Super Furry Animals for Green Man

United Kingdom | | 25 January 2008

Super Furry Animals have been announced as Saturday night headliners at this year's Green Man Festival in Wales.

The psychedelic rockers will perform in their home country after requesting a slot at the Powys festival during an interview last year.

As previously reported on Virtual Festivals, bassist Guto Pryce said: “Yeah, we'd love to do Green Man, but I'm pushing for Thursday morning so I can get it out the way. Thursday afternoon, first band on. Yeah, love to, Green Man's the best. It's the most fun I've had at a festival.”

The band haven't got their desired Thursday set but will instead be headlining the prestigious Saturday night slot on the main stage. Many more acts will be announced in the coming months.

Tickets for the sixth Green Man Festival, which will take place from 15-17 August, are now on sale priced £105 for the weekend.

It will be the third year running the festival will take place at Glanusk Park, Brecon Beacons, Wales.
and the capacity will stay at 10,000 - the same as last year's event.

On-site camping and parking is included and entry is free for Under 12s. There will be an additional cost for those wishing to bring a live-in vehicle.
