U2: what will Bono’s band do after their Las Vegas residency?
After completing their residency in Las Vegas, U2’s future seems uncertain. Even fans don’t know what to make of the ponderous silence from Bono’s band… Since the release of the album ‘Songs of Experience’ in 2017, the band has not released a new album, marking the longest period without a new production since their debut in 1980. Thankfully the band were still on stage, satisfying aficionados’ rock fix. Now fans are wondering what the band’s next plans are. A new tour? A new album? Nothing at all? Just a few one-off shows?
Fans are plagued by doubt as the band’s members age. But the great form of The Rolling Stones, in the middle of an American tour before an expected appearance in Europe and the UK & Ireland in 2025, suggests that the future, however certain it may be, is never bleak.
U2 live in 2025: towards a comeback with a new album?
Last year, The Edge revealed to Rolling Stone US that U2 were working on a new album, one that would be ‘guitar-centric’. However, no clear indication has been given as to when this long-awaited album will be released. While there have been rumours of a European tour and UK and Ireland dates in London and Dublin in 2025, nothing has yet been confirmed. Patience is the order of the day for fans hoping to see the legendary band live on stage once again.
The last time U2 were on stage in the UK and Ireland was in Dublin, for 4 dates at the 3Arena in November 2018… yes, 2018… 6 years ago… that’s getting a bit old… We wouldn’t mind one (or more) big show at Wembley Stadium or Croke Park in 2025, to celebrate the Irish band’s comeback. Fans want to relive the wild emotions of waiting and singing along live, with Bono, to music’s greatest hits. And they’ll be thrilled by the notes of ‘One’, ‘With or without you’, ‘Pride (In the Name of the Love)’, and ‘Vertigo’… and so many more…

Despite the uncertainty surrounding their future plans, it’s to be hoped that 2024 won’t be a blank slate, and the band’s commitment and enthusiasm for creating new material is a beacon of hope for those eagerly awaiting the next chapter in U2‘s musical history. We’re definitely up for a new album in late 2024 and a major tour of the UK, Ireland and Europe in 2025.
Some say that the Dublin band could wait until 2026 (yes, we know that’s a loooooooooooong way off) to celebrate 50 years in the business. Bono, The Edge and the others could well have some surprises in store for us as the anniversary approaches. U2 could pull an AC/DC and/or a Rolling Stone and go on tour to celebrate this great age with the fans.
