We was robbed

6 September 2006

Sorry about the lack of a decent blog post today; I went to the Mercury Music Awards ceremony (at quite a short notice) so I’m going to have to be a bit brief.

Needless to say, the wrong people – Arctic Monkeys – won. That’s not to say that I don’t like the Arctic Monkeys; and the album is very strong, but I simply don’t think it’s as good as the Thom Yorke record which is probably my record of the year so far.

Of the live performers, Thom was easily the best (it’s not often you get to see him perform live solo as well), although I also enjoyed Hot Chip and Editors were surprisingly good – I’m not really a fan of the album (far too generic) but they were not too bad live.

Hopefully back to your regularly scheduled ramblings of boring web stuff tomorrow; after BarCamp I have a whole load of thoughts I’d like to commit to type before I forget them…
