The title is "On Air" and the tracks are : 1 Vivaldi 2 Propositions 3 It happened today 4 Young mother in style 5 Situations 6 Blind man 7 Thinking on the floor 8 Stretch 9 Star naked 10 Woman on a one night stand 11 Midnight wire 12 Hot'n'bothered 13 The fool Stew plays on tracks 9 to 13. This concert has been recorded at the Paris Theater, London 29/01/76. The other tracks were recorded in 1970 and 1971. The price is 94 FF that is around 16 US$. It's good, Steward's got a double-bass drums and also plays some blues. Funny. Vincent "Jim Orme" <jorme@capecod.net> on 29/03/99 22.57.04 Please respond to "Jim Orme" <jorme@capecod.net> cc: police@lists.xmission.com (bcc: Vincent CADORET/FR/Dalet) >BTW, did you ever hear him playing with a double-bass drums ? I read in an >interview >that he did with "Curved Air" for a few months and that it changed a lot >his way of playing. >I have a live record of Curved Air and I think he plays with a double-bass >drums >but it's not very present. By "live record" I assume you are saying that this is not a bootleg? Because the Curved Air album Live(their only live album)does not have Stewart on it,as he was not a member at that time. If this is a bootleg,could you tell me what year it is,track list,etc.? I don't have any live Curved Air material and would be interested in getting one with Stewart on it. sincerely, obsessed Police fan - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Sting says he's a "natural musician" and acting is something he got into by accident. He says he gets more pleasure from music than anything. As to whether he sings better than he acts, he says he just does what he does and it's up to someone else to decide whether he's any good at it. Sting currently appears in the movie "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

There is something about the lyrics, the minimal off-notes by Andy during the chorus, the high hat and the singing.... All very minimalist, from the words right down to the bassline. Something very angry and very sad all at once. Police at their very best. They played the local Uni bar when I would have been about 7 years old and they opened with Roxanne and ended with this. One of my father's friends saw it and said it was the best concert he's ever been to. And just to top it off, for all you Aussie Crawl fans out there, they were the support act.....

Some years later my sister rented the flat next door only to be horrified that the candle hadn't gone out. Originally a friend an I bought Regatta after being reasonably seduced by outlandos. We sat and listened to every track only to decide that at least the album had two good songs - Message and Walking. We later realised the error of our ways as our musical palletes developed and accustomised to the new sounds of THE POLICE. What a concept. In my opinion Police far surpassed any of its predeccessors - beatles etc. But back to song of the week. Love this song. Its the quintessential Police. Its when all three became one or found their way to show off themselves without deminishing the others. Its always resonated with me personally.The "cod" jamaican accent everything - It sounded so exotic not knowing much of reggae at that time... . Andy said the song was one of the most exciting he'd played on. Its a masterpeice of Stings writing. He seems to describes it retrospectively as clumbsy in its welding of reggae - rock which later he described his writing as becoming more seemless eg Don't stand. Nevertheless I think he also knows that its one of the most profound songs he's ever written and one of the most amazing recordings / performances/ interpretations/ contributions by other musicians- Andy & Stewart. I think in that sense its like a childs painting - more brilliant than Picasso and completely fresh. Its super!!!! ANd it changed my life as I now try and write songs and record. Its amazing that a song can have such an effect on ones life on all of our lives. A change of consciousness!!! My tit bit about it is that on the last line sting sings " sending out an S.O.Blue" which commes from an old add for "ESSO blue" petroleum I guess. What I found interesting the other day when I read through the lyrics was the irregularity of the metre. The song is so structured 8 repeats of the four chords to make a full verse but the words vary in syllable nos. This makes different rhythms and inturn melody. I haven't got the song handy so I can't check but i started writing down syllable nos. to see what they are.Probably noones interseted in this but I was from a writing point of view. It must also be the first hit song ever that uses chords with stacked fifths as opposed to standard triads.

Sorry, I didn't have time to thank each of you in private. I mean it. I was just watching "Lethal Weapon 3" on DVD. Some of you probably noticed that there is a whole different "It's probably me" mix with violins and flames sounds. Unfortunately, the song is not complete. It's cut after the first chorus. I have two questions : - Is the version on the original soundtrack CD exactly the one I heard on the DVD ? Or is it the same as on Sting's album ? I have the 2 and 3-song "It's probably me" CD, but I can't find that version. - Does anyone have the full version of the movie mix ? Is it available on a promo CD ? If yes, please, get in touch with me in private. I am also looking for a MP3 file of the originally not broadcasted "If I ever lose my faith" VH-1 Storytellers version (stereo version). Give me a sign as well... A million thanks, from Paris !

But let's face it we don't live in a perfect world and other artists cover other artists. I have a band of my own and I suppose we may remake a few police tunes, and they will be compensated justly if we do a good job. That's why we have a.s.c.a.p. and b.m.i. artist agencies, so the artists don't get ripped off, what are we supposed to do as artist's pretend these works have'nt influenced us. I would hope the musicians would be honored that we covered their material when they cashed their royalty checks for our remakes. So I hope I do a good job and you all like the remakes, I know how hard it will be to get an approval, the Police are Man God's!!!, what else can I say!! But I hope they are flattered or I should have written my own song instead.

It's impossible to imitate the Reggatta de Blanc drumming of message in a bottle. It seems also that Stew himself did not try to reproduce it in concert, since the drumming of all the the live versions I known (and I heard a lot of it) are quite different. It's the favorite recording of Stewart together with murder by numbers, he said in some interviews. (Regarding a single song, concerning the LP it's Ghost in the Machine). All the "covers" ( (-: 'cause to me it's really a Police song) of Sting I heard were disappointed regarding the drums, even with Vinnie Colaiuta.

However, I wouldn't say all 'cover' versions were bad - I heard Andy Summers play it with a three piece band on his last tour at it was fantastic. Cheers Dave P.S.

There's just no other word for it. "Message in a Bottle" is,to the best of my knowledge,the greatest song ever created. The music is incredibly composed;Sting was apparently at the height of his creativity at this point. It really proves that Sting was the primary songwriter for the Police. Excellent lyrics as well;it opens up with typical selfishness,related in marvelously metaphorical language,and at the end Sting smacks you in the face and shouts,"Wake up! You're not the most important thing in the universe!" It's wise,it's unique,it's even humorous. This song is also an incredible example of energy and talented playing in the group. They played fast,they played emotionally,they played creatively. I agree that Sting's playing this is a cover. Sting didn't craft "Message in a Bottle" anymore than he crafted all of his biographies. Sting sketched "Message in a Bottle". The Police painted it. "Message in a Bottle" is incredibly vocalized as well. Note how Sting's voice seems to tighten up in the chorus before relaxing at the end,his voice flowing over,"message in a bottle,woh..." Stewart's drums are incredible,he keeps the beat pumping while spliting loose with his own exciting rhythms. I really like that aspect of Stewart's drumming;most drummers just seem to stick with the beat,and they don't make it as exciting as Stewart does anyway. This is a classic example of this style. Andy's guitar really shines;even before I recognized his songwriting excellence this proved him to be a invaluable member of the Police. Henri, Sting and even Stewart never played anything on guitar half as good as this. I also must mention the bass-very mood stirring. I love the way it seems to stimulate the flow and pulse of the ocean. For closers,I must again emphasize the need for a reunion. One of Sting's arguements is that he had reached the top with the Police and could not better it,only repeat it(in reference to the Synchronicity concert). My arguement is: sure,MAYBE they've done the best possible in a concert. But on an album? I have yet to see an album filled with songs of the same quality as such songs as "Message in a Bottle","Bring on the Night","Does Everyone Stare" or "Invisible Sun". I don't think the Police have accomplished all they can. This song proves that they can do better(hard as it is to imagine). sincerely, obsessed Police fan - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

