They call them the Shockwaves NME Awards - us sad old timers like to still refer to them as the Brats. Either way, voting has opened for the NME's annual reader-voted awards at http://www.nme.com, so get voting. Presumably you will all be voting for www.cmumusicnetwork.co.uk for best website (what do you mean you were thinking of iTunes?)- though wouldn't it be fun if everyone voted for www.kerrang.com?
