The Police / Sting
 

Strange there isn't any topic about The Police, respectively Sting here. Anyway:
Their reunion, at least for one tour as we hear, must be reason enough to start such.

Watch out for the current dates (and the prices):

Yeah, that is strange.

I have lots of both Police and Sting, it´s great, specially Stings relaxing songs from his solo career I enjoy often.

I loved The Police, but I have never liked Sting alone. The songs I like best, is "So Lonely" and "Roxanne." Since The Police is on a tour this summer, I have heard all the songs twice. But it is no longer magic... So I will not be on a The Police concert this year I am afraid.

If someone is interested, here's the playlist of June 28th 2008, Messehalle 1 (moved from Central Stadium - holding around 50 000 people - to one of the new fairground halls, 13 000 tickets sold), Leipzig, Germany:

The new one of Sting, "If On A Winter's Night", is worth a listen...
Hoping he's given up Pop-whatever-opulent-wannabeitall-kind-of-music he did until his John Dowland
album "Songs From The Labyrinth" for good.

(Hah! Been aliening Kaz once again...[smile2])

There was a interview radio show (BBC Radio 2) and they played old and new material and I had forgotten how good some of the early Police music was (I can still remember getting Roxanne on blue vinyl. He sounded chilled out and content.