It was quite incredible as they did every song from the album quite true to the oriinal versions. I thought of this re: some of the comments about Stewart's drumming in the studio vs live playing and I have to say that this guy did a pretty good studio version. It was an amazing night and the venue- "The Harbourside Brasserie " hopped along like it hadn't done for a long time. It was good to see that musicians take this album pretty seriously as a seminal work. I sometimes wonder why there isn't more fuss about the Police and what they did. Fuck the Beetles and Bob Dylan. I'm so over that shit. Also it seems the Police fan base is very much alive and well. I got quite a shock when I saw the cover of the album plastered on a cafe wall advertising the gig - as you can imagine. Great photo great marketting. Cuts through all the other crap! The other great thing was that you would have had to have been pretty lucky to see all those songs performed live by the Police so it was the next best thing. But it showed how amazing it would have been to have discovered them in some uni pub as described yesterday. The energy of those songs is rivetting .the taughtness of the 3 (5 people in this case) peice format shines through more than it did on the big Synchronicity type productions. Other interesting points were that this band had two guitarists playing and the singing which changed with different guests was the hardest aspect to achieve. I tried to get them to let me sing one but no takers. Has anyone else seen anything like this done elsewhere.

I immediately turned to my girlfriend (of over 4 years--and over that span she has heard, often to her dismay--since she's not much of a Sting or Police fan--practically every single Sting and Police tune in existence) and asked her, "Who's that?" (with an innocent expression of pure unknowing). She listened for a full 5 seconds and replied, shrugging, "Bob Marley?" She was shocked when I told her who was singing (I was trying to contain my laughter). Anyway, Elvis Costello will, no doubt, have a fit when he hears Sting's fake "Jamaican" enunciation once again. I imagine "Another Pyramid" would be a hit with most young kids/children. But the repetitive chorus (and the backing vocals), are in my opinion, just brutal. Actually, I've had similar complaints regarding much of Sting's current material; I find everything leading up to the chorus is pretty decent, but the chorus itself is often dull, repetitive and jarring. For example, "Something the Boy said", I think, contains an interesting arrangement, and the lines/music leading up to the chorus is interesting (reminds me a bit of Fortress). However, the chorus is repetitive (one line repeated over and over) and not exceptionally melodic. Also has anyone noticed that Sting's "sound" has not changed in any remarkable fashion over the past 2 (even 3) albums or so? Everyone has mentioned getting rid of certain musicians Sting's carried around with him, but I really think the problem lies with Hugh Padgam. This guy is a monument to 80s "pop" sound. While he did produce, in part, The Soul Cages (I do not consider this cd Sting's best--but it does have its merits)--perhaps Sting's most overwrought work in terms of production, there are elements of that 80s sound, even on this cd. Dominic's guitar sound on "All This Time" doesn't differ much from the guitar sound heard on "Invisible Touch". And frankly, I don't think the production sound (especially instrumentation) has changed remarkably in the past 2 studio cds. If Sting's truly interested in progression and is opposed to the status quo--why not try a different producer, especially one that's not associated with the early to mid 80s pop music scene? I'm not suggesting Sting try loop freaks like William Orbit, Flood, or Bjork's boyfriend, but there are other decent producers besides Hugh Padgam. I know this email is going to get some backlash, but I don't hear too many people discussing Hugh (and I would genuinely be interested to read any comments in favour or opposed to him). I know Hugh had some success with The Police, Genesis and other artists--but I associate Hugh with the past (the 80's) and not the present or the future in pop music (hence, if one were to use Hugh over and over agains, I think one becomes stuck in a time warp).

See, all this time I've been naively assuming that the different drumming was just part of Stewart's genius... *s* IMHO I can only think of two other drummers in the whole world who even *begin* to approach his level of genius.

I don't think it's the case on "Message". For example on "every little thing...", Stew said he recorded it in one shot with this effect. Don't consider this as a facility.

I'm not suggesting >Sting try loop freaks like William Orbit, Flood, or Bjork's boyfriend, >but there are other decent producers besides Hugh Padgam. I have to agree with this, although I don't think Hugh Padgam is a very "dominant" producer. The Sting albums I liked most we're done with Pete Smith and Neil Dorfsman. On the other hand Padgam was involved in my two favorite Police albums (Sync & Ghost). Anyhow, on those four early to mid '80s albums I think the songs we're simply better, or at least more challenging to work on. I would like to see Sting taking a radical new direction, though. I think he has to start an album for once with some very clear productional decision made in his mind already - and maybe even write the songs with those decisions in mind. For instance, doing a jazz-album with a contrabass-piano-drums combo. Or doing a pure 'heavier' guitar album. It would be interesting to see what would happen if Sting would confine himself production-wise to a 'vision'. (hate that word). The way he's going about his work these last couple of years it all sounds obligatory & not very inspired to me. It has become this lukewarm pop-mash. I think it's not about the producer then (although another producer might break the rut) but about daring, and making choices. On the other hand I must say I'm more worried about the songs themselves, than anything else. I'd rather hear an inspired song done in a straightforward way than a uninspired one in a radical way.

Yeah, and you can sure hear it in use on live versions of "Bed's Too Big w/o You". I know in Darkness he actually plays the Hi-hats twice and layers them together in the final mix.

This is my favourite Sting album by far ("Nothing" is probably a close second). Only song I skip over now on Dream is the first track . . . Unfortunately the sound quality on Dream is soooo muddied; but this may be due to the time period and technology than anything else. I'm not suggesting, by the way, that Hugh Padgam completely sucks (although, I do associate this guy with an 80s sound, and Sting's always talking about challenging the status quo). . . Only that, from what little I know about music, working with different producers can offer different perspectives--offer new stimuli for "creative" juices.

Anybody else going on this list? I know I am. :-) While I'm in NY, there's a few palces I'd like to go and I'd appreciate it if someone would provide me with a few addresses. 1) Sting's address. Now... I don't plan on stalking the man, camp outside his appartement building or anything like that. I'm a sain and decent 34 year old mother of two (Does this help?) I'd just like to get a glimpse of the building. And who knows, and could get lucky... So if you have an address or street name and are willing to share this with me, just e-mail me privately. 2) Record stores where I could find imports ans boots at decent prices (Sting stuff of course) 3) Bookstores 4) Restaurants and nice places to get a drink So if you care and have a few minutes to waste, I'll be glad to read your suggestions... BTW, I've posted this request a while back and didn't get any response (except for Julian who was very nice and contributed hotels and restaurants suggestions). Don't you people like me? About the show. Anyone who watched the Grammies must have seen how enthousiastic Trudie was after Ricky Martin's performance. I thought it was so cute to see his name added to the list of performers for the Carnegie Hall shoe just a few weeks later. So long for now.

Thanks for the info. The last time Sting appeared on Andy's album playing bass, Andy appeared on Sting's album, would there be a repeat? I hope Sting doesn't repeat himself doing a great vocal performances on other albums (Leaving Las Vegas) and just an OK performance on his own (Mercury Falling). Looks like he did a heck of a job on Andy's. From Andy's web site: Summers pushes the parameters on "'Round Midnight," resulting in one of Green Chimneys' high points and one of former partner Stings finest vocal performances. "I thought he'd be great on this, I called him up and he called back immediately. He was completely into it. I got the track together with Peter and Dave, then I took it to Sting who was in Italy at the time. He sang it and it was great. He sang with a lot of feeling. I think he was pretty comfortable doing this."

