I wondered if Sting is thinking about rocking out sometimes. I mean the Broken Music Tour kind of caught me by surprise when he announced it. Playing with more of a rock band and playing many more Police songs and by inference less Sting solo songs. That was a long tour as well - though not at big venues. To me in essence that could be construed as a bit of a step back for Sting - wouldn't you say. Maybe he is less concerned about what the critics say and doing what he wants to do. What was the marketing point of the broken music tour - he wasn't pushing sacred love really, has no new police material out etc. Yes he had the book but I don't think that tour was really that well connected and just to push the book (beyond the name reference). What do you all think? Playing with the Police at bigger venues, the kind he hasn't played for years now, might be a step up and increase his marketability and exposure so when he does solo stuff again his audience will be re-energized. A hopeful thought. David Lucky
