Anyone going to see the Police?


The prices for decent seats at some of these shows is staggering. That said, I cannot miss them, they are one of my favorite bands of all time. It was really good seeing them play together at the Grammy's. Anyway, just thought I'd see what everyone thought of the tour.

Sting had a 40th birthday celebration that was released on Laserdisc tittled "Sting's 40th Birthday Celebration Live From The Hollywood Bowl" wich was released in 1992, so he was 40 most likely in 1991.

Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner, CBE born 2 October 1951

that would make him 55
Saw them last night at Wrigley field in Chicago. They were not the tightest live band, but I enjoyed the show. And it was fun to see a show at my favorite ball park.

If you want to see a very tight nostalgia act, go see the Stones. Say what you want about them, maybe they haven't made a good record in 20 years, but they can REALLY play together.

Maybe if the Police had been touring almost non-stop for the past 20 years, as the Stones have, they might be as good live. Probably not, though.

Andy Summers sounded fantastic last night. He is an excellent guitar player.
Saw the June 9 show in Denver, great experience. The band had synergy, as Sting was playing an old bass (really sweet sound) Stewart had 2 percussion rigs and Andy was outstanding!
gee Sting got biggigitus at Live Earth
lost his voice in Can't Stand Losing You
never fully recovered

when I saw them last week he was dead on all week
