The tour break...
by Robert N. Bernard 06 Aug '07

06 Aug '07

I was at Giants Stadium last night, and they really were in excellent form. Sting's voice sounded a little tired (the third day in a row -- I am comparing to MSG as I was there on Friday), but still quite good. The two shows were quite similar - set list was the same - and they really were polished, without being robotic. Now they have three weeks off before Europe... I'm assuming that Andy and Stewart will go back to LA and spend time with their families, and Sting back to England. How much re-rehearsal do you all believe they will do before the new dates start at the end of the month? Rob Bernard -- * * * * * * * * * * Robert N. Bernard minusone(a)alumni.princeton.edu

I don't know if they unveiled anything new or not, but at the New Orleans concert Sting introduced a song saying "I wrote this in 1784- at the battle of New Orleans" or something similar (that's not a direct quote) and then went on to play an early police song but I can't remember which one. I took it as basically just a joke that it seemed like a very long time since the material was written. At that time, it definitely was not a new song but I can't remember what uth was. Kim Yep, that's been a canned Sting line at just about every show. I really wish he'd at least mix up the patter a little bit... Jean in Nashville

I was just about to mention Truth Hits Everybody as Sting came up with the "recorded this in 1878" line at the gig I went to in the intro for "Truth" I have to add I loved hearing "Truth" live...excellento!!!

Brand New Police song unveiled last night?
by Marisa M 06 Aug '07

06 Aug '07

Hello fellow fans, I was wondering if anyone from this list can confirm the following, that The Police apparently played a brand new song last night at their show, something called 1784? Here's the only information I have about it right now: "One of the highlights for me was a 'new' Police song that Sting announced as 'Here is an old song many of you have never heard before - 1784.' It was a very hard rocking song, almost like a sequel to Synchronicity. It was short and fast, perhaps a little less than four minutes long. It seemed very modern for today's radio play." If they did play a new song last night, I for one am sorely disappointed that they decided to wait until the very last performance of the first leg of their tour to release it. Kind of a slap in the face, in my opinion. My one major criticism of their Chicago performance WAS the lack of brand new material played. Thanks to anyone who can shed some more light on this. Maybe there IS hope for a new album after all. - Marisa http://www.stingetc.com --------------------------------- Choose the right car based on your needs. Check out Yahoo!

Brand New Police song unveiled last night?

"Every Little Thing".....a "very hard rocking song" ????? !!!!! peace, Simon ----Ursprüngliche Nachricht---- Von: F.Berthelot(a)Ramsa.com Datum: 06.08.2007 16:36 An: <police(a)mailman.xmission.com> Betreff: RE: [Police] Brand New Police song unveiled last night? Sting referred to Every Little Thing as a song he wrote in "1878 or something." The intro has been re-worked, hence "Here is an old song many of you have never heard before." The past three shows, he's said something to that effect before Magic. So no new song. Just a great concert of classic Police songs. ________________________________ From: police-bounces+fredberthelot=earthlink.net(a)mailman.xmission. com [mailto:police-bounces+fredberthelot=earthlink.net@mailman. xmission.com] On Behalf Of Marisa M Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 10:17 AM To: police(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Police] Brand New Police song unveiled last night?

Actual start times compared to announced start times
by Robert N. Bernard 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

So far, what has been the general experience with start times of Fiction Plame and The Police compared to the announced time on the ticket? For example, if my ticket says 8:00pm, then what time will FP actually take the stage, and what time will the boys take the stage? Thanks. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Robert N.
