Congratulations are due to At Ease, who have won the 2003 Interactive Music Award for Best Fan Site.
Cheers, Ade, from your friends at Green Plastic.

This week’s print issue of NME features none other than Radiohead on the cover (along with the headline, and I swear I’m not kidding here, “Kid Wa-Hey!”). Inside you’ll find a rather colorful 8-page photo pullout, featuring information on some of NME’s favorite shows as well as a sort of “Radiohead Year in Review”.
Also included is the result of NME’s Best Radiohead Songs Ever poll, and Street Spirit tops the chart.
I sometimes wonder what the good people over at NME would do if Radiohead, The Darkness, and The Strokes suddenly dropped off the face of the planet. More space for the White Stripes, I suppose.

Just a friendly reminder, the last day to order from w.a.s.t.e. and have your goodies arrive before Christmas is…
December 18th if you’re in the UK.
December 12th if you’re elsewhere in Europe.
December 11th if you’re in Canada, Japan, or the States.
December 8th if you live anywhere else.
Happy Capitalism to you…

Ananova reports that Merce Cunningham’s Split Sides, for which Radiohead and Sigur Ros composed some live music for earlier this year, will be headed over to Europe next year. Ananova says the band will again play live when the tour hits London’s Barbican Centre in October 2004 but NME says that they will not, they’ll just use a remixed version of the current music.

A glowing review of last night’s show in Glasgow can be found at the Glasgow Evening Times.
An excerpt-
“Rockers Radiohead played a breathtaking gig in front of 10,000 fans at the SECC last night.
The band breezed through an eclectic set that included a sharp dose of their old adrenaline-fuelled grinding rock tracks, a huge dollop of new songs and an awesome combination of lights and visuals.
The Oxford indie veterans crammed a wealth of material into the two-hour set, and effortlessly combined the early grungey tendencies of Just with the drum ‘n’ bass ferocity of newer songs from the era of Kid A, Amesiac and their latest album, the massively acclaimed Hail To The Thief.”
