I still don't know why some people here are so concerned, I don't think that much will change. We'll just wait and see, I guess.

Meanwhile, this has set off all kinds of speculation about what this means for U2. Fans are annoyed and maybe a little frightened. After all, McGuinness has functioned as a fifth member of the band (he gets 20% of the profits, just like everyone else) since the beginning.
But stepping back a little, this might be another one of McGuinness' brilliant business moves. By getting out of the way now, U2 is possibly pre-empting a crisis. What would happen to the band in the midst of and album and touring cycle if their manager and chief career architect was suddenly laid up?
