not bad! Kind of a weird tempo and out of key singing during the middle though. Copeland tore it up, that was bad ass drumming! :D

    I was expecting a little more. It was great to see the on the same stage again but what the fuck was that echo thing Sting was doing. I might just be really high, but every time I looked at Sting I just kept seeing the judge from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
    Once in a while you can get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

  • Sting sounded great, its cool to see he still has amazing vocal power after all of these years performing
    "I Will Scream my Lungs out 'til it fills this Room "

    " I Will Feel Alive as Long as I am Free"

    "Are We Getting SomeThing Out Of this All Encompassing Trip? Makes Much More Sense To Live In The Present Tense"

    call me greedy.

    i expected a melody of greatest hits.

    once again sting shows its his way, or the highway.

    i now only fear dropping huge ammounts of cash ( that i really dont have ) ( probably rolling stones ticket prices, too )

    for a tour of totally rearranged police tunes that are 20 years old .

    what the hell in gods sake was that roxanne drawn from ?


    i dunno,...


    i was so so excitied to hear them but after it all , imo, sting teased us .

    Don't give up hope. If they had come out and played "Canary in a Coalmine" people would have been a little confused. They had to play either Roxanne, EBYT or MIB. I'll pass judgment after the press conference tomorrow.

    Totally. I want to see the Police mainly because of Copeland. He's fucking outstanding.
