U2 in Las Vegas

"I don’t think there’s any chance of the future drying up! I’ve been working on new stuff in parallel that's much more vital and requires a U2 band sound to fulfil it. I’m not sure U2 are going to turn into AC/DC exactly. I’ll still be trying to find ways to use the instrument that are new and unfamiliar. But I’m absolutely convinced that the guitar is going to be front and centre within mainstream music culture in a year or two, and I want to be part of that revival." - The Edge on new music, February 2023
