I think most of what's been said is just extra fuss and we really just have to wait...but I guess the reason people got excited this time is that it's not Bono saying it's their best, it's Lanois and Lillywhite

That's pretty normal, a producer would never state that the album he's working on is the same stuff he did the last times.
Oh, and actually it's Tony Fanton saying that Lillywhite said that...
I'm pretty sceptical about the new album. U2 did release nothing really relevant to me in the last 10 years, so my expectations are low.
But then again I expected nothing from the new Coldplay album...

U2's legendary producer, Steve Lillywhite, claims the band's eagerly-
awaited new album will be their BEST ever. He has worked with the
band since their first album, Boy, was released in 1981, and now he
is back in the studio with them as they put the finishing touches to
their latest album prior to its October release.
Veteran DJ Tony Fenton said he met Steve and was struck by how the
told how the famous producer was ranting about the new album. Tony
said: "I met Steve recently and we got talking about the band's new
album. He is so excited about the record and claims it's the best
record they have ever done.
"I know people think he might say that - but that's not the kind of
thing somebody like Steve Lillywhite says easily. Like the rest of
people who love music I'm so looking forward to it."
U2 even missed the recent Nelson Mandela Tribute Concert in London
because they were so caught up in putting the final touches to the
album at their Hanover Quay Studios in Dublin's Docklands.
The group recorded initially recorded a lot of new material in
Morocco - but then scrapped a lot of it and started again because
they didn't think it was up to their high standards.
A source said: "U2 have never put out a dud record and they don't
want to start now. In fact it's got to the stage with them that they
want to put out a classic but still make it fresh and new. They know
they are coming very close but they still have a bit of work to do
yet."
The album is the first studio work the band will released since their
smash hit How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb in 2004.

Yep, the Popmart shows in Germany and a handful of Elevation and Vertigo in Germany and France.
Although Popmart was 11 years ago, hope that counts anyway.

after seeing those tours, the songs didn't seem relevant?

What hell would he think be relevant then?? That person "yeah" is a very very demanding person.
More irritating than an insect.
