All of which is a welcome time-saver for Stage Truck, who have just finished the 30-truck MTV Europe Music Awards in Edinburgh, and are about to go on the road with David Bowie, Robbie Williams, Blondie and ex-Depeche Mode star Dave Gahan.
StageAccess.com itself now has over 5,000 members - an increase of 3,000 members in the past three months, demonstrating that this is not only the fastest growing entertainment industry user base but is set to be an invaluable industry resource. The site, created by Lee Charteris, a tour manager with 20 years' experience at the top level, has the backing of Tim Clark and David Enthoven of IE Music, the management company behind Robbie Williams. Core features help both individuals and companies to access contact information via the eBiz Directory (which can be updated by the member), CVs, company profiles and a growing range of other vital information covering companies, people, places, agencies, venues, equipment rentals and much more. The Teams Tool feature provides simultaneous communication, allowing users to contact an entire team instantly via one email and/or SMS message.
