Dear Dietmar, although there is nothing like the real The Police, I believe that Stung does a pretty good job and I believe that saying they "suck" is a rather crude thing to say, although I respect your opinion. They are heavy Police fans and that is for sure reflected in the way they perform the songs, influenced by the many bootlegs they have been listening too for sure!.

Zenyatta Mondatta rating
by DtmrCls＠aol.com 27 Aug '02

In my opinion Zenyatta Mondatta is the album that sounds best, especially the drums. Reggatta has the best songs. Outlandos the energy. I don't like the sound of Sting's voice on Ghost and Synchronicity has very little to do with the Police I like. Could be a first Sting album. Dietmar

Hi, I had a look at the website of STUNG and some other Police cover bands. After downloading several mp3s I have to say - they suck! Especially Stung from America and Mr. Police from Germany (I guess the last one's a comedy group). Stop bragging. Dietmar

Wanna have Sting to play in your living-room...? YES, I do! OK, are there 333.33 of us that want to fork out $300 each to have him *kind of* to ourselves? I would do it! Michelle (who's finally back online after a 3 week hiatus due to a move to Austin!) I can't believe how much barn sex, viagra, mortgage emails were in my inbox after being away so long.... I'm surprised my delete button didn't give out on me today!

STUNG - showing the world the Police rock! FRIDAY & SATURDAY, AUGUST 30th & 31st HOT AUGUST NIGHTS WEEKEND LIVE!!! BIMBO'S 365 CLUB, SF (opening for SUPER DIAMOND) Doors at 8pm STUNG on at 9pm sharp BOTH nights!!! http://www.stunglive.com What a great time we had this past weekend in the City's Irish pubs, and we have an amazing weekend coming up in the heart of Little Italy! There is no better club to spend the weekend in San Francisco than Bimbo's 365 Club, and there is no better time to catch Super Diamond than when they perform Neil's classic live album "Hot August Nights" cover to cover over 2 nights, including a small orchestra in their live mix for a huge sound! Paired up with the great sounds of the Police, it is gearing up to be a night to remember. And STUNG is tighter than ever, with a couple of great Irish pub shows under our belt this past weekend to ease back into playing after some time off (ask Eric about his Peru trip!). We will be ready to impress! Just imagine Sting and the Police opening for Neil around 1979 or so - a great show not to be missed! NOTE: THESE SHOWS WILL SELL OUT!!! But...if you come early enough to catch STUNG (on at 9pm SHARP!) you will most likely get a ticket before the shows sells out, which is inevitable at these popular gigs! Or order online at ticketweb.com. But after about 9:30pm - Fah-get about it! More STUNG upcoming gigs: Friday, September 13th, 9pm BLAKE'S ON TELEGRAPH, Berkeley w/ LIQUID Friday, September 27th, 9pm RED DEVIL LOUNGE, SF opening for NOTORIOUS Saturday, September 28th, 9pm LAST DAY SALOON, Santa Rosa w/ ZOO STATION Check out www.stunglive.com for more info, sights and sounds! Cuz the Police just rock! -STUNG www.stunglive.com

t-shirts
by CKBiehn＠netscape.net 26 Aug '02

26 Aug '02

Ciao everyone, I would like to buy a Regatta de Blanc t-shirt, black with the blue-and-black album cover on the front. About five years ago I bought a bunch of new t-shirts from Outlandos (I think) with the classic album lettering on the front of each--I bought one for each album. My Ghost one has since bit the dust--I'd like to get another one of those, too, but in the interest of longevity I'd like to do as I did before--that is, get a new T-shirt instead of one that is 20+ years old. Does anyone know where I can find them? All I saw on Sting.com was All This Time shirts. And eBay has scant pickings in the Regatta department. Thanks in advance, Courtney __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.

Ghost is my favorite Police album. I always thing of Every Little Thing as a little "jewel" hidden amid the darkness. Nice to know Sting feels the same (or at least A&M did). Maggie >>> foxie <forfoxie(a)yahoo.com> 08/26/02 08:11AM >>> sting feels kind of the same way about GHOST IN THE MACHINE - that is a dark record and that A&M released "every little thing" as a single because it was, as he called it, "a chink of light". i don't know about the rest of you, but i will take sting's "darker" songs over the "lighter" ones any day. that is why i still think THE SOUL CAGES is his best solo record (and why i like MERCURY FALLING so much)... best, rich --- Angeline Adams <angeline1981(a)hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I dunno,maybe he just felt like he had to be honest > about the choice of song > for the single release?I don't think it indicates > that he dislikes the > album;in fact I read a few years ago that it was his > favourite.Mine too > actually!:) > > Angeline > > > >From: police-request(a)mailman.xmission.com > >Reply-To: police(a)mailman.xmission.com > >To: police(a)mailman.xmission.com > >Subject: Police digest, Vol 1 #289 - 2 msgs > >Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 06:34:37 -0600 > > > >Send Police mailing list submissions to > > police(a)mailman.xmission.com > > > >To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, > visit > > > http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police > >or, via email, send a message with subject or body > 'help' to > > police-request(a)mailman.xmission.com > > > >You can reach the person managing the list at > > police-admin(a)mailman.xmission.com > > > >When replying, please edit your Subject line so it > is more specific > >than "Re: Contents of Police digest..." > > > > > >Today's Topics: > > > > 1.

Hi all, I dunno,maybe he just felt like he had to be honest about the choice of song for the single release?I don't think it indicates that he dislikes the album;in fact I read a few years ago that it was his favourite.Mine too actually!:) Angeline >From: police-request(a)mailman.xmission.com >Reply-To: police(a)mailman.xmission.com >To: police(a)mailman.xmission.com >Subject: Police digest, Vol 1 #289 - 2 msgs >Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 06:34:37 -0600 > >Send Police mailing list submissions to > police(a)mailman.xmission.com > >To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police >or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > police-request(a)mailman.xmission.com > >You can reach the person managing the list at > police-admin(a)mailman.xmission.com > >When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific >than "Re: Contents of Police digest..." > > >Today's Topics: > > 1.

Saw this on MTV.com
by Kinetic Kid 26 Aug '02

26 Aug '02

Hey everyone, I read this on MTV.com today and can't beleive he feels this way about one of his best albums in my opinion. In non-war-related news, this week in 1991 Sting shot a video for his single "All This Time" from his about-to-be-released album, The Soul Cages. The clip featured his girlfriend Trudie Styler (who is now Mrs. Sting) and Melanie Griffith. On the set of the video in London, Sting said, "This song sounds really jolly, but the rest of the album's totally miserable. It's just a cheap way of trying to get people to buy the record. You put a single out that they'll like and they buy the record and they realize they've been duped again. Sorry." Kinetic Kid __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
