U2 May Retire After Next Album/Tour.
U2 Manager Paul McGuinness is now championing a new Irish band.
McGuinness was spotted at the Dublin combo's gig in the capital's Village last tuesday (feburary 10th).
U2 are due to release a new album later this year, but reports in Britain say that they may call it a day after it's release.
If the rumours are indeed true, no doubt this will be a huge shock to the countless U2 fans all over the world.
Meanwhile, McGuinness is set to be kept extra busy with his new outfit 'Rapture'.
The story broke in last weekend's Sunday World...a fairly reliable source.
To be perfectly honest, I really have a gut instinct that after the next 'one', so to speak...the guys will call it a day as a group and concentrate on different projects.
I can't visualise U2 rocking on into their 50's and 60's, it just doesn't seem like them, they've achieved everything and Bono always wanted to 'finish' with the record he and the rest of the band always dreamt of making.
So much work and time has gone into this new album and that's why I sincerely believe that it's going to be their swansong. I do hope that I'm proven wrong and honestly, I'll be quite upset if they do declare their stepping down, sometime in the not to distant future.
One can't but help face that awful truth that someone may know something we don't in relation to this story. What if it's true???
