| "No More TV Shows" say Arctic Monkeys | ||
| Arctic Monkeys continued their television protest by finally announcing they will not appear on any more TV shows. The band say they will continue to appear on live shows, though pre-recorded interviews and such like are out of the question. 'Monkeys drummer Matt Helders said "The TV interviews we did were abysmal. We just don't want to do it. We don't think we should have to do that stuff just because we're in a band. "You can't win - either you're a knobhead for not doing stuff, or you bore people if they see your face everyday." The band's lead singer Alex Turner added "And then there's the politics. You can't do one TV show without doing the other." |

| Arctic Monkeys Team Up With Tourmates | ||
 Last night saw the 2006 NME Awards Tour come to a sensational end, as members of Mystery Jets, We Are Scientists and Arctic Monkeys join forces to play some cracking renditions at London's Brixton Academy.The teamwork started when Mystery Jets were joined by members of We Are Scientists during their set which started the sold-out Brixton crowd off. The second helping was Arctic Monkeys front man Alex Turner playing lead guitar for We Are Scientists during their track "Cash Cow", only to have the favour returned by We Are Scientists' singer Keith Murray, during "Fake Tales of San Francisco". If the fans had thought they'd seen it all then they were far from wrong. During the Arctic Monkeys final track of their 50 minute set "A Certain Romance", they were joined by members of both other bands, resulting in nine people on stage. All of this and Maximo park hadn't even been on yet! Apparently cameras were present at the show, along with BBC Radio 1 DJ and MTV presenter Zane Lowe, so rumour has it that the show could be shown on MTV2 in March. |
