I guess the word is out that the dvd is POLICE AROUND THE WORLD, while the box set should be MESSAGE IN A BOX vol. 2 (as stated on www.stingus.net) ----- Original Message ----- From: Drew Dudgeon To: 'Giovanni Pollastri' ; 'Mailing LIst Police' Sent: Saturday, December 30, 2006 11:53 AM Subject: RE: Re: [Police] Re: new Police album, or Tour? (and little secret) That sounds great news ! There can never be enough Police material on the shelves, so any advance of material from the back catalogue ( in any shape or form ) is a welcome boost for everyone's collection. Is there any chance of letting us know what the Dvd is ? Or what the box set is ? Or if its too secret then I'll understand ! Cheers many miles away...

(and little secret) Ciao from Giovanni.
The last time I saw Sting was in Denver two years ago and he played "Hole In My Life".
Too bad he didn't play that song for the whole tour; I heard it on Itunes and it sounded great; I do agree with you about the energy, and the arrangement was very close to the original one, with just more richness of sound.
I can understand Sting's desire to distance himself from the Police as much as possible.
There is a debate about this issue; when I talk with Stewart, or to his manager (he worked a lot with Sting on different issues), or to anyone in the entourage, the label, the management, they all say Sting wants to stay away from the word POLICE as much as possible....but I'm not that convinced about that; when I talk to Sting about The Police (very rarely I have to admit), or when I tell him something about Stewart or Andy he suddenly open his eyes with joy, you can see very well that he loves to think about the guys, about the band, he never try to 'avoid' the issue, on the contrary, he goes on, keep on talking, there is a marvelous spread of joy when we get into such a 'dangerous' word...or at least it's dangerous for everyone around him...I don't know if maybe in the past he gave them all the impression to try to forget such a glorious past, but sincerely, I'm pretty sure he must have changed his mind...you know getting older makes you think about the past with a different view, seeing children becoming adult, makes you see yourself in a different way...it happens to everybody, and Sting is no exception. One little secret I want to share with you (guys, I'm not giving this information on any other forum, list, website, so pleasekeep it for yourself) is that all the graphics of the 'new' Police stuff coming out in 2007 (dvd, box set, cd's) are on the hands of Sting graphic entourage...and people keep on saying that Sting wants to stay away from The Police verb? No way...