What a blast! I had never seen him live before, and I don't own any of his albums (I'm frankly not a classic rock person at all), but my girlfriend scored some decent tickets so off we went. I had a great time watching this "old man" run around on stage, full of energy, swinging the mic above his head, totally working the crowd. It was great! When I compare this show to the many of Sting's that I've seen, I think Sting could take a cue or two from Rod on stage demeanor: step out from behind that bass once in a while and have some fun! Anyway, Rod Stewart was a good show. Makes me look forward even more to Sting's inevitable Lovers tour!

Vinnie Jones, Lulu, Jack Dee and Sting were among those taking part in Shi-Wa (which means Peace), a show inspired by the works of Shakespeare which was organised by Sting's wife Trudie Styler. Vinnie Jones took to the stage to re-enact the fight scene from Romeo and Julliet which his Lock Stock.... co-star Nick Moran, while Ethan Hawke recited the 'To be or not to be' speech from Hamlet and Miranda Richardson read a sonnet. Despite her dedication, Trudie -Who co-produced Lock....- admitted that organising the event had been more difficult than she'd anticipated. "Maybe I underestimated how hard it would be to pull together an evening like this", she said. And to thank cast members she gave each of them a saffron pashmina scarf. There are four photo's (one of the concert and one of the rehearsal and two others) as well. - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

It was done in India, Sting talks about Kenny Kirkland, India, Spiritualism, playing there in '80 with the Police etc... It's really good, and was done by Adrian Deevoy.

Paul Mitchell, a record dealer from Sheffield, England, was found guilty at Bow Street Magistrates Court on six charges in breach of the Copyright Designs & Patents Act 1988 brought by the BPI, the body representing British record companies. Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Mr Ronal Bartle fined Mitchell =A3200 on each charge (=A31,200) and ordered him to pay the BPI costs of =A38,000. The court action followed the seizure of hundreds of bootlegs at a record fair in Victoria, London last May. Artists featured on the confiscated recordings ranged from The Beatles to the Spice Girls and included live concerts and compilations of B-sides. <br> <br> BPI evidence stated that Mitchell had been selling the illegal CDs for =A313 each and he admitted in court that he earned over =A340,000 tax-free annually from his operation. The Chief Magistrate additionally ordered the forfeiture of the 737 CDs seized from Mitchell. <br> David Martin, Head of Operations at the BPI commented afer the verdict: "I am delighted with the successful outcome of our first private criminal prosecution. Wherever possible we shall continue to push for prosecutions through close co-operation with the local authorities but this case proves that we can take action ourselves where necessary." <br> </font> <BR> Stingchronicity <<a href=3D"http://www.stingchronicity.co.uk/"= EUDORA=3DAUTOURL>http://www.stingchronicity.co.uk/</a>> </html> - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Tickets as such do not go on sale - you don't get an actual ticket. You make a reservation, they enter your name in the 'book' and you turn up for your seat/table on the date/time you agreed for your reservation. The intention is clearly for you to have a meal there (as it was last year at Andy's shows) and the cost of the ticket is then added to your evening's bill. For what it's worth the food is good but the beer expensive (it is London remember!) Ticket prices haven't been decided yet but they indicated they could be between UK=A315-=A320. Kenny Garrett is they this week and his tickets are priced at UK=A320. The Club confirmed that Andy would be using the dates for the UK launch of "Green Chimney's". The girl we spoke to had heard the album - they have been sent an advance copy - and said everyone was raving about it, and that it was very different in style to "...Mr X". In fact, "brilliant" was the word used. Reservations can be made now, by calling the telephone number quoted on Andy's "Touring" page http://www.andysummers.com - sorry haven't got the number to hand right now.

Also, Sting, if you're listening, on the next tour, please drop the "When the World/Bring on the Night" medley for something new, I have been hearing it for your last 14 years of touring, you have a million other hits you haven't played, just some suggestions, "Bourbon Street", "I burn for you", "Children's Crusade", "Spirits in a material world", "Wrapped Around your finger", "Love is the 7th wave", "Lazarus Heart", "It's probably me"? Mercury Falling songs on the next tour, "Hounds of Winter" and "Hung my Head". Seriously, if I hear BOTN/WTWIRD medley on the next tour, it'll convince me Sting has thrown in the towel and is sitting on his laurels. One last thing, if Vinnie is back to the energy he had on the TST album and tour, I suggest you keep him, but drop the rest! Final, final thought, send me an upfront copy of your next album, and I'll choose the songs you should release. Since Stewart and Andy are no longer around, there is no one capable of picking the obvious hits from your albums, it's simply stupid that Hounds of Winter was not your first single off your last album. I promise I won't change the time signature on your singles to sabotage your great music.

Unlike strumming a guitar, he really can't step out from behind the bass once in a while, the bass is the foundation to the music, just can't be done. I also prefer to hear and see him play the bass than someone else, it amazes me how he can do both so successfully. IMO, if Sting started acting like Rod Stewart on stage, I think I'll loose respect for him. I always admired his concerts for focusing on the music and not some stupid laser show or an over-choreographed dance show. Other singers need that to cover for the lack of depth in their music, Sting does not.

If Sting wants his album to be upbeat he should get back with stewart. No one I've ever heard is more upbeat than him. As far as producer, I always liked the police albums engineered by Nigel Gray at Surrey Sound Studios. The Police sound was best in my opinion on those first three albums which Nigel engineered.

I'm sure there are many dodgy characters that deal in bootlegs at these record fairs, but I really think the distinction must be made between those that sell bootlegged copies of official releases and those who sell live recordings that are not officially available. Anyone dealing in copies of official recordings is unarguably ripping-off the artist and deserves the consequences. Anyone dealing with live recordings and rare recordings is providing a legitimate service that the record companies do not provide to the dedicated fans because it is not considered financially viable. These live 'bootlegs', in my opinion, have no detrimental effect on the official release sales - if anything, they increase the fans interest in the artist which may boost official sales. I know there are many people on this list who actively seek out live recordings and unusual compilations that record companies do not provide. I personally have a number of live police recordings which I often listen to in preference to the official albums. However, owning these unofficial releases has never deterred me from buying an official release. I still find it difficult to believe that A&M took so long to release an official Police Live album, and when they did, it was engineered to such an extent that it loses much of the spirit of the Police in concert. The simple fact is that record companies are out to make money and they rarely consider what the dedicated fans want. Message In a Box is A&M's only saving grace because it made some rare recordings available on CD for the first time. However, when it comes to another release of a Police/Sting Compilation album containing nothing I haven't already got, I would much rather save my money and seek out an unofficial live recording. I believe that unless the record companies provide a better service to dedicated fans, they are in no position to criticise and prosecute the so-called 'bootleggers'. I'd like to know your opinions.

I've never been one on this list to pussy-foot around an issue. First, I was glad to read that article ('cause I have no sympathy for the guy in the article who got busted, friggin' loser, in my opinion). Secondly, pirating is just plain pathetic. Lastly, those who sell bootlegs for profit are just as pathetic. As for bootlegging live concerts--frankly, I hate professional bootleggers, and I am glad to hear that this guy was busted (not that he was a pro--but he was making a nice profit). People who do this nonsense for profit screw over legit fans (no 2cd live concert set is worth $40+; keep in mind blank cds cost a max of $3)--and more importantly the artists (it's not like these losers wrote the music, produced, it and should therefore profit from its sale; it's not like these guys turn around and reimburse the artist after a sale has been completed either--so the whole idea about distribution is pathetic as well). Thank God for cd-rs and cd-r drives; it screws over the professional bootlegger, drives down prices and increases a high quality, cheap supply (generation loss, when copies are done properly is very, very negligible; those who suggest otherwise and pathetically attempting to justify purchasing the $40-$60 bootleg found in a small local record shop, which in turn supports that industry). The best fans I have met give live bootleg concerts away for free/at cost (yes, there are some decent fans out there; if you go on a U2 email list, Wire, for instance, you'll find a guy named Modsavage who runs contests for free boots every week . . . I'm not on Wire; I'm on another U2 list made up of fans who are also willing to give stuff at cost) for the love of the music and for the sake of sharing the music with other fans. Bootlegs of live concerts do not bother me (as long an official release doesn't exist--but then it wouldn't be a bootleg; it would be a pirate--and pirating is absolutely wrong). Trading bootlegs of live concerts does not bother me either. But, those who sell bootlegs for profit do bother me (the internet just reeks of this type of behaviour). I am no doubt, raising the ire of a few of you on this list who practice this behaviour . . . Good.

