There was a private dinner ceremony on Saturday night where the bulk of the awards were handed out.  Feist pretty much took the big awards &#8211; Artist of the year and Song writer of the year. <\/p>\n<p>Other than seeing her perform her song <em>1234<\/em> for the itunes\/ ipod commercial on TV I&#8217;ve never really seen Feist perform.   <\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t say that anymore!  She performed at the Juno&#8217;s and totally blew me away.  In some ways she reminded me a little bit of Bjork but with a much more mainstream sound.   I&#8217;d love to go to one of her concerts.  I&#8217;m sure she&#8217;d be a performer worth seeing. <\/p>\n<p>Avril Lavigne also performed at the Junos.  She sang Girlfriend. Her backup dancers where sturdy looking girls.  It a way it was nice to see more &#8220;every woman&#8221; type dancers highlighted in an area where usually only the thin and skeletal get to play. <\/p>\n<p>Other big winners at the Juno&#8217;s were Finger Eleven for Rock Album of the Year &#8211; Them Vs. You Vs. Me.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the list of Saturday Nights winners.
