Our very own mistress of Bloggie-nominee TexasGigs.com, Cindy Chaffin, informs us that Texas has spoken for 2003:

2003 Rockzillaworld Music Awards

OK. This is Tuesday night. The awards show was Sunday night. I’m just now getting around to posting the winners. That tell you anything?

It is virtually impossible to screw up a show when you’ve got Jack Ingram, Cooder Graw, Mark David Manders, Max Stalling, Tommy Alverson, Brian Burns, The Domino Kings, Macon Greyson, Owen Temple, John Evans, Jesse Dayton, Rodney Pyeatt, and Doug Burr & the Lonelies in the room, but I damn near managed to. I’ll get around to the details later, along with photos, but here are the winners and finalists in this year’s awards, in order:
