The MOJO awards took place last night. You know, the ones on behalf of the music magazine, MOJO. The ceremony happened at some place swankier than you and I are used to frequenting and we thought you might like to know the winners. If you don't, then look away now. There's still time. Not sure if they'll be on TV or anything like. Some good ones in there, too.
