Catch A Sneak Peek Of U2/ Green Day 'Saints' Video
By James Montgomery
Last month, as Green Day and U2 took the stage at the Louisiana Superdome, they were not only being watched by millions in the city of New Orleans and around the world, but by director Chris Milk and his small army of cameras too.
For weeks, Milk followed the two bands' every move from their initial meeting at London's Abbey Road Studio, where they recorded their version of "The Saints Are Coming," a single that benefits Music Rising (see "Green Day, U2 Take Historic Collabo One Step Further By Re-Enacting Beatles' Abbey Road LP Cover"). Milk then followed their somber tour of New Orleans' still-ravaged Ninth Ward and onto the stage at the Superdome, where they blasted through a chill-inducing version of "Saints" (see "U2 Keeping Up Charitable Momentum Following Superdome Set").
And now he's in the final stages of compiling all that footage into the master version of the "Saints" video, a task that is proving to be quite the undertaking.
