    That's were this tour comes down to the money. It was a cash grab. I really like NLOTH and have enjoyed all the shows I have seen this tour but put it away. It's over get some rest.


    You are correct.I clearly remember Larry sayin after the Pop fiasco, "I will NEVER, do a tour like that again.No Way !! ".I was kinda shocked with the whole "stadium only" tour...they limited themselves on when and where they could play...I hope for a return to arenas,Madison Square Garden please....

    1. I really want a new album too and am very excited to see where U2 is headed.

    2. I was fairly certain that the next tour would be an arena one but you raise a very good point about the ticket prices and people seeing the band. It will be interesting to see how this factors into the next tour. I can't imagine what they could do stagewise after 360, but then again people thought the same after ZooTV and PopMart.
  3. I think they should retire for now.

    We must accept it: Bono is choking every night, there's not much left of a voice he could use for another tour.

    360 is the greatest rock tour of all time.

    They should retire while they're still kings of rock entertainment instead of having another tour with four tired/aged/dusted musicians

    Just as the Beatles, they should retire from touring and just keep recording new music.

    After enormous/amazing/majestic 360 Tour, I find it difficult for U2 itself to best what they've done with this Magnificent tour

    Go into the studio and make another ROCK ALBUM please.The songs from ATYCLB and HTDAAB (like them,or not) go over so well live.

    Great call,i'm not against them doing a little experiment here and there but they should stick with the rock music coz thats what they do best and it makes for awesome gigs.That was something i worried about as soon as i listened to NLOTH for the very first time,the songs just seemed too gentle for to come across when played live.Maybe thats why they've gone back to the rocky stuff from AB.
