"Locked" Ultegra brakes

Yesterday, I installed new rubber pads on my rear brakes, I took the shoes out and apart to do this, nice and easy until I tried to put them back on. The whole "horse shoe" shape brake locked, so to speak. I tried
to unscrew the whole thing, loosen them up, but clamped itself in real tight, and it won't budge. Both shoes are pressing with tremendous against the wheel rim.
What gives? How do I get them loose to adjust the whole brake?
thanks,
Corsaire
