Hell is…

…sitting in a cinema wearing funny glasses watching a U2 gig in 3D for 85 minutes. I’ll never get that time back you know.

    That sounds DESPERATE.

    If that’s the Dundrum screening I was there. Trying to prop my eyes open by marvelling at just how tiny Bono really is and wondering if they were orthopaedic shoes he was wearing.

  3. Sinead Says:

    Katherine, if you’re a fan you’d love it. If you’re not, it’s painful.

    Didfor, I did notice the shoes. Funny that. Their whole set up is so massive though, that anyone looks a bit on the wee side.

    I’m really looking forward to seeing “The Orphanage” during the Festival.
    Definitely the most anticipated one for me, although U2 3D is a close second.

  5. Chancer Says:

    When’s Phil Collins3D coming out?

  6. Sinead Says:

    Pedro, I’ve just had to pick myself up off the floor on discovering you’re a U2 fan. Never saw that one coming…

    Chancer, I’d love to see Kiss 3D or Motley Crue 3D. Big hair jumping out of the screen at you. Imagine Gene Simmons tongue? Yikes.

  7. Pedro Says:

    I think I would have more fun bursting my own ear-drums than listening to Bono’s whiney vocals.

    Oh God, that sounds horrendous. My deepest sympathies.

    For the love of crimeny…why, girl, why?
    (OK, I know it’s for professional reasons, but still)

    Sitting in a cinema wearing funny glasses, watching Bono on the screen wearing funny glasses.

    Sounds delightful…
    Does this mean when they tour the new album it’ll be in 3d too?? I don’t think I could tae Bono being in my face for two hours..
    :o

    Hell is wearing funny glasses and being in U2.

    You *really* should have known better, Sinead :)

    I didn’t know that you were a glutton for punishment, Sinead.
    Sounds painful.

  15. Quint Says:

    Hell is watching U2 in 3D? Why did you go then? I’m sure no one forced you to go.

  16. Sinead Says:

    Medbh and Quint. I HAD to go, it was for an upcoming review. It’s a panel, and that’s one of the things up for discussion, alas.

  17. Quint Says:

    Fair Nuff! I have a very complex love/hate relationship with U2..love that the world’s biggest rock band come from this tiny island of 4 million people…utterly detest all the music they’ve come up with since ‘Achtung Baby’…they make me proud to be Irish but Bono infuriates me…as I said-complex! But really looking forward to seeing U2 3D, more for the visual technology on display rather than seeing U2, to be honest.
