Mr. Brau, I'm going to have to lean with you on this one.
The band looks a little at sales as an indicator of how much people are interested in them. I know the real fans will always buy the new stuff, but I really think the band would get bored if they realized that their music is becoming irrelevant.
That said, they seem excited about this one, but if it does bomb by U2 standards, they'll probably give it just one more shot, and if they're still slipping I think they'll just sort of retire (maybe just a movie sound track once in a while). They want to leave the scene without slipping too far.
