No worries Daddyo, I've followed this band during the 80's and to be honest I just wanted to see them live.  They could play sh*t for all I care but to see Copeland and Summers back at it again is enough for me.  I've seen sting a few times already and I think he's the sh*ts but to see them all together was a long time dream for me.  Not to mention all my friends that followed the music, I will be the only one that would have seem them live!   But at $225 + tax my wife would kill me  :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :beermug: :beermug: :beermug: :beermug: :beermug: :beermug: :beermug:

Yeah I was reading moment ago that Sting's son was the opening act cool though  :beermug: :beermug: :beermug:

It was also announced that the opening act for the North American leg of the tour would be Fiction Plane, a pop-rock band from England featuring lead singer Joe Sumner, the son of Sting.

Dias de main reason why ah want to see dem.  Ah tired see Sting and his shows were good but lately he going in ah direction dat ah doh really care to know bout right now.  Ah jus wanted to see Copeland and Summers playing together and if Sting had gotten down from he friggin SOAP BOX the Police would be running things all now.  Ah doh think they have any band now-ah-days dat could even come reach de heights dat the Police had and still have.  AH remember watching Police preform at Err....A Rock war (ah think dat is what it was) and dem men real get on and it had bands like Steel Pulse and Third World and all dem dey.  Ah think dat really solidify de kinda understanding dat music is universal and yu jus have to listen to de heights dat ppl pushing.

I only hate de fact dat he went back to his Jazz roots and his music doh have de edge it used to have.  PPL still buy his albums, I stopped collecting them.

the thing i remember about the police is stewart copeland on the drums. fantastic drummer. sting kind of lost the plot after that.

Dias de main reason why ah want to see dem.  Ah tired see Sting and his shows were good but lately he going in ah direction dat ah doh really care to know bout right now.  Ah jus wanted to see Copeland and Summers playing together and if Sting had gotten down from he friggin SOAP BOX the Police would be running things all now.  Ah doh think they have any band now-ah-days dat could even come reach de heights dat the Police had and still have.  AH remember watching Police preform at Err....A Rock war (ah think dat is what it was) and dem men real get on and it had bands like Steel Pulse and Third World and all dem dey.  Ah think dat really solidify de kinda understanding dat music is universal and yu jus have to listen to de heights dat ppl pushing.
Third World,10,000% quality! :beermug: :beermug:

What i like about Sting is his willingness to experiment.

So many artists stick with what made dem famous to begin with.

The truly gifted tries different things and take risks.

Prince, Michael Jackson (i eh talking about his face changes) and Sting are examples.
