One last Hubbies hit for 2011 . . .

I know, I know, it has only been a little more than a month since the last Hubbie Awards. But I have seen some pretty good shows since then!  And I felt it was conceptually cleaner to wrap up the 2011 Hubbies for individual performances, etc., before I move on to my "Best of 2011" blow-out later this week - just so I don't miss anybody (although I always do).

And so, with a virtual drum roll . . .
