U2 filming at Corner Hotel, Melbourne?????

[Lila64]

thanks for the report BinM Still wondering if my friend is part of the camera crew

 

[aussiedge]

does anyone know if they will b there 2moz?

 

[Bono in Melb]

Could be. I wasn't looking at the camera crew too much. I was more just in a daze really. It was like a dream.

 

[jonnytakeawalk]

Its over.

It was mainly crowd scenes watching them sing and play on the stage and some shots running up and down stairs and if anyone knows the Corner, us extras all standing around in the Beer Garden with Bono singing up there as well.

The sunset was one of the prettiest of all time and they did a shot of Bono and Larry upstairs sing and watching the sunset.

Thats awesome! I am so jealous of you Bono in Melb.


Does anyone know when they're leaving Melb? Someone needs to nick their passports!

 

[U2girl]

Loewenstein? that would really be great - but I bet NOT! has he made somenting with U2 in the last 15 years? Is he still alive?

Given the Angel of Harlem dedication from Melbourne night 1, it looks like he's very much alive and shooting U2 again.

A poster on U2tour.de site posted this:

Shooting Windows

In Melbourne today the band began work on a video for the next single, Window in the Skies and several hundred fans got lucky.

On location with director Gary Koepke, filming took place with 300 fans at The Corner Hotel in Richmond. Many had been at Fridays Make Poverty History concert as well as both Telstra Dome shows... but this was just a little more intimate!

Is this anything to do with the filming of night one in Melbourne? Any ideas what the night one filming was about? I was there, and didn't notice many extra cameras...

here are some informations about the director Gary Koepke - and he seems to be a fan.

"Who is the person you're most interested in meeting?
Bono and Bill Clinton. I guess that's two people."

windows video shoot

hi i was part of the shoot , was awesome !!! No party thrown by U2 THOUGH .

 

[thelaj]

Thoughts:

1) Annoyed U2 is filming a video for WITS which will therefore not be on U218 Videos.

2) Interesting to see they are going for something other than "men in a room playing"

3) Good they are choosing somewhere other than US or Ireland to shoot the video.

 

[U2girl]

1) How do we know they were annoyed?

2) Sounds like another performance video to me.

3) Yes.
