Glam rock sensations The Darkness have been named best British group and rock act at the 2004 Brit Awards.
Frontman Justin Hawkins said: “It’s a real privilege, a tremedous honour and a real achievement… I have to say we probably are the best British group.”
The glam rock act won the first two of their four nominations, while Dido, Dizzee Rascal, Daniel Bedingfield and Busted follow with three each.
Rock and R&B take pride of place, with Beyonce Knowles and OutKast teaming up on stage at the ceremony which is under way at Earl’s Court, London.[more @ www.news.bbc.co.uk]
