On the bright side, Siouxsie won the Mojo Icon Award.

Siouxsie Sioux, elder stateswoman of punk, is named 'Mojo' icon of the year - Belfast Telegraph

Excerpt:

One of the evening's surprises was the punk/new wave band Gang of Four triumphing over the Pixies, Tom Waits, Morrissey and Neil Young in the readers' vote to win the Inspiration award.

Mr Alexander said: "It will surprise a number of people, but the Gang of Four were touring about the time of the vote. History has shown them to be incredibly ahead of their time. Their music has had an impact on bands from REM and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers to The Futureheads. In the last two years, the whole world has gone a bit Gang of Four."
