Anyone going to see the Police?

Tvad;

First, keep posting; your comments are to be watched for.

Now, the same thing happened to me. I promised my wife that I would get her tickets to a local 'So, you think you can dance' production with several of the Network's most famous stars.

I got into Ticketmaster and 9:58, no too early.

At 9:59, no too early

10:00, YES tickets available! I submitted the same 'best available' and, while my really slow dial-up connection connection processed the order...all of the high-speed DSL folks got their tickets and I was SOL.

I got myself DSL early the next week.

Oh, I paid premium after-market for the tickets as I did promise my wife..........

ps.,,Really who does listen to the Police nowadaze?

Count me as one person who still listens to the Police. GITM is a timeless record that sounds as good today as it did 20+ years ago. I have the box set and listen to it frequently... disc #3 is one of the greatest collections of songs I've ever heard.

If you're not a fan why are you wasting time posting in this thread?

I don't listen to them as much as I used to, but I still do. With my computer
music server, I have made a play list of my favorites from all there albums. I
probably spend more time listening to Ghost, Zenyatta, and Regatta, than the
others.

The Police (along with Dylan and the Stones) are one of the reasons I was an
early adopter of SACD way back when it first came out. I have not done SACD
for years now but have bought the most recent redbook remasters of their
albums (3-4 years back now, I think), which sound very good. Apparently
most of Sting's solo albums have been remastered but the remasters are only
sold in Europe. My friend found them on eBay and is awaiting them. I can't
wait to hear them.

I am going to see them in Tornonto - Lower bowl seats through a ticket
service.

I think Sting needs this tour, creatively speaking. Don't get me wrong, I love
his solo stuff through Brand New Day. IMHO though, he's lost his edge, and
this is an attempt to get it back (to say nothing of the nice paychecks they all
are going to make from this effort). Sacred Love was simply unnaceptable and
the latest classical inspired effort is, well, a pointless exploration for him
(again, IMHO).

Anyway, I hope the tour works for him--gets his groove back. I'm happy to
sit on the sidelines and cheer them on.
