Don Henley plays Dublin's 3Arena this weekend in what is sure to be a special gig.

However, it seems that the Eagles man is going to great lengths to enforce a ban on technology at the gig, as promoters have issued a notice asking people not only to avoid filming any part of the concert, but to avoid using their phone altogether. That includes texting and phone calls.

See below for the official notice.

While we admire an artist taking a stand against the scourge of mobile phones at live gigs, it'll be interesting to see how staff at the 3Arena will enforce people texting.
