well well well!

i always look forward to the NME awards, and 2008's were pretty good!

SPECIAL WINNERS
BEST TV SHOW - THE MIGHTY BOOSH
It was expected really, because of the soaring popularity the show has got over the past couple of years, but always lovely to see them win something

BEST DRESSED - NOEL FIELDING
duuuh, obviously

SEXIEST MAN - NOEL FIELDING
double duuh!

BEST SOLO ARTIST - KATE NASH

BEST ALBUM - THE KLAXONS (MYTHS OF THE NEAR FUTURE)
great band and they did 'atlantis to interzone' to kick the awards off too!

THE "NME READERS NEED A GOOD BEATING WITH AN ELECTRIC BATON TO PUNISH THEM VOTING FOR THESE AND THEN UNDERGOING MENTAL HELP" AWARDS

BEST NEW BAND - THE ENEMY
whattttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt? whatttttttttttttttttttttttttt? although they aren't extremely bad, and technodanceaphobic is alright, what about FOALS? and JOE LEAN AND THE JING JANG JONG? and PIGEON DETECTIVES? for frikks sake!
*although the award was presented by Faris Rotter, lovelovelove for no 1) being freaking ace 2) being in the horrors and 3) making tom something from the enemy look like a complete utter twat, hahahahaha.*
