If you don't like U2, that is fine, just ignore this thread. I know there's a few of you that may enjoy it though.
So, as some of you already know, I'm a bit of an obsessed U2 fan.I have been for the past 14 years. I've seen them in concert several times, and I've been right up close at those concerts which was amazing. I've never been able to be at the right place at the right time to meet them before/after a concert though. I've known about the U2 3D movie for a while, but only recently found out that it was premiering at the Sundance film festival here in Utah.
The tickets were of course sold out, and the ones on ebay were going for hundreds. But they do have a waiting list so we decided to head up there (hour drive) on the slim chance that we could get in. We got up there around 3:30, there's so many people in the city right now that parking downtown is nearly impossible, so we ended up having to park at Deer Valley (ski resort) and take the shuttles down. This should normally take maybe 20 minutes...we didn't get down to the theather until 6:00.
This is at Deer Valley, we wandered around for a bit and watched all the skiers. I live so close to some of the best ski resorts and I've never been skiing.
In the shuttle bus...we were bored so we took some pics
The way the line was run was completely messed up. While we were waiting we were interviewed by some guy, I wish I knew what it was for...he looked familiar but I'm not sure who he was. They made those waiting for the U2 3D movie wait outside in the freezing cold while the others for the movie before stood inside the heated tent. Those who didn't get into that movie were put ahead of us to get into the U2 movie! We were originally maybe 30-40th in line and we ended up being 79 and 80. They gave us numbers and said we could leave and come back to line up before the movie.
So we wandered around taking pictures.
And climbed snow drifts.
