Neil Young and Nickelback were among the early Juno winners, each snagging two trophies yesterday at a private industry dinner.
Alberta rockers Nickelback, who spent the afternoon signing autographs for thousands of frenzied fans at an event at Pier 21, were named group of the year.
As expected, superstars Coldplay and Black Eyed Peas - who are scheduled to play during tonight's broadcast (7 p.m., CTV, Cable 2) - won awards. They tied for best international album.
