See, i'm a big Bob Geldof fan, but this kind of thing annoys me for a few reasons, this is not a contribution to music award but a live aid/band aid thing. ?This has been brought to light by band aid 20 which was actually started by Midge Ure not Bob who had little to do with it. Bob has done a few great songs but his contribution to music is less than that of his partner in live aid/band aid, Midge who has done a lot of great production work etc too.

seems a bit odd that the nominees for best group and best rock act are almost identical yet they both go ahead. dunno..

Yeah it's weird but a lot of categories seem to have the same 5 bands in them...

I gave up on the brits ages ago. They are just a ploy to get the punters buying more music at a traditionaly quiet time of the year. The brit awards as far as I can remember have never had any merit to them apart from the many stupid presenters!

I take it everyone is well past the stage of being shocked at how awful the Brits are by now?

The "Best British Single" nominees definitely mark a new low, though.

Apparently the highlight of this year's show is going to be a Bedingfield family duet. Can't. Fucking. Wait.

No nominations for Busted...strange.
