2 - bNET NZ MUSIC AWARDS
The excitement at the 2007 bNet Awards was skyrocketing last Friday night. Radio One was there, at the grandiose Hopetoun Alpha in Auckland and so were all the bNet stars. There were kick-ass performances by the Phoenix Foundation, Pig Out, Surf City and the recently-reformed Garageland, if happiness was a drug there would be no need to snort it that night. The illustrious honour of the bNet Radio One Song of the Year award was bestowed on David Kilgour for his track 'BBC World'. Die! Die! Die! demonstrated wide-spread love by winning the bNet Rock Track of 2007 for '155' – another win for Dunedin. Yuss.
And it was Liam Finn who took out the awards in style; winning the bNet Pop Track of 2007, the bNet Song of the Year, the bNet Artist of the Year, and the bNet Album of the Year. Hopefully now his beard will be satisfied with his success and let him be.
For a full list of all the winners head along to www.bnet.co.nz

On the show tomorrow (Friday) marine biology takes centre stage on When I Grow Up ..., now proven to be 45% more effective vocation training than playing Xbox all morning. Next week on Breakfast, Monty Python funnyman turned perpetual traveler Michael Palin joins us while, ironically, touring to promote his new latest book New Europe. Also, veteran Australian journalist Tracee Hutchison (from the incredible 3RRR.FM in Melbourne, and also a weekly columnist for the Melbourne Age) will be back to talk about the aftermath from Australia's federal government elections, Renee Jones brings her monthly roundup of indie success from the Independent Music New Zealand offices, and Sub Pop's founding father Jonathon Poneman talks about taking over the New Zealand pop and folk comedy scenes. Plus plenty of damn fine music and Mandroid's Tin Foil Hat. Sweet.

Paris will tell us about 70s Australian punks The Saints and their debut 1977 album (I'm) Stranded and why they are hugely influential and why they aren't famous and why this album still sounds f**king great. (Paris is excited).
