yep, at the 37 years of age i do not hide from anyone, i in my twenties was simply just too you to really appreciate what was going on with the music scene in general, the Brits in particular.

you do, however, realize that your comment agrees with what i said, don't you? the Manics albums which won the Brits are the ones which sold loads. odd that SATT didn't get anything, or did it?

When (if) this happens, instead of playing the usual medley of hits at the end they should play a medley of Patrick Bateman, The Intense Humming Of Evil, Stay Beautiful and Williams Last Words.

In fact, there's more chance of that happening than there is of them winning a Brit this year.

Oh yeah, they'll probably win it. Maybe Manics might get the last nomination, they're doing loads of gigs and not relying on space ships and stuff.

The Brits have a lifetime recognition type award don't they? Maybe they're in for an outside chance of something like that? Nah, I'm probably just being optimistic. Why am I being optimistic? What do I care...

I think I'd rather they didn't get the lifetime achievement award from the Brits considering Robbie has won it........

Robbie hasn't done much in terms of North America since the album after 'I've Been Expecting You'.
