P.S. The answer to the question previous is, of course, "*uck off *sshole". In some of the live clips from "Around the World" the drums say f**K off you c**t. Did he have two different sayings? I wonder if he wanted to add more drums to speak more of his mind.

Re: [Police] Why compare Sting and Stewart?
by Michele Petri 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

very well said Giovanni I couldn't agree more why compare ?? & more importantly why would you WANT to compare them ? their is no point ! totally different bags altogether . sting Is Great at what he does & stewart Is Great At what He does so why not enjoy both for what they are . Isn't that the beauty of music after all ?, each individuals or bands expression ? & as far as Musicianship between the two bands , well that is simply a matter of taste me personally i would kill to play with anyone from the bnd tour especially the new additions 'Mcbride& the new drummer " Just my Two Cents Michele _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

boneheaded babies
by Diggie 25 Nov '01

If you don't like a post, swallow and move on. If you don't like a thread, don't open the posts with those titles. No one said that anyone has an obligation to read or respond to anyone's post. Just because one or 2 vocal people have an opinion, it is not necessarily the opinion of "the list" Being rude only displays folks for the boneheads that they are. I'm thinking that most of us are adults. Some of the things I have read here have precipitated me to respond, in anger, but I didn't need to. Whining about the list, and then leaving or threatening to leave seem just plain silly. I'm all for the healthy exchange of ideas and debate. Sometimes that gets rough. If that offends you, just skip the damn posts. There's no way to keep idiots off the list. There's no way to make people polite in their posts. This is a freedom of speech thing! So here's to the rude, opinionated, cruel and idiotic of the list....I even think that I prefer these posts to the whiney ones about "now I have to leave the list....boo hoo, won't that make you feel bad about what you did to make me leave the list" I've left the list a couple of times, but never felt a need to chastise the list and explain that it is because of certain posts that I "had" to leave the list. I frankly never thought that anyone would care and I frankly don't care much one way or another who comes and leaves, as long as there's new information and interesting stuff to read from time to time. If you don't like a thread, don't pursue it. If you don't like what one person says consistently, find a way to use your email program to filter out these posts. And for those whose arguments get personal, why not pursue these arguments one on one and save the rest of us the bandwidth, the memory and the time from having them downloaded to our computers? I'll stop my idiotic whining now. Geez what a bonehead! Diggie

Selling my police and sting stuff...
by Jason Sheldon 25 Nov '01

25 Nov '01

I've grown out of my frenzied collecting habit, and besides which, I haven't had a record player for years, so I'm selling off some of my Sting and Police related items. Mostly old vinyls, some nice things, some not that interesting. Might also get rid of some books/CD's, don't know yet. http://cgi6.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewListedItems&userid=plexus&inc… The list will continue to expand in the next few weeks, so keep checking it up. I forgot to add in the auction details, because delivery FROM the UK to certain other countries CAN be very expensive, people are more than welcome to arrange their own collection if they wish. This is at their own risk of course. Best regards, J.

Sting on A&E last night
by Terrence Sheehan 25 Nov '01

25 Nov '01

I just thought I should write a short note about last nights A&E broadcast. First of all I was much more pleased with this content than the BND tour, although in agreement that some of us are kind of tired of this reworking of songs for each different band assembled. I was kept interested as a songwriter as the way he fused and pieced these songs together. There was a gentleness to this performance which was perfect in the light of the 9/11 disaster. Perfect is pretty good. Take Care, Terrence Sheehan

SI', SONO ITALIANO
by Michele Piumini 25 Nov '01

25 Nov '01

Hi everyone, Sting appeared today on "Quelli che il calcio", an Italian tv program where, as you may remember, some time ago he'd already performed an incredible Brand New Day live from a train because he hadn't made it to the studios in Milan on time. He played Fragile and after that he was teased about his sexual capacity (I wonder how many Italian viewers knew where the joke came from). But the most exciting bit for me was when it came to his living in Tuscany. The presenter asked him: "May we say that you are one of us?", to which he answered, in perfect Italian: "SI', SONO ITALIANO" (Yes, I am Italian). Wow... Cheers Michele

Confusing
by Kinetic Kid 25 Nov '01

25 Nov '01

Hey all, I am really sad to see yet another list member leave (Clarissa see you soon i hope!). I have been a member since the first day i have found the list five years ago and back then we had a few more influencial list members who have left for the same reasons (ex: Wendy and Dave, ...). Actually they started a new list that i am not aware of anymore, but was invited though i refused because i still beleive in this one still. I still hope people will be able to discuss freely of their opinions without having to be bombarded by others in a shameful way. Personally, i have my own opinion about Sting, Andy and Stewart for that matter. I still haven`t bought Sting`s album yet for a reason, but will comearound to buying it soon, though i think he takes his fans a bit for granted. I think he is really not reinventing himself much by rearranging his songs every year with a new band everytime. To me it`s called making the quota. I have been a Sting fan since i bought my own first vinyl copies of The Police when i was just 12 years old. But i think he is making himself grow old in his music and putting any sort of life into since i would say Soul Cages and that tour. However, we kind of missed Stewart in action for all those years he needed to be stimulated to comeback in the rock platform and luckily guys like Trey and Les see the musician for what he is. You can say anything about Stewart, but what makes him special in any music he plays, whether it be Sting or something else he brings the music alive and brings out the best out of the other musicians, especialy Sting andhis music. Songs like EBYT and others don`t seem that fad and plain when he plays them and challenges our Sting abit more. That is what terrence and probably others were trying to explain and were feeling nowadays. So seeing Stewart play is quite new and impressive to see in this challenging new band, which i think is quite fresh and fun to hear. p.s: I did not mention Andy because he has been doing it well for quite awhile now.
