Pinhead Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 I freely admit feeling unusually emotional about that Park gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingbat2 Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 Assume its the realisation that this man is human like the rest of us. He has seemed superhuman for the last 50 years and suddenly we might be realising that he is vulnerable like the rest of us, especially being the age he is, crumbs he's 87, bloody wow! No doubt he will have many more happy years at the farm just maybe not quite as active, but hopefully enjoying his creation, hopefully he can sit back and enjoy it all, I wish him the best. The festival is in safe hands with Emily, I hope he enjoys the legacy he has created for many years to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalifire Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Professional from Gabriels. Utterly stunning. The break before the finish was pure crowd elation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The break before the finish was pure crowd elation. Glad I was the only one. We were probably all wearing sunglasses which was hiding the fact that we were all bawling 🙂 I had a moment too when Young Fathers got the crew to chant Refugees are welcome, and at the end of CMAT.

amfy Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Raye - Ice Cream Man. A song she wrote about being sexually assaulted by a music producer and a song for all women’s experience of sexual harm. Her voice broke as she was introducing it which set me off crying before it even started, then all the way through it, then I had sun cream in my eyes and cried for the rest of her set! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Lottery Winners, Letter To Myself on Avalon. Couldn't sing along properly. Lip wobbling all over the place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collectivisedfarming Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Kae Tempest with Speakers Corner Quartet. Just seemed so excited to be up there amongst friends saying how they used to go as punters and now they're on the West Holts and other inspiring stuff. That whole London jazz scene that Speakers Corner are part of has just the best vibes. They brought out Shabaka Hutchins and Joe from Ezra Collective too. No egos, no pretence, just loads of mates making great music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Matador Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Assumed this thread was about walking along the railway track on Sunday afternoon. Like trekking across the Sahara desert when the wind picked up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catavento Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) Unexpectedly, Badly Drawn Boy in the Acoustic. Not somebody I've really thought about for maybe a couple of decades but I was so keen for shade on Saturday afternoon. Turned out to be a really moving set in places (for him too) and when the guy did A Minor Incident I was in absolute bits, chin wobbling, the lot. Obviously a proper talented songwriter who's had his ups and downs over the years since he wrote those songs - hope he makes it back to form and we hear more of them. Don't know how he managed to get through it still wearing a woolly hat though... The other teary moment was when Cat/Yusuf did Father and Son and the guy in front of me was singing it to his little son, but that feels too obvious. Also Gabriels as above. Didn't know the songs other than one or two, but just his voice was enough, bloody hell. Edited June 27, 2023 by catavento 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still looks a little fragile but it was great seeing him finding his feet again. I was by myself and had a proper lip wobbling moment during Silent Sigh.

moogster Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 Some kudos from me to the gentleman who cried through Beth Orton's crows nest set. It was already good but seeing him enjoying it so intensively was making me sniffy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlastoFlow Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) I cried my eyes out (at home) during Cat/Yusuf Stevens If You Want To Sing Out, Sing Out. I didn’t expect him to play it so hearing my favourite song, featured heavily on my favourite film (Harold and Maude) threw me off. I so wish I’d been there.

kevtamuk Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 I fell apart at the Pyramid on Friday when they showed the faces of the three people killed in Nottingham on the screens with their mothers' quotes about tolerance, accompanied by John Lennon's Imagine. Standing there with my two daughters I felt so emotional for the victims family and friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
