Want to know this year’s “IT” is? So do we.
The Parnelli Board of Advisor announces an important addition to the popular Parnelli Awards. This year, for the first time ever four new products will receive a special Parnelli Award, the “IT Award” in recognition of their contribution to the live event industry.
The nomination process is open to all readers of FOH and PLSN magazines, live event professionals, and live event product manufacturers. The nomination process will start July 15 and end August 31. The Parnelli Board will tabulate the votes and then offer a total of 20 of the top nominees, five each in these four categories: IT Audio, IT Lighting, IT Projection, and IT Staging/Rigging.
Everyone is encouraged to go to parnelliawards.com/nominate and nominate his or her favorite new “Indispensable Technology” product starting on July 15. The ballot of nominees will be featured in our October issues in our many media outlets. The product winner of each category will be chosen just like all other Parnelli winners. Only subscribers of FOH and PLSN magazines are eligible to vote. They must put in their subscription code to vote thus ensuring the integrity of the award. Voting for the final winners will end October 31.
“Every year a dizzying array of great products are put on the market, all designed to help live event professionals do their jobs even better,” says FOH/PLSN publisher and Parnelli Executive Producer Terry Lowe. “Our readers hear about these products first and foremost in our publications, so we wanted to give them the opportunity to tell us of all the products that came out in the past year, which are truly ‘Indispensable Technology.”
Winners will be announced and awards presented at the 2009 Parnelli Awards being held November 20, 2009 in Orlando (in conjunction with LDI).
