Two of the giants of the Awards industry. These events certainly lost their allure once I got sober, but I must admit it was nice to be acknowledged over the years. They were very glitzy occasions still, and as a fan as well, I was certainly in awe of some of the artists there, to say the least. We presented to The at The Brits. The Q Awards was a tribute to Tony Wilson. A reviewer said... Former Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown, who won the Q Legend award, even paid tribute to Peter Hook, the former New Order bass guitarist who was there to present the Q Hero prize posthumously to Factory Records founder Anthony Wilson, for naming his studio Suite 16 in 1986. Wilson, who died in August aged 57 following a battle with cancer, received the biggest standing ovation for his part in creating an enduring Manchester musical legacy. His voice cracking, Hook said: “This is very difficult for me. He always said to me, when you want me I won’t be there but when you need me... I will be. I truly believe that.” Wilson’s award was collected by his children Oliver and Isobel, who said: “We miss him and it’s really nice to know other people do too.” Condition Report There is no condition report for this lot.
