U2 and them dorky ass 3D glasses

Tonight I went to see U2 3D at the Imax and I had a really good time! I was surprised on how much fun I had there and thought it was a fantastic idea to have such an extraordinary band, set, audience, and set list and film it, put it on a huge ass screen like the Imax and then to top it off, give us the opportunity to get dizzy, kinda sick, and really think you were at the concert. I love, love, LOVE concerts and I thought this 'movie' was an excellent way to capture their great sound, message, and the way they put on a show. (The bands I would love to see in this format would be the following: coldplay, radiohead, the white stripes, rage against the machine, the beatles, etc, etc...)

As we walked into the theater I noticed another movie posted for the same kind of movie, although I don't think it was in 3D, but for the Rolling Stones. You know what? If the greatest bands put out a 'movie' like this, I would definitely go see it.

I basically saw U2 in 3D and for only $6! (Student discount). This is the last weekend for the showing here in Austin. See if it's going to a your city or a city near you!

Below is the footage of the show but no 3D effects on this one. Sorry dudes and dudettes.
