After the show, U2 give a press conference at which Bono is asked about U2's future plans, "It's very easy to become a parody of yourself. We work in a sort of improvisation. The Edge would play his guitar and we'd say, 'Hey, don't play that, that sounds too much like U2!' And we'd say 'But we are U2!' We must develop new areas. Those first three records are part of a whole, and we feel it's finished. We feel that U2 are to disband. Today was the last U2 gig. I'm not talking about the end of U2 -- I'm talking about the start of U2. U2 is just beginning. This is the end of a cycle."
