Part 2 of 5 - Q Awards 2009 - London - Arrivals Video

London: 26 October 2009
A welcome away day from my film festival editing. I am off to the Grosvenor House Hotel where the annual music awards event is happening. It is an early start so I arrive at 0930am and am number seven in the queue. When the barriers were finally erected after 11am, all the front spots got gazumped by members of the professional autograph community who didnt queue as security were not overseeing that aspect. At least I did not have to suffer the crushing as they scream, squabble, scramble and compete for their stuff. I got to stand on my portable stool and with arm outstretched and just managed to capture the stellar crowd as they passed. I was happy to see rock royalty in the form of Led Zeppelins Robert Plant. Others arriving on the red carpet were: Steel Panther, Gary Numan, Kasabian, Marriane Faithfull, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Richard Jones, Suggs and Pixie Lott. I waited to catch a few on the way out too.

As usual please let me know of omissions, errors and comments. Thank you.
