Jake Berry, the production director for U2 306 had been joking about how large the crew had gotten so large that it might be a good idea to call them CREW 360. Currently about 250 people have the responsibility to bring the worlds largest tour to life every night. Here is a list of some of the crew. Hey FYI don't expect that you scream out one of the names to get a back stage pass.
Remember we told you earlier how tight security would be for the back stage area. Well nothing has changed. So don't expect it. Just go enjoy the show and leave the load in and out to the pros.
