It's live. On tape.

We know what they mean, but how, NME, can you manage this:

Tonight’s (February 12) leg of Shockwaves NME Awards Tour in Nottingham will be recorded and broadcast live on Rob Da Bank’s Radio 1 show.

Recorded to be broadcast live at another date? I know NME's stablemate New Scientist predicted that time travel was going to happen this year, but who knew it would arrive so soon?

Still, it does mean tracks from Ting Tings and Does It Offend You, Yeah? on Radio One this coming Sunday. Unfortunately, also Joe Lean And The Jing Jang Jong Ying Tong Yiddle Aye Yo, but you can fast forward through on listen again.
