A reaction from Paul McGuinness. He expects a major tour starting next summer.

I have not read other reviews and have only listened to the album once.  I will give it more chances. However, my first thoughts.....lazy, crap, way to much sing talking.  If this is the best they can produce now, it's over. I fear after listening to this today will be the day in my memory U2 died. If you disagree w/me fine. I really don't want to write this. However, I love U2 and sometimes when you love someone you have to tell them what they don't want to hear.  Bono, you said you never wanted to be in a crap band...

Very Nice work   !   My first impression in real time - all the hype surrounding the technology, the marketing (giving the album away for free to xillions), - it's a simply wonderful album. True to form.  personalized/ universal  and very romantic!! & down to earth.  the sound technology is awesome.      i'm on the same page #