It's funny because I don't know a lot of drummers you speak about, Neil Peart, Dave Abruzeeze or Roger Taylor. Advices are welcome. But if you want to hear how far drums can go, you should also listen to jazz drummers such as Jack DeJonnette, Tony Williams, Roy Haynes or Elvin Jones. Drums sing with them behind and nobody sounds nor swings like them. I don't speak about people like Dave Weckl or Dennis Chambers, they are monsters but to much "Drummers world championship", IMO. BTW, do you know if there's any recording of Sting with Marvin Smitty Smith, one of my favorite drummer (he plays phenomenal odd rythms on Steve Coleman recordings) ?

Mercury Falling already showed certain warning signs that the whole Hugh Padham, Vinnie, Kenny, Dominic thing wasn't working too well anymore. Hugh Padham in particular, seems to me to polish the music too much, draining out much of the energy that the songs have and that the musicians put into it, something that can only be appreciated when played live. It would be a great combination to have the band sounding loud and unrestrained together with perfect sounding studio-recorded singing from Sting. In contrast, Daniel Lanois seems to be able to let the sound flow and come through with all its power onto the cd (peter gabriel/U2). I don't know if his style and Sting's really combine though? -----Mensaje original----- De: The Webslinger <thetotalpackage@premiumproducts.com> Para: police@xmission.com <police@xmission.com> Fecha: Jueves, 08 de Abril de 1999 06:18 Asunto: (police) Another Pyramid and Hugh >I was at my local video store last night (Blockbuster) with my >girlfriend and as soon as I walked in the doors, I heard "Another >Pyramid" wafting over the speakers.

Hugh P has also produced Sting's two worst selling albums--The Soul Cages and Mercury Falling. Frankly, commercial sales has never implied quality; so this point is mute anyway (especially considering, as I recall, you prefer Nothing Like the Sun, which was NOT produced by Hugh). Also, speaking of sound quality and production, has anyone noticed that Sting's live material from Unplugged, The Soul Cages Concert, etc., sounds particularly bad (like there's no presence)? I don't think Hugh had much to do with the production of the live material . . . But if you compare the sound on those official live performances vs. Bring on the Night--the difference seems pretty obvious (I'm not comparing performances or set lists). I remember someone on this list explaining the poor sound quality before; I'd be interested to read the explanation again. And finally, just to clarify, I am not opposed to bootlegging, MP3s, VQFs, etc (I do think pirating is a far more serious offense). As the person who originally replied, I believe that most hard-nosed fans will buy the official release of their favourite artists on store shelved cds--that MP3s and bootlegs are not a deterrent (perhaps they are to the casual fan; I don't know; I can only speak for myself here). But I do think it's wrong to attempt to profit from live MP3s and bootlegs (the artist wrote the music and performed it; the professional bootlegger didn't). My belief is that fans should share this stuff with other fans for the love of the music and not for profit.

That's a very good observation, and basically sums up the same complaint I've had concerning his production (I think Hugh served his purpose in the 80s). On Mercury Falling, there's really only two songs I can stand listening to: The Hounds of Winter, and I Hung My Head. When I first heard, "You Still Touch Me", I wanted to vomit. But the live version on TFI Friday sounds vastly superior (rawer) in spite of the fact the arrangement didn't really change that much (the live version of Lithium Sunset, changed a lot on tour, as well as other songs).

Far from it. I think everyone on this list loves his contribution to music (whether it be with The Police or as a solo artist). There's no point in analyzing something one considers to be trite, pathetic, and worthless. For instance, I wouldn't spend my time wondering about whether or not Hugh Padgam is going to produce the next Spice Girls cd--and how that would affect their already "polished" sound. I'm hard on Sting because I like his music so much (I'm just as hard on all the other musicians I like; this goes in hand with my attitude of attempting not to look at celebs through rose-coloured glasses).

You might be right. Since you believe the production is "somewhat sterile", and since you suggest Sting probably wants it that way, one might be forced to conclude that you probably think Sting got it wrong this time. This begs the question to what extent does a producer affect the musician's music? Would it make a difference, then, if Sting, say, worked with an experimental guy like Brian Eno--or another U2 fave, Daniel Lanois? Would Sting argue with them and tell them to make his sound more "polished"--the way Hugh does? What producer would you like to see work with Sting?

This isn't true. William Orbit worked with Gabriel on parts for the _Us_ album. I think that the only part of their collaboration which made it to the disc was on one song - the bridge to "Love to Be Loved", if memory serves. Orbit has a track ("Paranoia, My Friend") on _Plus from Us_, a compilation CD put together on Real World that collects tracks from the various artists who contributed to the _Us_ album.

Loves to throw in syncopation from time to time. Vinnie Colaiuta - Rated "Modern Drummer" Best All-Around drummer last year (personally, I feel that they're are better ones). He's quite fluent in a variety of time signatures (e.g. 6/8, 5/4, 5/8, 7/8, 9/8) and has some sweet fills. Neil Peart (Rush) - A percussion god. Very technical, and *very* precise. And the man plays just as well live. John Bonham (Led Zeppelin) - Pretty good, one of the best classic rock drummers of all time, but Peart's techniques still beats some of his raw rhythms. Nick Mason (Pink Floyd) - I always liked that intro to "Money" that he does on the toms... but that's just me. :p Dave Abbruzzese (Pearl Jam) - I thought he was pretty damn good when I was in high school... but then I discovered Peart. :p Watch for when MTV reruns their Unplugged special; he's pretty fast, but I personally feel that he crashes too much. (Along with Abbruzzese is Soundgarden's Matt Cameron and Nirvana's Dave Grohl - I don't feel like writing separate stuff about them) As far as Sting and his music are concerned, I miss the Manu Katche days (...Nothing Like The Sun and The Soul Cages). He had style... although I could never figure out where some of his rhythms came from. Saw him on an SNL rerun about a week ago w/Peter Gabriel (his new musical home) as the musical guest and the man hasn't changed - they did a kick-ass version of "In Your Eyes." But I'm rambling now, and my $0.02 is just about spent. :p You know, if Sting ever decided to restructure his band again, I'd love to see Miller on guitar, Sancious on keyboards, and Manu Katche back on drums... but apparently, Sting has quarreled with some of them in the past, so chances are that the only place we'll hear their work is on the albums of the past.

I wouldn't be so bold as to say that Sting got it wrong though; The "somewhat sterile sound", as I put it, is not really a criticism, more an observation. There are many artists who create a much more clinical sound in the studio than in real life and Sting is just one of them. The music often sounds as though it is highly compressed, losing a lot of the live dynamics. Sting has often said that his albums are just blueprints of the songs which are developed further, and experimented with on tour. I generally buy the album, listen to it until it's worn out, see him live, seek out a live performance, listen to the live performance lots and rarely to the studio one. But that's just me! With regards to other producers, I have always liked what I have heard from John Leckie. Not, however, for Oasis, but rather for the work with The Dukes of Stratosphear (XTC in disguise) and Radiohead. I believe he manages to capture the dynamics of the music very well. Just my opinions.

