History of the NME Awards Tour
OK, so they weren't the headliners, but really the 2006 tour belonged to Arctic Monkeys. Between us booking them and these dates actually happening, the Sheffield mob scored a UK Number One single with 'I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor', and every date on this tour was a euphoric celebration of the band's ramraiding of the mainstream on their own terms.
