I don't think so. The last two albums have been lackluster, but I do believe they might have another pretty good record in them. I can see it in songs like Water, I'm With You, and Room at the End of the World. I'd like to think as they get older, they get wiser and realize that the big hit they/Jon chase(s) is not gonna happen, and they can focus on more artistic content.

Of course, this is contingent on Richie coming back.

If there was a choice, I'd rather they become a band who makes good albums and doesn't tour rather than a band who has good tours and doesn't make albums.