I've had the opportunity to listen to a lot of my favourite music on a $10,000 system (not mine--couldn't possibly afford that much). However, your comment about Sony seems a bit misleading. Sony does make very good, very expensive, high-end systems (but once you get into that price range, it's probably better, admittingly, to go with a European brand). I'd imagine, within the next ten years, musicians will begin releasing stuff on DVD (because it's supposedly difficult to make digitial copies of commercial material due to the watermarks on the disc; also, the sound quality is better and you can fit more onto one), which will force everyone to pretty much upgrade their stereo systems anyway. Can you imagine listening to the Soul Cages in six channel digital sound? You could probably really appreciate (in spite of my criticism) Hugh's production and atmosphere on that cd.

I have nothing special against Sony nor Japanese brand at al. The point is that you can find better Hifi products regarding the sound quality for the same price whatever the price range except the lowest one perhaps (I think of Rega, YBA, Teac, Arcam, Nad, Creek, Apertura, Triangle, etc. that's the only brands I know, but there are many others). Go in a good Hifi shop with an auditorium, bring your favorite CD, and you'll be surprised of what you'll hear for reasonnable prices. Up to now DVD isn't as good as the CD and digital isn't a magic word for good sound restitution whatever the number of channels is. An incredible numbers of parameters should be taken into account, from the quality of the laser diode (in order to avoid bit reading mistakes) to the speakers and the cables. That's why a lot of home cinema systems are not very good : you can have speakers everywhere in the room and dolby XYZ surround + filters or whatever and what is the result ? The bass are completly unformed and too heavy and you hear no details. If you've got a good Hifi system, you'll hear the contact of the chord on the bass fret (I don't know why I take this example (-; !!), the breath of the singer, the mouth on the saxophone or the brush on the drum skin. And that's part of the music !! You know, when I hear remastered recordings of 60's jazz sessions, from Miles Davis or John Coltrane for example, I love the sound. It's still great !! So I think that even in 30 years, on a good hifi system, Soul Cages will still be a pleasure !!

There is a debate raging on right now about this amongst audiophiles, but in all honesty, I have yet to hear superior audio from a cd than from new dvd-audio (I appreciate what you're saying though). from http://www.stereophile.com/shownews.cgi?388 DVD players will offer better performance at lower prices due to the inherently better resolution of DVD's high sampling and bit rates. High performance on a budget will increasingly become the rule rather than the exception, as will the convergence of audio with home-theater systems as DVD becomes the dominant format---a process that will take years. Sony plans to roll out a $799 DVD carousel changer later this year. There's also an interesting article found at http://www.stereophile.com/shownews.cgi?420 Most insiders expect DVD-audio (or some variant) to become the defacto standard in the future (it may take awhile, though). Again, I think the Soul Cages would sound very, very good in this format.

I got 3rd row seats to DMB, and my eyes were fixed on Carter the whole time! I simply don't know how he does it. His rolls are so fast, his fill-ins are very intricate, and he has one of the fastest bass peddles around ( I've even heard rumors that he does it w/ one foot, no double bass peddle!). He was a joy to watch, and I love listening to him.

Yeah maybe Joey can do "amazing" things in his field, but I cant think of him playing Police songs, I think (in my very personal point of view), that he is not as versatile as Omar or Vinnie. The same thing is with Roger Taylor, I admire his job in Queen, but I think that he is just excellent in his own field. Yeah, Bonham is the "father" of all rock (and some jazz drummers) of this time period!, he is one of the most creative, versatile, and incredible drummers of all time!! Well if u mention your favorite ones (and I will always respect your points of view :-, well my first five drummers would be: MR.

If you have the time and/or the inclination, please use the letter below to state your objections. You can mail using their homepage at www.homedepot.com.

Dear Mr. Blank: I am a customer of yours and was dismayed to learn that you contract with suppliers who support the destruction of rainforests. Please immediately cancel all contracts with the three companies that threaten the Great Bear Rainforest: Sauder/Interfor, Doman and West Fraser. This includes ensuring that they are not being supplied with wood derived from these 3 companies' logging operation through wholesalers, distributors, remanufacturers or any other means.

"I feel very happy and content at the moment and I want to make a record that reflects that contentment, and didn't want to write about myself necessarily. So I made up stories about other people, sometimes frivolous, sometimes romantic, sometimes funny. I say the album [TST] isn't about me but I have a feeling that because I wrote it in this objective way, there's probably more about me on this record than I perhaps planned for." - Sting, "VH1 to 1", 1993 Love Is Stronger Than Justice (The Munificent Seven) This is a story of seven brothers We had a the same father but different mothers We keep together like a family should Roaming the country for the common good It came to pass one fateful day We found ourselves down Mexico way The town, the mayor, the PTA Pleading on their knees with us all to stay We'd only stopped for a few burritos But they told us of the trouble with los banditos A poor little town in need of aid My brothers and me had never been afraid The age of chivalry is not dead Lonesome nights in a cowboy bed There'd be a bride for every man Who chased away the evil gang Love is stronger than justice Love is thicker than blood Love is is stronger than justice Love is a big fat river in flood The outcome was predictable Our banditos were despicable Of blood we lost a dozen litres A small price to pay for las senoritas The town mayor was happy but his face was glum The maidens numbered only one But there weren't seven brides for seven brothers I knew I had to get rid of the others Love is stronger than justice Love is thicker than blood Love is stronger than justice Love is the big fat river in flood Mother told me I was the clever one The seventh son of a seventh son It all ended so happily I settled down with the family I look forward to a better day But ethical stuff never got in my way And though there used to be brothers seven The other six are singing in heaven Love is stronger than justice Love is thicker than blood Love is stronger than justice Love is a big fat river in flood - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

The production and distribution of cobblestone, at least to my knowledge, is not wrecking too many rainforests. Also, while I think Home Depot is part of the problem--the ones to really blame are probably Sauder/Interfor, Doman and West Fraser. However, it would put pressure on these companies, if Home Depot refused to sell those companies' products to the consumer market (and Home Depot, of course, is part of the problem, if they are selling those companies' products).

And without bootlegs, many fans would be unable to enjoy many excellent live concerts that would otherwise be inaccessible through major record labels. However, the people who go to concerts, record them, then sell them to KTS or some other bootleg company are doing so--not for the love of the music, but for profit. These people could just as easily, master the concerts onto a cd-r, and copy them freely for fellow fans at cost. Keep this in mind, when you are considering purchasing a $40+ cd concert from a small outlet music store (often they aren't selling cds anyway; they're selling cd-rs, and regardless, blank cds and cd-rs aren't very expensive) or from people on the internet: I can get gold cd-rs (Maxell) gold on gold (golds tend to be the best quality) for around $2 each Canadian funds at discount stores (like CostCo here in North America). At normal stores, I can find gold Mitsui (gold on gold) for about $2.60 + tax (Canadian funds). And I can buy single blank cd-rs at this price (I don't have to buy a spindle). So at the very maximum, the highest quality cd-rs (which tend to be gold on gold) cost $3 Canadian funds per blank cd. (right now, 67-68 cents US = $1 Canadian funds). Anyway, at the most, a 2cd set, including jewel cases is only worth $6 Canadian including taxes. A couple of black and white photocopies are worth maybe a $1 (maybe $2 for colour copies/scans--and this price estimate is very inflated). A bubble envelope costs maybe $1 max. Shipping a 2cd set (including a jewel case) to anywhere in the world is probably only $7 (airmail) max (for Canadians). So, at the most a 2cd-r set, is only worth about $15-$16 Canadian funds including taxes and shipping. Also, the only difference between blank audio and data cd-rs is the price. In Florida (USA), I think people are now taxed for purchasing "audio" cd-rs. So audio cd-rs probably cost $5 US there as opposed to $1.60-$2.90 US for the cd-rs labeled "data". There's no difference except the labeling. Record companies are annoyed with pirating, and so have forced the distinction between audio and data--to basically fool consumers. When fans on the U2 list that I'm on, wanted the Canadian limited edition Best of U2 1980-1990 2cd set (with the limited edition #s on the back), I went out and bought copies for them at cost and sent it to them at cost. I did not make any profit (nor should I have). I did it for the love of the music and sharing it with others (granted, this wasn't a bootleg). Also, there are two people on this list who have received free stuff from me, simply because I wanted to share music (please don't email me for requests). I feel that fans should look out for one another, not try to profit from them (or in the process, profit from the musician's work). That's only my opinion, of course, and again, I mean no offense.

