London based dance act Dirty Vegas have been talking about winning the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. They told reporters they almost missed their moment, when they didn't hear their name being called out - "it wasn't until our management patted us on the back going 'go on up boys, you're up' we realised we’d won! Our record company was just on the phone to us and they're saying 'how do you feel about winning a grammy?' How do you think we feel? You know, six months ago we never even dreamed of being here. Ah, tonight – I’m not going to bed, I am NOT going to bed!"
Highlight of the night? "The best thing for me was Avril Lavigne, she just patted me on the arm and said - 'Well Done Paul' … I’m not going to wash this top"!
The trio will be performing their first post-award gig at Cream night Nation in Liverpool on 8 Mar. They will play a live set alongside Jon Carter, K-Klass and Nic Fanciulli. Press info from Gill at Cream on 020 7299 0978.
