Kaiser Chiefs are apparently a bit sad after they failed to win the Rock Band Of The Year award at the Independent Leeds Music Awards, losing out to Forward Russia! (that clearly ought to have one of those upside down exclamation marks in front of it, but I'm afraid I just can't make it happen, not in a simple text email).
According to The Star, Chief Kaiser Ricky Wilson said "We were gutted at being snubbed for Rock Band Of The Year at the Leeds Music Awards. Nick and Peanut turned up thinking we were a dead cert to win and then it bloody went to Forward Russia! They left quickly after that and tried not to catch anyone's eye. We thought, 'Come on, we opened Live 8 in America'."
He continued: "I don't hold grudges and have nothing against the people of Leeds but we did really well last year and a pat on the back would have been nice."
Well, you see, that's what happens when you do really well, really quickly.