And frankly, I kind of liked the story. Not because of the disturbing killing over a woman aspect but because it sounds so sweet and wholesome musically, like a square dance almost in the chorus, and then it turns out to be so terribly dark. Very much in the literary vein of Shirley Jackson ("The Lottery") or Flannery O'Connor ("A Good Man is Hard to Find").

Positively bone-chiling. I like both of these authors very much (The Lottery is a great short story). However, I think Sting don't think the lyrics were meant to be serious, dark and morbid; I believe the intention was a kind of quirky, dark humour (meant in a kind of off-beat fashion). When you juxtapose this song, with something like, say, "Moon Over Bourbon Street", I think the distinction in style becomes a little clearer.

For example, for U2 fans, this site is an invaluable guide: http://www.erols.com/breck/forlove/ Dave and Wendy's site offers a lot of front picture scans and set lists and Karel's site offers general comments about sound quality (and no, I wasn't targeting him; Karel seems to be a very nice person, and I hope he gets better soon.

But overall, there's no a whole lot of info on the web about Sting and Police boots. Which ones would you consider the best? I know the Chicago Sessions is a pretty big favourite.

Mine would have to be the Hatfield Polytechnic show. Even though it is by far the most bootlegged show out there, it is absolutley perfect. No offense to the Synchronicity Tour shows, but the earlier Police shows are where its at. Songs like Fallout, Next To You and Truth Hits Everybody disappeared towards the end of there career, and I hated that. All three sounded amazing along with So Lonely and Can't Stand Losing You. Also, during the Hatfield show, I thought Roxanne was absolutley flawless and Hole in my life (to me is a bad song) sounded great. It was also the first time Message in a Bottle had been played live which is a momentous occasion in itself. But the topper for me was probably this: "On the guitar, Andy Summers. On the drums, Stewart Copeland. This is Sting, good night Hatfield from the Police!" I have never heard Sting introduce himself with Stewart and Andy on any other show before. I find that to be quite important. I also liked the bootleg Evolution: Live in Melbourne from 1980. Intense version of So Lonely and the best live version of Deathwish. Enough rambling...

Actually, that's a very good observation (and I understand what you mean now, my apologies--I should have understood the first time). Although this isn't exactly related--but in terms of unexpected twists, Sting has done this in a couple of songs now. `Wrapped Around Your Finger' changes perpectives at the end with "You'll be wrapped around MY finger" instead of "I'll be wrapped around your finger" (and it too is almost sinister--"your servent is your master") And as I mentioned, a long, long time ago, `I'm So Happy . . .', the chorus line seems to alter or soften in terms of its meaning from the beginning to the end of the song--from a sense of despair to an eventual acceptance and understanding. I've never really cared for I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying, but the lyrics are direct and very good in my opinion.

I see the same thing in Every Breath You Take... sweet music, but the lyrics are a little funny, a little weird, a little *too* attentive. If you haven't read "A Good Man is Hard to Find," Flannery O'Connor, please do make time. It will remind you of this in that way. I think that this particular twisting is a hallmark of much of the literature of the 20th century... a very perfect something that is rotten at the core. Once can cite examples on examples of that theme, which is why I see Sting as a modern poet as much as a songcrafter. _________________ wee kimberleen "Love which is not madness is not love." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

I think it sounds pretty damn good, but maybe not quite soundboard. The Melbourne show I got from Karel and all of his CD-R's are soundboard quality, I believe. You are right though. I think everyone show put their reviews of different bootlegs so no one else gets screwed by spending lots of cash for a crappy recording.

"Juegos" = games, and "Dos Armas Humeantes" literally means "two smoking arms (weapons)", (I think, please correct me if I'm wrong!) so what *exactly* are "trampas"? The exact translation is "Games, Traps and Two Smoky Weapons" I have to ask. I believe the title "Lock, Stock, And 2 Smoking Barrels" refers to parts of a rifle. WHY would the title be so different in another language? Don't people in non-english speaking lands have words for the lock, stock and barrels of guns? Gang~ Swew was at one of our local radio stations (in Minneapolis) last week, and he said that the band all got together and recorded audio CD liner notes for an upcoming 3 CD set. He said it was great because they could talk about "what guitar Andy was playing or what foul mood Sting was in." I haven't heard anything about this set, so I'm wondering what will be on it. It should be neat to hear the ol' boys all together around one mic though. ====================================================================== The only things I know about this are?/is that all 3 guys were in the same room at the same time for this (which I think is a major accomplishment) and that Stew was not actually in Minneapolis, but was on the phone. This station also played a recording of Stew saying something like "I'd love to get back together with them because that really was where it was at, but why should I now that I've got so much going on?" This is not verbatim, but just gives you the general idea. I may be able to give an accurate quote in a few days. <html> <img src="http://members.carol.net/~dsymbor/images/mitsu.gif"> </html> Gary Schmitz - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

He did kill his brothers. I guess I 've just been listening to the song blindly (or should I say deafly). I never put those two lines together. When I listen to the song, my mind tends to focus on the country sound (I still can't believe he attempted country) instead of the lyric's meaning. I really like the breakdown at the end of the song. Taking this song from the country beat to a post-modern jazz sound is just so Sting! Didn't Sting call this song a Spaghetti Western on some VH1 special? Anyway, I'm semi-fan of country. I liked what he did with I'm so happy... and I thought the duet he did with Toby Keith was fun to listen to! I mean, you don't often hear Sting on a local country radio station!

This album of Scott's (the jazzfusion allround hornblower, who did a lot work with Steely Dan, amongst others) contains two versions of We'll Be Together. I myself was favorably impressed with them. I wonder what others thought of them. Did anybody else hear these covers? I usually am not one for covers. Artist tend to choose songs they revere, and thus can hardly improve on. I think the clue to a good cover is a) recognizing the potency of the composition and b) seeing where the original fails in developing that composition into a good recording. Amongst fans - and also by Sting himself, I believe - We'll Be Together is considered a weak song, but after hearing Tom Scott's renditions I think the opposite is true. (I did like it already in the original version, I admit). I don't know why Sting himself was disheartened with it, by I think it has more to do with the production than the composition. I think the original was too mechanic; We'll Be Together is basically a funksong I think, it should roll like a heavy boulder from a mountain. Anyway, obviously Tom Scott didn't think the song was bad at all. Both Tom Scott's version are funky to the bone - the word 'steamy' applies. The first version of "We'll Be Together" is a vocalized one, with JT Taylor singing (also having done the vocal arrangement). The second a slightly faster instrumental version, with Scott doing both the lead and backing bits on horns. JT Taylor does a very fine job on the first one - although I really would have liked to hear Sting do this version. Or maybe even Michael Jackson, 'cos I think it's a song that's perfect for the King of Pop. I love the ending (also on the original) where the instrumentation almost totally disappears, and there remain only several vocal lines, after a while complemented by a decending bass. The only thing that can be said against Scott's versions is that maybe they are a bit too slick. (As is almost everything on the GRP label). But beside that, a very good cover version in my book. Does anyone know any other good cover versions of Sting/Police songs? (And I don't mean that Puffy type of garbage). - Auke Subservient member of the Egg-flip society. - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Or is it Memorex? Date: 15 Apr 1999 18:11:16 -0400 (Memorex, by the way, makes pretty bad blank media, in my opinion.) With the advent of "click tracks", sequencers, and computers, does anyone know the extent to which Sting's modern live performances are still truly "live"? For example, during the MTV music awards (I can't remember the year) in which Sting performed If I Ever Lose My Faith, the opening (right before the lights went up) was obviously not live (a sequencer must have been playing a loop). I know that Sting doesn't lip synch and that his band does play live, but I do seem, on occasion, to notice that some instruments are playing, and no one on stage could possibly be playing them. I am aware, for example, that many stadium acts, including U2, use sequencers to emulate extra instruments that would otherwise require more musicians on stage. Also, if the band plays along to the click track (which is usually heard in the each band member's earpiece), the band can pretty much stay in synch. Also, this adds the extra "safety" of being able to press a button, if one gets tired of playing his or her instrument, and the computer/sequencer will take over (while the musician goes to get a drink or fool around with the audience or takes a breather). This is pretty evident in bootlegs that have "stolen" the FM broadcast that is transmitted to each band member's earpiece (this is especially true amongst a few U2 Popmart "earpiece" bootlegs). Live stadium bands have it pretty lucky now, I'd say. I don't think The Police ever had that kinda safety (probably not until the Synchro concerts).

