Sting & Fiction Plane
by Fred Berthelot 29 Jul '03

29 Jul '03

Andrea and I saw Fiction Plane in New York last night. The show was excellent of course. They keep getting better and better, and I would say this was their best show so far, despite being a short set. It felt as if they are on the brink of hitting the big time 'cause the place was packed and a good number of people knew the words (especially Hate, their first single). Anyway, as we were hanging out after the show, we spotted Sting walking out of the club. We had no idea he was there, but it's really cool to see him going to his son's shows. He must be very proud. He's still sporting the full beard, which actually suits him very well. P.S. We also loved the opening band - The Gift, from Portugal. Look 'em up, they're very original and very cool: http://www.thegift.pt/english_site/home.html

"Care to disseminate it? Sam" Sure; I'll look for the issue of the Outlandos magazine it appeared in; it's from within the last couple of years. Angeline _________________________________________________________________ On the move? Get Hotmail on your mobile phone http://www.msn.co.uk/msnmobile

for Germans: Police music on OTTO-DVD
by DtmrCls＠aol.com 27 Jul '03

27 Jul '03

Hi a new German DVD with comedian OTTO features "De Do Do Do" on a TV show from 1981. OTTO explains English/American lyrics to Germans (Ramaladingdong / A Lop Bop A Loo Bop A Lop Bam Boom / De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da / etc...). The song also plays on the credits, but it's just the chorus over and over again. Dietmar

Though the album is about love, the themes do NOT sound like the hackneyed themes of your typical love songs. Indeed, Sting has always dealt with the complexities of love, the darker corridors. "Every Breath You Take," with its sinister undercurrent of surveillance and control and "When We Dance" with its love triangle, are two examples. Even, "Fields of Gold," in which the narrator looks back on a perfect moment in time, a moment he will always hold in his a memory but a moment that is gone nonetheless, can be viewed as a melancholy song, depending on one's perspective. Sounds as if we can expect more of the same lyrics from the new album. Those who were worried that the new album would be filled with greeting card drivel can rest easy. Johnny Nitro

off but related subject:

Off but related subject: Chris Botti. Saw him with that fabulous band of his last night at the Long Beach Art Museum, an outdoor venue right in front of the beach; another great performance. This time I dragged my husband with me, somewhat begrudgingly, and he ended up absolutely loving it! Chris announced last night that he finished his new CD that day, called something about A Thousand Kisses (I have a bad memory...or was it the wine?), due out in September. He played for two and a half hours, was very warm and friendly with the crowd, and announced with joy that they got to play a bunch of songs they hadn't performed in a while. His drummer once again kicked arse (she's truly amazing), as did the entire band. I am not normally a "smooth jazz" fan, but that boy (I can call him that as I am two months older) can really play. If you haven't seen him yet, catch him if you can, and bring someone you love! Peace, Love, & Sting, Jen "all made up and nowhere to go"
