Prince wins 6 Minnesota Music Awards In a blurb that isn't online the Pioneer Press said Prince did not show up to the awards, but here is a list of all the winners from twincities.com
Given that 2004 has already seen Prince's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a return to the Billboard charts and a hit tour, it's not too surprising that Prince swept the Minnesota Music Awards, held Wednesday night in St. Cloud. The Purple One took home the prize in six categories, including Artist and Song of the Year.

I've always loved this band's name, and I always see it listed in the back of City Pages when you look for what bands are playing. I want to go see them just for their name alone. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Do people at the awards groan when he gets another Minnesota Music Award, or do they still feel proud for the little champ? | |

Hookers and Blow was the ficticious name for the Maxxim Magazine house band. Cool name though  Love and lust, they both have 4 letters... | |

perhaps more importantly, do each of these awards count toward an album sale for "musicology"? | |

I think they need to add a few more categories to their awards  When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |

Minnesota tourism propaganda. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Boy, I never thought he was gonna beat Ol' Yeller, but there you go, he edged him out. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith. If we crave some cosmic purpose, then let us find ourselves a worthy goal" - Carl Sagan | |
