The name of the record and the tracklisting may be up for debate at this
point, but it is not bull-ca-ca that U2 have been spending a great deal of
time in the studio with the intent on putting out another record (or two).
Within the next year also seems to be a pretty fair timeframe, too.
I wouldn't bank on only one record with a mix of live and studio tracks.
Two separate albums -- one live and one studio -- are completely possible.
