[Crud note: I lifted the pre-1999 list from a Super Furry fansite which has disappeared offline – it’s recorded here for prosperity and will remain so until I die – the posters and videos are from various sources and I’ve added other gigs I know about – enjoy!]
Super Furry Animals are touring their ‘Fuzzy Logic’ album and the follow-up ‘Radiator’, in order, back to back will undoubtedly take it’s toll on any band… That going-through-the-motions feeling, that feeling of three-down, ten to go…

Fe soniais yn fy ngholofn bythefnos yn ol (10 Mehefin) wrth adolygu Gwyl Merthyr Rising 2015, fod grwp newydd Cian Ciaran o’r Super Furrys, a’i gariad Estelle Ios, sef y Zefur Wolves, wedi adfer fy ffydd mewn cerddoriaeth.

Tonight was the chance to not only capture their set in full, but also an extended version; a ‘we’ve been away far too long’ extended version.More
The Super Furry Animals stable is a prolific one… Since their self imposed hiatus in 2009 the individual members have been extremely busy of late with their various solo projects.
