U2 To Quit Touring?

Irish rock sensation U2 are reportedly planning to quit touring for good.

The CITY OF BLINDING LIGHTS megastars are nearing the end of their gruelling global VERTIGO tour, and they are convinced they have reached the pinnacle of their powers.

Guitarist THE EDGE says, "I'm ok to say bye-bye because I don't think we could top it.

"Bono has taken it to another level. I don't agree with everything, but I love that it's like a new paradigm, a different equation altogether."

	I hope that u2 will still be u2 and that this will not be the beginning of a brake up. However I don't agree that after the Joshua Tree there was no good album from u2. I think that the joshua tree was good, but a bit overrated if you compare it to the latern (POP!!!) work of the band. ACHTUNG Y'ALL!!!!

	I am certianly hoping U2 doesn't say goodbye after the Vertigo Tour. I believe they will do another tour , later on ,after they have a few years rest. They have played hard, with the Global Tour and Bono is most likely exhausted also, with all the causes and endevours he believes in and fights for. The Vertigo concert I went to was so fantastic, and I am looking forward to seeing them again someday. I can't emagine them saying goodbye. 'U2 always forever now'

	One can only hope these overrated oafs can put more into their albums in the future.Each overrated album now has about 1 and a half good songs.When Bono stops showing us all he cares so much,and lets the elected statesmen of the world do their jobs,instead of interfering in matters,he can then devote time to writing relevent material again.You would think the five years between albums would be enough time to do this but no.The Beatles used to come off the road and write and record a classic album in 1 month.The hype surrounding U2 should be earned,lets face it,their last great album,The joshua tree, was 18 years ago,since then its been more miss than hit.
