00:00important to have such a big celebration of music British music up north it's the
00:06first one up north isn't it first ever first ever the next two years are going
00:11to be up north aren't they yeah I mean Manchester's now as you know is such a
00:15place for media look we've got media city there now you know people who are
00:20trained in like camera work and that were never trained in areas like that
00:24so it's such a massive thing for the country so it doesn't surprise me at all
00:28the Brits are there in fact it should have been there five years ago probably
00:31just because it's it's not just about London the music industry in fact
00:36prop London's probably down the list you know so much regional talent look back
00:41in history and see where bands and artists have come from all over the
00:46country not just in London I think I think that's one of the benefits of
00:51having an internet based industry now is that you can be anywhere doesn't matter
00:55where you are even as artists working we can be anywhere we can be songwriters
01:01and live anywhere now because the world's a smaller place
