According to him, he’d need surgery to be completely back to normal and actively involved in the band again.

My body is not what it used to be physically. Like next year, I won’t be performing live next year. I don’t know what the band’s plan is. There’s talk of all kinds of things,” he said in 2022.

Mullen suffered intense back problems in 1996, therefore, when the band was recording their album Pop, it was delayed because he had to undergo surgery.

The team had to resort to using electronic drum machines to develop the album; resulting in the album having more of an electronic feel.

Mullen founded U2 on 25 September 1976 in his kitchen in Artane, along with Paul ‘Bono’ Hewson, David ‘The Edge’ Evans, and his brother, Dik, Adam Clayton, as well as Mullen’s friends Ivan McCormick and Peter Martin.