Its the side of Sting someone like Stewart Copeland would know well but fans would rarely see. I find it interesting for the fact that at that moment you can see the drive that went towards acheiving success. Anger focused into action. I'm interested in anyone elses comments on this event. Copeland I think described stings professionalism by the event saying he managed to have a full on fight with the person whilst still entertaining the 20 000+ crowd. But during all this you can still hear the chorus of "de do do do" being sung .

Then later it started to bore me more and more and nowadays I sometimes tend to skip it when I play the record. But I must say, now with all of you discussing it, I might start playing it more. Now to the lyrics: I have always had a feeling that this song was more autobiographical than Sting likes to admit ("It's just stories I made up blah blah"). How about this: We have a gang of men, a fighting unit. They need each other to accomplish their task. They are successful, but then it dawns to the smartest of the gang that the big prize can not be shared. So they quarrel, the smart guy wins, but remains alone with his prize. Souds familiar? Of course, Sting will always deny this analogy to his own path to world fame. Maybe it was a subconscious thing... What do you think?

For example, the two last times I saw Andy in concert, it was in a small club in Paris, and each time he asked the public if the sound wasn't too loud. He said that he doesn't hear very well anymore because of all the Police concerts and that we should tell him if it was too loud (which was the case imo). So he was wearing some ear-protections. I think that they wear protections that are sculpted for their ears. You can do that, it isn't too very expensive. Perhaps it can include a microphone. Vincent PS : For drummers, you've got the VicFirth headphones with or without microphones. The version with microphones is horribly expansive. The other one is good and confortable.

When in concert, things are extremely loud! True it's loud for US. But the reason it's loud for us is because all the amplifiers are pointing at US. The fact is, often, even in loud shows, if the monitors that the musicians use aren't working correctly, one or more of the people onstage won't be able to hear their part of the performance to know how they're doing. That's one of the reasons sound engineers are sooooo important! _________________ wee kimberleen "Love which is not madness is not love." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

The last time they sponsored Elton John, they had special seats reserved for the entire tour. With the upcoming album and also the new Disney soundtrack, this is obviously going to be a big year or two for Sting and AmEx knows it.

Also, Sting, if you're listening, on the next tour, please drop the "When the World/Bring on the Night" medley for something new, I have been hearing it for your last 14 years of touring, you have a million other hits you haven't played, just some suggestions, "Bourbon Street", "I burn for you", "Children's Crusade", "Spirits in a material world", "Wrapped Around your finger", "Love is the 7th wave", "Lazarus Heart", "It's probably me"? Mercury Falling songs on the next tour, "Hounds of Winter" and "Hung my Head". Seriously, if I hear BOTN/WTWIRD medley on the next tour, it'll convince me Sting has thrown in the towel and is sitting on his laurels. One last thing, if Vinnie is back to the energy he had on the TST album and tour, I suggest you keep him, but drop the rest! Final, final thought, send me an upfront copy of your next album, and I'll choose the songs you should release. Since Stewart and Andy are no longer around, there is no one capable of picking the obvious hits from your albums, it's simply stupid that Hounds of Winter was not your first single off your last album. I promise I won't change the time signature on your singles to sabotage your great music.

Supposed becuase Dave and Wendy said the Outlandos rep. said that His only confirmed show was for New Year's. Anyway, I finally found the official info on the JVC page and here's the stuff: -Tickets go on sale May 2nd -The show is titled Kenny Kirkland: A Musical Celebration -It will feature Branford, Jeff "Tain" Watts, Sting and Harry Connick Jr., and others T.B.A. -Ticket prices are $50.00, $40.00 and $20.00 I have a feeling that even though Sting hasn't "confirmed," he would probably make the effort to come and pay homage to his longtime personal and professional friend.

Combs, 29, who surrendered to police voluntarily, was released from Manhattan criminal court after posting $15,000 in bail. Combs, who did not enter a plea, faces up to seven years in prison if convicted on the charges of assault and criminal mischief. He is to return to court on June 24. ``He will be vindicated in court when the time comes,'' said defense lawyer Jay Goldberg, refusing to discuss the allegations against Combs. Assistant District Attorney Ina Scherl said Combs and two others struck Universal Records executive Steve Stoute with a champagne bottle, a chair and a telephone at his midtown office. She said Stoute's arm was believed to be fractured. The other two individuals have not been apprehended. A company employee found Stoute, 28, in his office ``crouched in the fetal position,'' Scherl said. She added that Stoute was ``trying to protect his head and had his hands over him and said he couldn't see who struck him.'' When police arrived, they found him lying on his back, his face and arm covered in blood. He was taken to a hospital and released to his private physician. In seeking a high bail, the prosecutor told the judge that Combs had been convicted in 1996 of criminal mischief in a plea deal after a robbery. The New York Daily News on Friday quoted a music insider as saying Combs and Stoute had fallen out over a music video in which the rap star is nailed to a cross and says, ``I think I like this.'' After the taping, Combs reportedly changed his mind. ``But it just premiered on MTV with the scene still in there, and Puffy felt that was Steve's fault,'' the Daily News's source said. Combs is the CEO of Bad Boy Entertainment, the leading producer of hip-hop records. His own rap album, ``No Way Out,'' has sold five million copies. In January, a judge ruled that Combs and Dwight ``Heavy D'' Myers and the state of New York shared responsibility for a Dec. 28, 1991, stampede that left nine people dead and 29 others injured at an AIDS charity event at the City College of New York. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I popped in the Soul Cages on my dad's 1960's Sansui reciever and during 'Why Should I Cry For You' I kept hearing the water drop sound effect (that repeats during the whole song) appear to move back and forth (not right and left). I always that it was a pretty neat trick, but I had to stand in just the right spot for it to happen. Anyone else had the same or similar experiences? There is a "sweet spot" where the q-sound effect is best. This spot is an equal distance directly in front of your speakers and in the exact center of the 2 as your speakers are distant from one another. (Confusing, huh? I didn't explain that very well.) If your speakers are 6 feet apart, the sweet spot is 6 feet in front and in the center. I assume this spot could move using your balance control. The far and away best example of q-sound is on the song "Vogue" on the soundtrack from Dick Tracy "I'm Breathless: Music From And Inspired By The Film Dick Tracy" Q-sound is now being used on several home and portable audio units including boomboxes and vcr's. I can't say I heard this new type of Q-sound, so I can't say if it's any good. I don't specifically hear the drip effect move to and fro, but I can hear it. I don't have a truly(?) Hi-Fi stereo, though, just a $1000 Sony unit. <html> <img src="http://members.carol.net/~dsymbor/images/mitsu.gif"> </html> Gary Schmitz - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

I would imagine that Sting, James Taylor, Madonna, and Elton would be more than happy to have their songs recorded and given away as a once a year deal to benefit the rainforest. Perhaps the biggest fact is that they do not have ownership of the songs or publishing rights. However, even a mini compilation of the songs by the artists who do own them would be remarkable. They could even use it as a means of experimentally testing new recycled or more environmentally sound packaging.

