A tiny bit of advice, don't do it in public unless you can sprint faster than the rozers or the desperate fat slags. Bonus points if you don't drop your chips or your rhythm whilst running.

The Mercury Music Prize will, however, still be wank.

Very good Philly. I wonder where I've seen a quote like that before :wink:
