So they’ve posted that they will make an announcement to the world live from the stage in Japan. Any thoughts? Seems pretty big for new song or dvd. Retirement or something new? Reckon it’s 50/50.
Don't see how it can be anything related to new music. We'd know about that. This band doesn't make an album (or EP) in secret.
You don't announce a DVD / Blu Ray release during a concert.
Aside from retirement (either touring or all together), realistically what else could it be?
Achtung Baby 30th anniversary tour in 2021?
If I had to bet on something, it'd be announcement of them working on new music. Sure, there's allegedly been demos and miscellaneous comments on the band working on new material, but I don't think there'd actually be anything ready to go or be comfortable making a release date.
I don't think a general "we're working on new material" statement would constitute "news" worthy of an announcement though.

My money is on something like "Japanese photo exhibit soundtracked by U2 music".
