Yeah; the history of Police rumours being what it is, they might have done better not to say anything about new songs etc. until they were sure they'd be playing them - let alone a new album. Honestly, I'm not complaining that the tour happened - if it did one fine thing, it was to make the fans equal. Before there was the generation who'd seen the band live and the generation who hadn't, and now we've all had that chance. :) It's just... what Marisa said. People do get disappointed when "new album" gets waved about... Angeline Message: 5

I don't have a problem with the excellent show that I saw. Where my disappointment lies is that I feel that they led us on. They kept hinting at "new music, new album", and that's where I have a problem. I wish they had been upfront from the beginning, admitting that there was no intention to make new music at this point in time. I would feel a lot less disappointed right now if that had been the case. Hence, my next thought: what really WAS the motivation behind the tour? Was it REALLY for us fans? If it was, then why won't they write new music FOR US FANS?
For what it's worth...
