Green Day have scooped the Best Video award at last night's Shockwaves NME Awards 2005.
The punk trio came out on top from a shortlist also featuring Franz Ferdinand, Beastie Boys, Eminem and The Streets. A video message from the band saw Billie Joe Armstrong getting excited about the MTV2-associated prize: "Thanks a lot for this prestigious award", he said, "it's the best statue I've ever seen!"
Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand claimed two gongs at the event, which was held at London's Hammersmith Palais. The band have walked away with Best Album award for their self-titled debut album and Best Track for Take Me Out.
