Rubberbandits up for IFTA award for video of 'Horse Outside' hit.

The video, the biggest internet hit this country has ever seen, currently has just under 6 million hits on You Tube, but a spokesperson for the 'Bandits said they hadn't campaigned for votes for the IFTA award due to the presence of a tribute to the late Mick Lally also on the shortlist, who they called "one the finest Irish actors of the last 40 years".<br/><br/>The duo are currently on tour around Ireland with sold out shows in Belfast and Dublin's Tripod, and are set to go on a US tour "in the first half of 2011".<br/><br/>The 'Bandits are also set to release a brand new single and video at the end of February, but with shooting set to wrap up this weekend, the duo were remaining tight-lipped about which song would be released. <br/><br/>A new website is being launched this weekend, while previous internet hit 'Bag of Glue' also hit a million views on You Tube this week. <br/><br/>The duo return to Dolan's Warehouse on March 4.
