"Dave Grohl is to be named NME&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Godlike Genius&amp;#039; at next month&amp;#039;s Shockwaves NME Awards 2011. The former Nirvana drummer and current Foo Fighters frontman will be given the honour at the O2 Brixton Academy on February 23, as well as play a set with the band. Commenting on the award, Grohl told the magazine: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t think I&amp;#039;m godlike or a genius. It\u00E2\u20AC\u2122s flattering. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a nice thing to be acknowledged for doing something you love to do, but in truth I don&amp;#039;t consider it a body of work because I don&amp;#039;t consider it work.&amp;quot; Previous recipients of the award include New Order, Manic Street Preachers, The Cure, The Clash and Paul Weller.
