Snow Patrol feted at Irish awards - BBC News

Morrissey has won best International Male at the Meteor awards held in Dublin’s Point Theatre last night. He faced truly stiff competition in the form of Eminem, George Michael, Usher, Kanye West and Robbie Williams. How and ever a win is a win and after being snubbed at the Brits its great to see him get something.

Also the equally delicious PJ Harvey picked up Best International Female.

As far as I know, he was not at the ceremony - but I didn't see it, so I'm not entirely sure. For Irish (and UK viewers with cable), the awards are repeated tomorrow (Sunday 27th) at 9pm on RTE2.

  • how could Morrissey be nominated for and win "Best International Male" and not even be nominated for "Best International Album"?

    and what was the time frame that these awards were being consisdered on because it is beyond me how U2 could not even be nominated for let alone win "Best Irish Band" and "Best Irish Album" by a landslide. instead they hand the honours to the God awful Snow Patrol.

    Snoopy Dogg Dogg was the lead entertainer of the night. Am I the only one to feel perplexity about what the big attraction is there, and could someone please educate me as to what genre that's called- dance, rap, grime? 2 decent Irish singer/song-writer acts that got recognition are Paddy Casey and Declan O' Rourke

    Moz was presumably at the Roxy again rather than at the Point, hopefully agreeing to a greeting and photo for someone around here to bring back and make our day!

  • I'm surprised that there havn't been a few more hip hip hoorays about this thumbs-up, or is it just like stating the obvious to us? I think it's a nice bonus anyway.
