If you've been hacking with PHP or python/django, pick one of those and try to get as far with it as you can. You'll have to learn JS for the client-side portions of your app, anyway.
I don't think Go or JS's similarity to C syntax will help much, as you'll get used to python or PHP's syntax intricacies relatively quickly. As you mentioned, PHP and Python having more support will help a lot, too, both with libraries and with support on StackOverflow/the web when you're stuck.
