U2.Com takes a video tour with Rocko Reedy of the Vertigo '05 tour production.

Rocko Reedy, U2's Stage Manager, took a break from setting up the show recently and invited the U2.Com camera team on a tour of the stage to see how the productionis put together at each venue.

Rocko Reedy explains how the show is built - stage by stage, hour by hour.
