Bono/Sting family photo...

Hi there, With all this U2/Police talk, I thought it was ironic that a U2 loving friend of mine just sent me this photo. I don't know the age of it, but thought the "rock royalty" shot was cute. Click Here: <A HREF="http://www.u2takemehigher.com/Bono/family/boal_sting.jpg">boal_sting.jpg </A> Cheers, Michelle

I know that many of us are members of more than one of the mailing lists, but for those who don't subscribe to Stingus, I wanted to share the news below....I'm sure his widow would be comforted by hearing from us. Anne ----- Forwarded by Anne Robinson/Rosslyn/CACI on 04/06/2002 01:13 PM ----- "Henry van de Kooij" To: <stingus(a)yahoogroups.com> <h.vandekooij@che cc: llo.nl> Subject: [stingus] Sad day 04/06/2002 07:44 AM Hello Sting Fans, Tonight my husband died in his sleep. His name was Henry and he left a note where he wanted me to thank you all for corresponding. I think probably one of Sting greatest fans left the planet. Although we are all grieving here I just wanted you all to ask to pray for him. I thank you all.

THE POLICE VS U2 ????
by Efrain Valles 06 Apr '02

06 Apr '02

I don't Think so... Those people in the article wth that Sting vs u2 theory REALLY MESSED up... I have The Police playing Invisible sun with U2... My theory is that STING WOULD GATHER MUCH OF A CROWD with the Blue turtles Album (his first)... don't get me wrong here... The album is great... but people were not used to seeing sting alone playing songs that are not the police... So Intelligent man Sting CALLS all his MATES (ANDY and Stewart) to play with him... It's all about Gathering people... and I take this chance to go vote at http://www.thepolice.4mg.com ... or don't vote.. My song is winning.. here is the poll so far... Which is the best Police Hit Single? De do do do, De da da da 0.00 % (0) Every Breath You Take 0.00 % (0) Roxanne 0.00 % (0) Wrapped Around Your Fingers 0.00 % (0) Don't Stand So Close to me 45.45 % (5) Invisible Sun 9.09 % (1) Spirits In a Material World 9.09 % (1) Every Little Thing She Does is Magic 36.36 % (4) Total votes: 11 Funny How EBYT hasn't gotten a Single Vote... and it's the police'c greates hit EVER... i like "Don't Stand so close to me" Better Have a Good day Y'All Efrain Valles _____________________________________________________________ FREE E-mail for Everclear Fans---> http://www.everclearonline.com/freemail.html FREE Downloads, Chats and Official Everclear News at the Official Everclear Website---> http://www.everclearonline.com _____________________________________________________________ Run a small business?

Re: U2 v. Sting?

I had pretty good position at the Amnesty show, and it didn't seem unlike alot of Police shows. They looked uncomfortable at times, but that was nothing new and usually amde for a more energetic show. Now, if Sting and U2 would record and put out "Every Bomb..." as a single, everyone would be really happy I expect. Cheers, Stephen S. Sayad

hey! i hope you have all had a chance to read the Uncut mag article on the police. there is something else i found interesting: the idea that the police reformed for the Amnesty shows because sting could not stand being upstaged by u2. i have mixed emotions on this theory: part of me cannot believe it. for one thing, sting and bono have developed into buds over the years. u2 also opened for the police on some GHOST tours. in 1986, sting was supporting his first solo album while u2 had a body of work to draw from - THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE being their 3rd(?) studio album. being the professional that he is, is it possible that sting could overlook this, especially since he limited himself as to the amount of police material he played on the "blue turtles" tour. on the other hand, the only ego in music that i have ever known to be on par with(even greater than)is paul "i have to close the show" maccartney. i think it quite possible that, given the egomaniac that he is, that sting really was bothered by his role as a u2 warmup and enlisted andy and stewart to helpe him get top billing on the shows. i don't know if any of you have ever seen video of the set the police played at the giants stadium show. i find it fascinating: stewart looks happy as a calm, andy looks like he wants to kill someone and sting looks like the most uncomfortable, out of place man on the planet. they didn't even look at each other - especially andy, who kept looking down. rumor has it that andy and sting had some argument before going on stage. also, they arrived at each show seperately and left the same way, in three different cars. regardless, as depressing it was these amnesty shows were the last time the boys played a true set together, it is equally sad, given how mad/unhappy/indifferent they seemed to be while playing... rich __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

So technically it wasn't Bono he insulted. ;) Supposedly.... Teri >Technically, it wasn't U2 who did it. It >was Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen... -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 7:10 PM To: Police Mailing List Subject: RE: [Police] U2 v. Sting What about the time that Sting commented on the reworking of the theme to "Mission Impossible"? Not remembering the exact quote, I believe he was unimpressed (putting it mildly) with U2's version, saying something to the effect that any idiot could put a song back into 4/4 time. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
