Tomorrow's NYT (available online now):
2 tidbits of note:
-New album soon (know this has been mentioned previously, but NYT seems pretty reliable)
-Roundabout stage confirmation

As the Brit Awards rehearsal started, U2 used its sound check to play Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” in full blare, like a classic-rock cover band. “Weddings, funerals, bar mitzvahs,” Bono announced afterward. “We’re available for work. U2.”

It'll be interesting to see how they implement the round stage. They might have a "Super Bowl halftime" type of stage in the center, and I wouldn't be surprised if it rotates between songs to give everyone a decent view.
