CHAPLIN STRUGGLES TO STAY SOBER AT Q AWARDS

KEANE frontman TOM CHAPLIN found the Q Music Awards a challenge on Monday (30OCT06) - because he was surrounded by free alcohol just weeks after leaving rehab.

Tom Chaplin of Keane at The 2006 Q Awards held at Grosvenor House. London, England - 30.10.06

The SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW singer was treated for alcohol and cocaine dependency at top London rehab clinic The Priory before his discharge last month (OCT06).

Now optimistic about a future without drink and drugs, Chaplin admitted it was difficult being surrounded by drunk rockers at the London awards ceremony.

He says, "I'm feeling much better. It is hard to come to events like this where there's wall-to-wall booze, but I'm doing OK."

At the event, OASIS rocker NOEL GALLAGHER slammed Chaplin and his fellow rehab patient PETE DOHERTY as "little idiots" for seeking treatment for their addictions, saying, "They have one little line (of cocaine) and they're all in rehab."

However, Chaplin fires back, "I'm a massive fan of Oasis and he's entitled to his own opinion. But frankly, I am not bothered."
