anyone else really struggling with the post glasto blues? This year was my favourite by far, and I thought an evening at Arcade Fire would help this however the crowd was so crap it's only made it worse :(

I need to be back at Glasto :(:(

My body and brain need some serious TLC. I'm full of a cold, got a coldsore the size of a mountain, I've oversmoked my chest and I keep crying at the littlest of things.

I was in a shop and they played Jessie J on the radio and I welled up (I'm not even a fan but it just bought back memories).

I have been feeling weepy all week though. I just need a hug, Sometimes living alone is not all that great :-(

ye,its left me wanting more and missing all the big and the little things about the place.

its wierd being unleashed back inte the wild,the "real" world,even though some parts of bare basics of glasto experience are much more real than real life itself,no overuse of technology and loss of real human communication and outdoor fun.

Although its also left me feeling happier,more easy going and feeling just quite good.

I could even be thinking of sneaking back in,hiding up a tree,make shifting a tree house home,or maybe just offering myself up as staff to do any job glasto people and the eavis's would have or want someone to help out with!.

The Glastoaches have definitely been replaced by the Glastoblues.

I don't want to watch any of the highlights just yet as it could make it worse.

Coming on here doesn't help either.

Good job we're over the moaning threads too.

I think this year was defo one of the best despite seeing hardly any bands. The thought of having to wait another 2 years is killing me. Even booking tickets for The Big Chill last night hasn't eased my pain. Still...only 103 weeks and 5 days to go until Glasto 2013 (not that I'm counting)!!!

The only blues I am suffering from is the having to deal with the unpacking. A mountain of tat to climb and put away until the next fest. Tedium of the highest.

Yesterday I was in the foulest possible mood ever! I think this years come down has been the worst. I've been keeping the memories alive by posting out programmes, putting my work id passes into my guardian guide lanyard and watching on tv, hopefully a few drinks tonight will see me right! Maybe its knowing the next is 2013 :-(

im on a massive glastonbury blues come down - my worst yet after 8 glasto's...

what a shit week - work is shite (as are the people), im shattered and havent been able to catch up on any sleep, so much so that i think i actually had more sleep on sunday night when i got back to my tent at around 5am than I have the past 2 nights!!

Its just crap isnt it - its all the little things that I miss from glastonbury... and the non-stop week long party of course...

Ive just been to tesco to buy 2 crates of brothers festival cider to cheer me up - its in the freezer for a quick chill... my god im going to murder that case tonight!!

Felt horrible on the Tuesday, didn't want to go back to work but now I'm back I'm fine. I've a good month ahead of me and Leeds in August. Still kinda gutted there's no Glasto next year but it just means venturing to a new fest.:D

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
