Guto Pryce, bassist for Super Furry Animals, has said the band would love to play next year’s Green Man festival.
The question of headlining the event was put to Pryce in a fan-composed interview that DiS conducted with the band last week.
While the act would apparently be reluctant to top the last night’s bill, they would like to play on the Thursday afternoon in the build-up to the weekend.
“I'd rather play Thursday morning,” 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.”

Tickets for 2008’s festival went on sale on the 29th of October – get them at TheGreenManFestival.com.

Green with envy
I've not been to the Green Man, but this could tempt me.
Band want to play festival. Lineup not yet announced
Is that really news?
i think you mean
IS THIS NEWS?!??!?!?!
SFA
at Green man would be perfect, but like the man says, Sunday night is too late. Malkmus really suffered because a) noone knew his songs and b) most of the crowd left after Devendra anyway.
I
don't agree with b. There was still a big crowd for Malkmus. Also, a lot of festival acts are playing to audiences who don't know them.
SFA would be perfect for the Sunday night I reckon.
more music on the thursday
or can they just get battles back again? and put them on every night, at about 2am?
yeah
i hate battles but i was hammered by the time they started on the saturday night, and danced my arse off for the duration.
Gruff @ Green man
this year was wicked!
