As you're probably aware, the International BG Music Association (IBMA) held their annual Awards Show last night. While I didn't get to attend the ceremony this year (held at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry House), nor did I get to hear the live broadcast on XM Satellite Radio, the folks who run the Bluegrass Blog posted all the award winners on their site as the ceremony was going on.
