Stage Crews vote U2’s Tour Best of the Year

altU2's 360 Degree tour, with its groundbreaking "claw" stage, was named live production of the year at the Total Production International (TPI) Awards.

The ceremony rewards roadies, riggers, truckers and other behind-the-scenes workers.  

 

TPI magazine editor-in-chief Mark Cunningham said the Irish band's tour had "made the biggest noise" of the last 12 months in more ways than one.

"It's a fantastic achievement and the four members of U2 are effectively the icing on the cake. It is a massive engineering feat - from scenery to video to audio, with the biggest PA system that has ever been seen on a tour.”
