- Early Years
2011
Hosted by 'Shooting Stars' character Angelos Epithemiou, the awards were pretty rock-tastic with the Foo Fighters playing a two hour live set, after winning the Godlike Genius Award (Dave Grohl began his speech with the LOL-tastic opener: "You guys realise you gave this to a drummer, right?"). My Chemical Romance ran off with a couple of trophies (not for 'Best Hair Dye' though), Biffy Clyro picked one up and Muse nabbed their ninth (yes ninth).
