i know
bit grumpy of me
and i love green man like it was me own
but no, they've never done anything for me
i like a smoke as much as the next man
but that doesn't make howard marks a nice person
i suppose i was just expecting something a bit more exciting
no doubt yet to come!
cheers
ray

I really like SFA, but good call on Howard Marks - not someone I'd want on the cover of my first album!

SFA OK
Nicely!
Enjoy the Folky Dokey tent Ray. The Furries are ever present at Greenman! DJ sets in the Rumpus Room last year, Candylion on the main stage, Gruff Rhys in Folky Dokey 2006. It's great news!

musically, they completely depend on my mood (and obviously who else is on at the same time). seen them live a couple of times, and they haven't dissappointed.
now asthetically, well thats something else, and the picuture on this thread emphasises that perfectly.
he just looks so damn delicious, and his voice, singing and speaking. wow, melt swoon.
sorry, got a bit carried away there.
i blame my age.

I'm very happy with that. Wanted to see Beirut for a while and Black Mountain are a superb band on record, even better live.

BEIRUT - are playing! This is the most exciting news I could have heard about acts for this years show. They, for me, are simply THE most inspirational and life-affirming band around and I am now SO excited about this year's Green Man already - this is BRILLIANT news. For those who've not seen them live, then all I can say is prepare yourself for an evening of musical beauty the like of which you'll never forget.
