Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, U2 Honoured at Q Awards

Monday, October 30th, 2006

oasis_neol.jpgThis shouldn’t be too surprising, considering Q’s love of the more… mesozoic among the rock fraternity. Oasis and U2 are hardly setting the world on fire of late.

However it is cool to see Da Monkeys are still getting their due rewards - their debut is a very fine piece of work indeed.

Oasis, Arctic Monkeys and U2 were the big winners at the 2006 Q Awards, with Oasis being crowned best act in the world today.

The band’s Noel Gallagher also collected the classic songwriter award at the London ceremony.

The Arctic Monkeys - who had four nominations - won the best album and the people’s choice awards, while U2 picked up the prize for innovation.

The Irish rockers also received the special one-off band of bands accolade.

It was awarded to U2 for polling most votes from Q readers in the lifetime of the Q Awards, and collected by U2 guitarist The Edge.
