    End of the line?

    The 12yr LN deal means 2, 3 tours given U2's notoriously long between album/tour hiatuses and it may be that this leg and next year are viewed as separate 'tours' within that deal... so by Dec 2010 you have 2 down, [3, 4 years off] and 1 to go... I think this is the last tour on this scale...
