1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    meh, it was a crap choice this year really. Quite like the Zutons, but that's about it.

    All fantastic albums... it is a shame though because The Streets missed out last time they were noiminated and have missed out again. The bandm you think will win this prize never does :)

    franz ferdinand rock! they're original and they have a great live show, they deserved to win, like so many others though too, it's impossible to have ONE award for so many different catagories.
    i think they're cool though - plus they're giving all the money away...
