U23D

Jane and I went to the new U2 movie last night. Bogey just wanted to wear the 3D glasses when we got home and act all Bono-like. That's kinda how he is.

This was an awesome show. I mean, I've been a U2 fan since before they were an "acceptable" Christian band. I bought their albums before *I* was even a Christian. I've always liked their music. But seeing them in concert in 3D is just wild. And it's basically just them playing their songs. Very minimal crowd interaction or agendized rants. I was actually hoping there would be more. But it was good. It only lasts 1 hr. 20 minutes. And there were only 10 of us in the theater. I did have one complaint though - and I don't know if it's the movie or this particular theater - but the music wasn't near loud enough. I mean, if they're going to make it look like you're at a concert (which they do), it would be nice to make it feel like you're at a concert. I want to feel it in my chest, you know.

Anyway, I don't know if they can do the 3D thing on dvd or not, so I highly recommend seeing the movie (even though it was like $10.50 a ticket). And if you like U2, don't leave when the credits start rolling, because they do "Yahweh" as a closer. All told, it's almost as cool as a dog who wears sunglasses.
