I'm very happy to own this as Motorhead industry awards are very rare as I'm sure you all know.



It was commissioned by Sanctuary but it also says "Presented to Sanctuary Records Group" on the plaque. Did they commisson an award and then give it to themselves? That's like a rich people version of buying your own "World's Best Dad" coffee mug.

That's what In-House awards are, commissioned by the label to be presented to themselves.

However they can only do that if the award has been certified by the BPI, they can't do it for any album or any band they choose so they have earned it in that respect.

I did not think you were being a twat mate, actually I thought it was a valid point as it does seem arrogant to commission and award presented to yourself or your own label!!
