Noel Gallagher was interviewed on Virgin Radio and he had this to say about awards, from best newcomer to outstanding achievement:
Yeah they must have run out of people to give it to I don’t know. If Weller hadn’t done it last year I don’t think we’d have bothered, its not the first time they’ve asked us, first the initial reaction was no, then we started thinking we either do it now when we look good or do we succumb in ten years time when we just turned the corner, we still all can legitimately wear the leather jackets and it appealed to us that we’d be the youngest band to get it. When they do the retrospective film we won’t look too cheesy.
I don’t think many bands going to go from best newcomer to getting an outstanding achievement award, probably Coldplay are the next ones in line they could probably do it but they never got best newcomer.
