Ironically, Stewart seems to be the most 'connected' with fans. So it might have been a case of wrong place wrong time. I've met Sting several times. He can either be relaxed and talkative, or aloof and evasive. But never rude. He in fact came up to my wife Andrea once to say 'hello, nice to see you again' without us seeking him out.

From my experience, Andy is very easy to get a hold of, at least at his solo gigs. He's very willing to talk shop and makes you feel like he genuinely want to talk to you.

Any suggestions for tracking any of them down before the Chicago show? Just to say hello and thank them for all of their great contributions to music would be a dream come true. And maybe a signature :)

I have met Stewart three times and it was in places where I didn't go looking for him. 1. Backstage at Sting's DotBT tour stop in Park City 2. Outside Radio City Music Hall during the MTV Awards of 1985. 3. At a brewpub last weekend. I can't say anytime that he seemed pleased to be interacting with a fan. Maybe it was just my luck. I've met a lot of other public figures who have run the spectrum from pleasant to a--hole. I'd say Stewart was smack in the middle. I'm not saying that they don't have a right to be annoyed, but I'm just saying hello and not camping on their lawn. Even though I was backstage in #1, I've never met Sting. Andy seems to be even harder for fans to meet. _______________________________________________ Police mailing list Police@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this communication and any enclosures or attachments may be confidential and/or proprietary.
