| (EZ-Tracks) - The U2 3-D concert film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this weekend and who but the members of the legendary rock band themselves should stand on line with other fans to see it. The concert was "U2 3D," a film of the band's 2005-06 Vertigo tour, shot at several shows in South America with new 3-D technology. “I was really hoping we weren't crap after all these years. Luckily we weren't," guitarist The Edge told The Associated Press before the band put on plastic glasses to watch the movie's premiere at the annual indie film love fest held in Park City, Utah. The Edge, joined by singer Bono, drummer Larry Mullen and bassist Adam Clayton joked about seeing themselves perform in 3-D. It's kind of horrific," said Bono. "It's bad enough on a small screen. Now you get to see the lard arse 40-foot tall." Bono also said that he hoped that the film would allow more people to experience U2’s music, especially teenagers and college students who might not be able to afford the expensive tickets to their sold-out shows. He said that U2 is working with longtime producers Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno on a new album that will blend Lanois' respect for traditional music and Eno's futuristic sound. | ||||||||||||
