The 23rd annual Pollstar Concert Industry Awards took place Friday night at Club Nokia in Los Angeles, California.
Celebrating all the very best of 2011 from the large numbers of tours and concert productions, the event was crammed with a large number of categories. Unsurprisingly a number of Roger Waters/Pink Floyd related collaborators picked up awards. Whilst he didn't win "Major Tour of the Year" (Lady Gaga was awarded this one), Roger did - quite rightly - win the "Most Creative Stage Production" award, for his incredible tour of The Wall, which from beginning to end stands at 191 shows at time of writing this. Other winners included Clair ("Sound Company of the Year") who are responsible for sound production on Roger's tour. |
Escrito e produzido por Roger Waters, The Wall foi apresentado pela primeira vez ao vivo pelo Pink Floyd em 1980. Originalmente lançado em novembro de 1979 e tocado pela primeira vez ao vivo em 1980, The Wall foi o álbum mais vendido daquele ano e ainda está entre os cincos discos mais vendido de todos os tempos nos EUA, também se tornou filme, dirigido por Alan Parker, com roteiro de Roger Waters,lançado em 1982.

Roger Waters confirms Boston Fenway Park Wall concert
Finally confirmed this afternoon with ticketing information is the July 1st Roger Waters Wall concert at Boston's historic Fenway Park. The venue was one of the places in the US where Roger did initial lighting/projection tests to see whether his idea of playing in baseball stadiums would work.
The RogerWaters.com presales take place from February 13th; a small number of advance tickets will be available to those who have registered their interest in this particular city. General sale tickets will go on sale on February 20th through this link to Ticketmaster.com. The public sale will also see a limited number of VIP packages made available for each show on the tour. For those who've not seen it already, at the end of January 2012 the Boston Herald posted the picture to the left, which preceeded the official announcement from Roger's team today...
