For their forthcoming North American tour (beginning tomorrow in Brooklyn), Welsh wonders the Super Furry Animals have developed a request line allowing fans to place requests to hear their favourite songs at specific shows (embedded below).
According to the Beggars Banquet blog, "The band will be taking requests via this little embeddable voting widget. Just select the show and find the song that you want the band to play, and then vote. The results are being tracked in real-time - Super Tuesday style - and will be fed to the band as they course around the U.S. [and Canada.]" The band will play two Canadian dates on this leg of their North American stint, which include Toronto's Mod Club Theatre on February 20, and Montreal's Cabaret the following night. Various tour support comes from Holy Fuck (1/23 to 2/12), the Fiery Furnaces (1/27 to 2/1), Times New Viking Support (2/15 to 2/25) and Jeffrey Lewis (2/15 to 2/21).
