The Stool Pigeon wins an award
Yup, we were voted 'Free Music Magazine of The Year' at last night's ROTD Awards. Second time we've won this. Thanks to those who voted, and to the good people at Record Of The Day.
Big ups to the extended massive! And by that I mean... The Quietus, who work in the same building as us and whose two editors (John Doran and Luke Tuner) are major contributors to The Pigeon. They rightly took the best website gong. John from The Quietus also won best live reviewer, and Kev Kharas, who wrote this issue's xx cover story, won best blog for his and his pals' No Pain In Pop site. Kev's Omar Souleyman piece for The Stool Pigeon was also shortlisted for best feature. And so indeed it should have been.
All in all, an excellent night for the Maury Road powerhouse of independent music journalism and publishing. We're chuffed. And our corner of the room definitely heckled the best.
Best heckle of the night goes to Pigeon Mickey...
Miranda Sawyer, while giving a (highly deserved) prize to music snapper Kevin Cummins: "You should all go and buy his book."
Pigeon Mickey: "I bet you didn't buy your bloody copy!"
Good on you, Mickey.
