Jne___ Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) Cried at the end of Kate tempest. Completely felt myself losing it then looked around and I was gone. began to cry in the killers at the moment of "staaaaaaaay if you wanna love me staaaaay - oh don't be shy, lets cause a scene..." In glamorous indie rock and roll, also in read my mind. They had been my absolute favourite band through the ages of 10 - 16, one of the first I saw live, twice, yet I hadn't listened to them for ages but managed to get so close and adored it! I don't even know what emotion I was feeling at the point of foo fighters everlong fireworks. Also welled up in biffy many of horror Edited June 29, 2017 by Jne___ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also couldn't stop crying after Shaggy. Brought back memories of being a youngster Aww, bless you, CG. I just about managed to hold it together during Do You Realize, right up to the point when the band left the stage, and some random bloke just grabbed me and gave me a hug. Then I was in bits! He asked if I was ok, so I explained why the song means so much to me, and he immediately told the group he was with, who all hugged me too.

faymondo Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Normally cry on a sunday. Previous years "Lucille" Kenny Rogers "Hello" Lionel Ritchie "Caravan of love" Heaton & Abbott. This year had tears on Friday at Hacienda Classical and Corbyn's speech Saturday but was having too much fun on Sunday to cry !! (Gibb & Chic) Created my Glastonbury 2017 playlist on spotify on Tuesday and my lip wobbled as "One Day Like This" by Elbow played. Still feel like crying as though my upset tummy is settling down I still have post Glastonbury manflu ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke88 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Don't know what's happened to me over the last couple of years, but I'm at risk of crying all the bloody time! Anything's enough to set me off. Was blubbing like a baby all the way through First Aid Kit as they're my seven-year-old daughter's favourite band, and I was wishing she was there, thinking how much she'd love it. Few tears in Flaming Lips just for being so bloody brilliant and making so many people so happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Due to some unusual circumstances mine was by no means a perfect festival, so I've been unusually stoic this week. However, nearly got the glassy eyes when Shaun Keaveny played the Bee Gees earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossTC Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Basically the whole of London Grammers set i was an absolute mess, all the great memories of the weekend going through my mind then all the great years before.

TheSheriff Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Thanks for the condolances, we are all meeting up later to remember the good times and there were plenty of those. Whilst at the festival the tears rolled on several occasions, Me & Bobby McGhee by Kris Kristofferson my Gran who passed away at the beginning of the year, it was her favourite song that hit me. May I add I thought KK was particularly brave considering his diagnosis of dementia and leaving himself bare with just an acoustic guitar, also the two guitarists with him done a wonderful job guiding him when needed. Billy Bragg leading the crowd on Sunday afternoon in a singalong of Where Have All The Flowers Gone? It was absolutely stunning I'm sure I had something in my eye then.

Unfortunately whilst at Glastonbury a friend of our whole group hung himself, he had been struggling with alcoholism over the past year. Understandingly I've found myself even more melancholy then on previous times since returning from the farm Mate bad times. Sorry to hear this. Hope you're ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've only gone and set me off!! That's so fucking lovely! I love people at glastonbury. I don't much like people in real life. I'm pleased you had 'your moment'!

verrymerry Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I burst into tears on Thursday because I was feeling dizzy and probably quite hormonal, the guy in the Info tent was lovely and I felt so sorry for him having me blubber away!

TheNewUnion Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) I've been O.K. since I got home. Feeling quite chilled now, the Manchester bombing had really got me down in the run up and I was quite tearful before the festival. Had a good bulb from the minutes silence at the beginning of Hacienda Classical to You Got The Love at the end. Standard tearful episode to Living Years. Then, after that felt happy again. Oddly, a bit of a wobble at Tilbrook/Difford (same at Squeeze last year, I have a distant post club 3am memory of driving home alone with "Tempted" on the radio, weirdly emotional moment on a country road). All in all, I think a bit of free-and-easy sobbing at Hac' and Carrick did me good. Edited June 29, 2017 by TheNewUnion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt - Ed Banger Records Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 This years at Glastonbury cries - First Aid Kit (Emylou), Jeremy Corbyn Speech, Justice (Waters of Nazareth) Post Glastonbury cries - watching any Glastonbury set c.5, On a train to London when my Glastonbury playlist came on, while texting a friend about how good Justice were, many more. I have just about stopped welling up at simple things now, the comedown is finally easing. I think there will be tears on Saturday at The Maccabees and then will be me done. I don't half cry a lot at musical triggers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a quasi 'our song' with an ex too which makes it all the worse when I hear it live, broke up just before we went to the Royal Albert Hall gig a few years back.

Lovely times Yeah, Mrs gumby and I each made CDs when we found out gumby jr. was on the way. We played them to 'the bump' during pregnancy, and then had them playing during labour, as (hopefully) familiar tunes. 'Do You Realize' was the last one on the cd I made, and happened to be the song playing when he was delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpfranks Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 When Radiohead played No Surprises that set me off a little. And then again on Karma Police. They don't even have any specific meaning to me, but it was just so beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
