Larry Mullen has taped an interview with old pal Dave Fanning which will be broadcast in full on Saturday 12th January on RTE 2FM 10am-12. Meanwhile a lot of the details have been leaked and they point to a possible release date of September for the next album. Here's an extract that was on the RTE website:

"I'd say we will be finished by the summer - and hopefully we will have something released by September.

"Hopefully what we will be able to do is release September this year and shortly afterwards, release again. That's what we want to do.

"We are working with [producer] Brian Barton at the moment of Dangermouse, no will.i.am is not there, just Mister Mouse!

"We have been working for the last couple of years mostly in Ireland which has been great, we have been here for a long period of time. There's lots of music which is great."

Us U2 fans know not to get too excited by stuff like this, but it must be said that Larry tends to be the most reliable when it comes to such info, so maybe The Edge is on fire ..... After the long silence it would be wonderful to have some new music from them. Watch this space!
