I listened to the Radio 1 interview and Bono said no new tour for at least 2 years, I don;'t know if that means same time frame for the album too but there were some interesting things said.
He said U218 was released as an end to the style of the previous 2 albums which I guess would mean windows was also included in that style. He said they were going in a totally new direction.
When ask by the interviewer if they were still going to be a rock band Bono said "We are going to be a band, But the Rock might have to go or it might get harder".
He went on to talk about how he wants to get into Acustic, simple music and how Rick Rubin is a good choice for that.
So now the big question is if the Rock goes what are they going to be going with? Folk? Add more Piano and sound like Coldplay? Or maybe invent something not heard before?
I don't know its a big mystery now but it sounds interesting anyway.
