News Bites: 25th February 2010

Public voting: the way to make sure your awards are bang up to date! Errr.

Sometimes news is news, but isn't news. This, and other such nonsensical editorial discussions has brought us to News Bites - the daily article where we direct you to the stories we can't (or can't be bothered) to scrape together enough words from to form an article.

This page will be updated throughout the day with anything 'happening', so keep coming back. Please? We'll beg if we have to.

If you're wondering why today ends up being so bloody slow, it's probably because it was the NME awards last night, so everyone else is hungover in some in Brixton. It seems like 80% of the winners actually came via a time warp from 2006, so hurrah for that. If you want to know who took what, NME.com will no doubt talk of little else all day, so you're safe there. All we're saying; Gaga was robbed.

The Temper Trap in playing lots of festivals this summer non-shocker! They'll be joining an undoubtedly predictably similar line-up at Pinkpop, Hurricane, Wireless, Werchter, Roskilde, Oxygen and T in the Park.

A documentary of 2008/9's 'The Songs of David Byrne and Brian Eno' tour is to be premiered at this year's SXSW. A trailer - and more info - can be viewed here.
