Billboard Live Music Awards Kiss and 3 Doors Down. While recorded music has an established awards structure headed by the Grammy Awards and also featuring the American Music Awards and the MTV Video Music Awards, live performance music has not had the same. The "Billboard" Touring Awards are an attempt to fill that gap. "Billboard" previously attempted to enter the awards arena for recorded music with the charts-based "Billboard" Music Award, which lasted from 1990 through 2006, returning in 2011. Those awards featured two slots for Concert Venue Award and Touring Venue Award, but were not otherwise live-performance-based. Award names and awards given themselves
