Zoocoustic
War Child
I know, this question has been brought up before, but I was thinking...
Obviously, I'm speculating on a lot of dates here, but IF the new album does come out in early 2004, the tour would likely start late spring/early summer of that year. IF the album and tour are successful, it may last up to two years from start to finish (ZooTV did with about a 6 month break to record Zooropa). IF the tour did last that long, it would be over in mid 2006. At that point, members of the band are 45-46 years old.
So then they go away for 2-3 years (as they have been doing for the last decade or so) and by that time it is nearly 2010. Maybe another album comes out at that point, but by then the band is hitting their 50's.
Do they really go out and do another full blown tour at this point? If so, do they become the next Stones, touring late into their lives, to satisfy all us hard core fans? Or do they call it "quits" after this next tour, only to play the occasional special occasion/awards show/other misc. event from this point on?
Obviously, they will do whatever they want. But what do you think will/should happen?
