

I expect maybe half of these will actually happen.

[Ged Devereux]

Paolo

Blondie

Lily Allen

Chvrches

Manics

Bombay BC

Warpaint

Courtney Barnett

Jagwar Ma

Royal Blood

Wolf Alice

Surprised at how many really as i go to a lot of festivals and gigs, not many of my favourite artists playing this year but loads im looking forward to seeing especially Paolo

[hjglasto]

Dolly Parton

Paolo Nutini

Pixies

Bonobo

Massive Attack

Jamie xx

Chance the rapper

Tune-Yards

most I really want to see I've seen before, if briefly/ages ago.

How many new bands are you planning on seeing over the weekend?

[drewsstrat]

That's part of glastonbury for me. The clashfinder and spotify combine so I can wade through a few tracks of bands to see their potential. Of course there are plenty of big bands I haven't seen and are looks forward to (dolly,Robert plant,blondie). But I'm already happy with some of my discoveries;

So far these are my favourites so on potential watch list

Friday

Band of skulls. Other stage 3.30. I've seen these before (iow I believe), bluesy indie rock al la jack white. English band.

Holly Williams. Following Danny & champions of world. Acoustic 3pm. Country with attitude. She's hank Williams granddaughter (and good looking too)

Tony joe White. Acoustic 4pm. Country tinged US blues/rock. Think seasick Steve type groves.

Vintage trouble. West holts 5.30pm. Puts me in mind of the blues brothers crossed with Otis reading crossed with Gary Clarke jr. This may be a definite for me on what I've heard so far

Saturday

Rusty shackles . 11.30 Avalon. These supported chas n Dave at the globe, and are not a bad band. Lots going on in a Mumford and son style.

Midlake. Other stage 2pm. Texas based melodic rock with a 60s influence. Remind me of beach boys harmonies coupled with the byrds riffs

Kodaline. Other stage.4.40pm. Irish guitar and harmony rock, with radio ready hook lines. I liked them.

Sunday

Lonely the brave. 1.20pm. John peel tent. Don't remember doing JP last year, so these are my favourites so far for a diversion.. Listenable rock, indie come U2/big country

[Andeeroo]

I've only seen a handful of bands on the lineup and the only ones I'm planning on seeing again are Vintage Trouble and The Subways so everyone else that I see is going to be a first time watch.

Particularly looking forward to seeing J5, Courtney Barnett, Rodrigo Y Gabriela, Jack White, Metallica and Royal Blood,

[Ruwise]

Definitely want to see Tune Yards, Dolly Parton and Suzanne Vega.

[bexj]

Dolly, temples, jagwar ma, yoko ono, for starters.... And pixies for the first time since 1989 too....

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Kodaline. Other stage.4.40pm. Irish guitar and harmony rock, with radio ready hook lines. I liked them.
