The Adam Clayton Fender video was pretty cool too.

I love Elevation/Vertigo/Miracle/American Soul. I like Boots.

I wasn't much of a fan of most Boy, or Oct except for IWF, OOC, ITAB, and ? Gloria Those I thought were fantastic. I was waiting to catch them live but had to give up a concert Tix in '83. Didn't see them until Radio City Music Hall.
Loved War. JT and AB were very different and both superb.
Also think NLOTH, and SOE are superb. So glad I got to see those live, as well as every tour since '84 except POP.
The Blackout us an astonishing song.

Breathe is quite wonderful different sounding, and I do love Red Flag definitely captured an earlier sound.

While I know about the Vegas gig I didn't know about SOS. It been a challenging 13 months for me.
Will have to catch that on YT (SOS) I don't know if my CD player works anymore (I had to move).

It'll be interesting yo see what they do on this SOS. Plus what ever might still be next.

We need Beach Clips!

Neil McCormick doesn’t believe a NEW U2 album will be released until 2025. Realistically they won’t start working on it seriously until after Vegas, sometime in 2024. So late 2024/early 2025, with a tour beginning in 2025 is the best case scenario, I think.

Ugh, I wish I could go to one of these Vegas shows!!

DeVaul · 04-04-2023, 03:53 PM

2026 it is

jay canseco · 04-04-2023, 06:26 PM

Fuck them. What about the fans? We will all be in nursing homes by the time this album comes out.

neil is obviously knowledgeable, but neil is not the bible.

it is just a guess. an educated guess - but a guess none the less.

Why not just release music and tour when you're ready? Not every album has to be paired with a monster tour. If it's an album that truly fits a huge multi year world stage, sure. But I feel like the band would get on better if they made music, released it with some small promo shows, and no pressure to pause their personal lives for so long

Especially as others have posted above, they ain't getting younger

DeVaul · 04-05-2023, 11:27 AM

Every album is an event for them.

Conversely they could just tour without a new album because in 2024 it’ll be 6 years since the last in the States and Europe, and people would line up for a hits tour with open wallets. Automatic stadium run

This is absolutely what they should be doing at this point of their career.

They should take a page from the Rolling Stones book. Since 2012, they have just focused on one region per year (NA, Europe, Australiasia, etc). They typically do 20 or less shows per year. U2 should adopt this method, and then just release albums or EPs whenever they feel like it. It would take the pressure off them in a lot of ways, and would probably result in us getting more music released overall.

**Headache in a Suitcase** · 04-05-2023, 07:21 PM

But then people on interference would accuse them of being a dinosaur act

DeVaul · 04-05-2023, 08:04 PM

It makes too much sense, so they’d never do it. Maybe Azoff can talk some sense into them but nahhh

**Headache in a Suitcase** · 04-06-2023, 08:33 AM

but we'd all just be morally corrupt rubes if we went and saw them.

that's it - i'm going to stop posting now. i can't deal with you bootlickers
