Re: [stingus] Top concert revenues
by Anne Robinson 29 Dec '01

29 Dec '01

These numbers are very interesting to me....can someone help me understand what drives these figures? For example Janet Jackson had 42.1M in revenues for 57 shows while 'N Sync produced $87M for only 43 shows. Similarly the deltas associated with the Matchbox 20 figures relative to those of the Backstreet Boys. Not picking on the "boy bands" by the way, their number of shows happened to roughly correlate to the other artists mentioned which reflected a large revenue to number of shows disparity. Thanks and hope everyone is enjoying their holiday!

I was asked by a very prominent member of the Sting community to send the following holiday greeting to all of you. At first I balked at the thought of it, but in the spirit of the holidays and with best wishes to all of you, I've relented. So, here goes: "Hope you and yours had a Melli, Melli Christmas."

Re: [Police] vegas newspaper review ;(
by Stingfan222＠aol.com 26 Dec '01

26 Dec '01

Wow, insomnia finally allowed me to read that review... How on the money was that? I know just how the reviewer felt hearing people say "that was great..." I felt that way after my last concert when people were saying that. Although I wasn't going to pass up a show as long as I had a good seat, I can't imagine people thinking that was GREAT! I guess for a first timer, maybe it is, and that's who Sting is trying to win over. He's already got us hooked. Here's to 2002 being a reclusive, song-writing Sting! We want you back in 2003! Need to replenish the $$$ after these busy 2+ years of Sting spending! Happy and Peaceful New Year to all of you. Michelle

Christmas duet?
by TaoofKim＠aol.com 25 Dec '01

25 Dec '01

I seem to vaguely remember talk last year of a Sting duet (with a woman) of a Christmas song last year. If I remember correctly, it wasn't to be released in the US until this year. Anyone remeber the name?
