IBMA 2010 - Awards Show

Last night's IBMA Awards Show presented a compelling and satisfying selection of winners and musical performances.  I'll just post pictures without commentary.  There are a few pictures I missed because of the conditions, but I've tried to cover the ground pretty carefully.  I'll have commentary about the nature of awards and the process at some later time.  Meanwhile, just enjoy the show.
