The 'Best Live Act' nod was accompanied by a live performance of Waiting for the End at the Award ceremonies. The award was accepted by the band who not only thanked their entire production crew, which includes award-winning FOH & monitor engineers 'Pooch' Van Druten and 'Tater' McCarthy, but also invited the crew to join them on stage to accept the award.
