Laser jacket worn by Bono of U2 - Laser Pointer Forums

liverlover · 07-30-2009, 12:26 AM

I've sen laser harps, laser sabres, laser gloves, and now a laser jacket made specially for Bono of U2, now touring. I wonder what the MPE of his jacket is rated at and do his band members have to wear protective eyewear when he's prancing about on stage.

Ha! Seen it, I think it was posted here. It's really cool though I don't know if it's very safe for the viewers

I don't think they had protective eyewear, most people don't see lasers as something "really dangerous", they just see "pretty lights".

I am sorry but they may have chosen, I don't know, say, ultra violet, that would have been way cooler, red is just boring, I don't care when I see it anymore, it bores me. Now violet makes everyone go zomg wtf. Red is like, ok, lasers.... cool, seen it before. Neat jacket and concept but green or especially violet would be better.

I agree with your choice of color. Maybe a band like Kiss could pull off something like 3 laser jackets, all different colors RGB. Next thing will be laser projectors built into the clothes, for living billboards.

The song is called "Ultra Violet; Light My Way" but they use RED lasers?!?

I think that they should consult with Rog

Peace,

..finally a use for some dozen of those small brass aixiz modules i have collecting dust! :-)
well, i would have used a few high-power line-generating lasers instead, but any laser is better than no laser, wont complain!
with such low prices for laserequipment, i wonder why they are used that little, especially on stage..
