20060918_polariswin.jpgOriginality plus mega talent equals Owen Pallett (aka Final Fantasy). At the Phoenix Concert Theatre earlier tonight, Owen walked away with the Polaris Music Prize and a cheque for a cool $20,000. Here he gets a congratulatory hug by award show host Jian Ghomeshi.

In other news, it was announced that Rogers would pick up Wolf Parade's bar tab at the event.
