    I think we all welcome critical reflections on a band we all love. And personally I think that retirement of U2 is neither a "negative," nor a "positive" thing. It will be another chapter if it happens. That's all. And it seems only natural that not everyone will feel the same about it. I think we should all accept and tolerate that from each other.

    But right now "U2 retirement" it is only speculation and not really substantiated other than the fact that they're not getting any younger. I wouldn't mind if they continue another twenty year. I had a great time last year seeing the Stones for instance. But I also know that there are die-hard Stones fans who would rather have seen them retire 20 years ago.
    And in fact speculation about the Stones retirement is even older than U2 is in buisiness

    So speculatate what you want, and feel however you want to feel about it.
    Agree, it's neither super nor bad if this is the natural case.

    Ah, it works that way. Then it better for me to not read band forums including U2start anymore and only listen to the audio files.

  3. You mispelled the name!
    MITCH MITCHELL.
  4. And maybe I'm not the only one. This Larry topic is not meant to be funny.

    It's probably more like companies such as LiveNation who see the demand in tickets increase with rumours of retirement: "This Could Be The Last Tour Ever"... is great advertisement...just sayin'

    Although in this case I still think it is just random firing in order to attract interest and "hits" to their site(s).

    Okay fine. Whatever you want to sell with this website. But please let George Mccauley say something about what he came across about Larry.

    Huh? Since when am I trying to sell some thing on this website????

    And George McCauley is free to say what he want...and so is everone, including me.
    And I say "Larry's retirement" is "fake news" and speculation at best.
  8. What? You want to order us how this thread should be named and what we should talk about?
    And you think we want to "impose" views here.

    Hi Eddie Monsoon. I'm curious to know how much shows you attend on the E+I tour. Because you can't believe you get paid for this...
  10. Let me get this right: the guy with 5 different accounts that we already banned, asked us to delete his account but keeps returning here is posting a bunch of nonsense and wants to tell us how this thread should be? No way!

    Okay I'm sorry. That's why I don't get it. Do the mods also have multiple accounts?
