U2 win live production award

U2’s live production has been voted the best stage show of 2009 in the Total Production International Awards.

The revolutionary design sees the band perform below a massive claw. The magazine’s editor-in-chief, Mark Cunningham, heaped praise on the design.

"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.

"It's a fantastic achievement and the four members of U2 are effectively the icing on the cake."

U2 will headline Glastonbury's 40th anniversary this year.