After a few more listens however, even at the slowed down speed, there are intonations that are clearly not Sting. However, having listened to stinglemon many times, I still could not be certain it wasn't him.

Sting, at the time, never forgave Stewart.

I'm very interested who will say the final word! As I wrote in the past - when I'd heard that song for the first time I really thought it was Sting. I've those two files downloaded now and listen it and listen - but I still think it is not Sting. There is something "strange" in Stinglemon version but I do not know what it is. Does exist complete song of Sting version? Cheers Winca - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

If I don't get at least 10 responses, my teacher will force me to use a different subject for my essay, so I'm counting on you dudes. Personally, the only 80's punk or metal groups I give a crap about are the Police(of course), Def Leppard, Billy Idol, and Van Halen. I'd prefer all responses be sent to my email address, and not posted on the list. It would make it much easier. Peace, and y'all have a fine Stingy week!

Hilary followed: >I saw that also, but it was on "Before they were stars" this weekend on >VH1. In the old book THE POLICE: A VISUAL DOCUMENTARY, Sting comments on this commercial. It was the very early part of 1978 and the commercial was for Triumph bras: "I had to grope Joanna Lumley's tits." Granted, VH-1 didn't show the entire commercial, but *I* certainly didn't see any "groping." I should have remembered *that*! Sting was also in a Brutus Jeans ad around the same time: "Remember, with all the pinball machines? There was this really randy chick flashing her tits at me for six hours of filming. It nearly drove me mad!" Hmmmm....I'm beginning to detect a theme here! Rather than milk it for all it's worth, I think it might be wiser to move on. Actually, it sounds suspiciously like these two are the same commercial. Perhaps someone who actually saw both of them waaaaaaaaay back when can verify this.

It has the working title of "The Lovers" and will be released in October. Sting has been recording for most of the year in his Tuscan villa, on the home studio he transported from his Wiltshire mansion. Five tracks are fully mixed, among them two ballads. The album, which Sting is producing himself, features the same musicians who played on "Mercury Falling" and contributions from guests including Talvin Singh, who remixed Madonna last year, and Algerian rai singer Cheb Mami. Insiders say the album marries a predominantly eastern flavour to dance beats and hooky pop tunes. "The music's quite intricate but there's no posing involved," said one. "It's not world music. It's quite modern and diverse, he's definitely broadened his horizons." Several of the songs took shape while Sting was demoing at the old A&M in-house studio in Los Angeles at the start of this year. He plans to tour the new album in November."

"On the album GHOST IN THE MACHINE the track entitled 'One World' was particularly significant because it marked Sting's first attempt at looking at the world outside his own emotional experiences. 'The sooner we think in terms of one world as opposed to the three that we have artificially created, the better we are going to solve our problems.'" -Wensley Clarkson, _Sting: The Secret Life of Gordon Sumner_, p. 138. "One World (not three)" One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us It's a subject we rarely mention But when we do we have this little invention By pretending they're a different world from me I shed my responsibility One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us The third world breathes our air tomorrow We live on the time we borrow In our world there's no time for sorrow In their world there is no tomorrow One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us Lines are drawn upon the world Before we get our flags unfurled Whichever one we pick It's just a self deluding trick One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us I don't want to bring a sour note Remember this before you vote We can all sink or we all float 'Cos we're all in the same big boat One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us It may seem a million miles away But it gets a little closer everyday It may seem a million miles away But it gets a little closer everyday It may seem a million miles away But it gets a little closer everyday One world...

Also, it says that he's into eastern music now, pretty unexpected. Well, he is into yoga and various things like that... so the eastern music bit doesn't surprise me at all. And a lot of it *is* fascinating. And some of it is *very* soothing. Although I'm starting to think that he means "The Lovers" in an Eastern kind of way. Very Kama Sutric or Zen or even in a Japanese or Chinese way. Perhaps a little of all of it. He's worked with South American and Caribbean influences among MANY others, time to try something new and different, right? _________________ wee kimberleen "Love which is not madness is not love." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

I realized this might very well be what Sting is thinking about for his = new album! As far as I could find out, the card has something to do with Yin and = Yang,=20 but it is also about having to choose between two different paths and = for that choice it is best to follow your intuition. I think it is also referring to the path of spiritual growth. Anyone on the list who can tell us more about this card? If this is indeed what the title of the new albus is referring to, I = think no one has to be afraid that it will be an album with 'just' = lovesongs.

It is something most of us have to do at some time or another,= whether giving a speech at a wedding, proposing a toast or simply making a point at= a meeting. How much easier it is if you know that you won't blush, stammer or literally be rendered speechless. Mitch Murray can lend a hand. He's= something of a self-help guru who can justifiably claim to have given Sting a leg up= to stardom. The Tyneside-born singer provides an enthusiastic foreword to Mr Murray's= new book, which follows three volumes of useful one-liners. Sting says he based his entire songwriting career on Murray's "first masterpiece", How To Write A= Hit Song, which he read in 1965 at the age of 14. Mitch, you may be aware, was= an ace songwriter in the 1960s and '70s, a hit-maker for Gerry and the= Pacemakers and others. Sting wondered, on being handed the synopsis of this book, if Mitch could turn him into an after-dinner speaker. "I know from bitter experience that singers, like footballers, should never speak," he writes. "The magic= and illusion that music and skill with a football can create is instantly and cruelly dispelled as soon as one of us opens our mouths."=20 Expressing something of the disillusionment that set in after he started speaking out against rainforest destruction, Sting says more trees have been burned in the last 10 years than ever before. "I will still warble on at length on the subject when prompted, but no one seems to take a blind bit of= notice." Murray's advice is delivered in avuncular fashion (he even refers to himself as Uncle Mitch) which you won't find too irritating if you are best man in a fortnight's time. His main argument is that the fear of speaking is, in= fact, a whole bunch of fears. In the book he strives to break them down into manageable segments but won't eradicate fear totally since some butterflies are needed to provide adrenalin for "that extra bit of magic". He concludes, inevitably, with one-liners from his "very large database". Some are decent and some, frankly, should remain mouldering on the floppy disk. But with these books you take and discard according to whim. There's a lot of advice worth taking."

Anyone who knows Karel even in the slightest (just by email as I do) could surely tell without even having him explain that the message did not come from him. Still pathetically sad that some idiot has nothing better to do than break into people's accounts and send harassing messages. I could think of doing much better things such as sleeping, or eating, activities which are apparently above the level of resoning of our ignorant violator.

Date: 23 Apr 1999 09:15:11 -0400 Ou! This is a big one! VERY cool song. It has always been a BIG favorite! And, yeah, as a drummer, this one always blew my mind. At the time Stewart said that this was his best drumming ever on record. I concur. He said they all talked it through and then just jumped in the studio and hit it on the first take, so it had this great energy and spontinaety. Fun fun song! Great reggae rhythm. That and Roxanne are about the only songs I'd rather listen to from the albums rather than live. Oh, I like the live versions of One World, but I just love the one from Ghost SO much. -MatPlanet - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

This really shows the Police's skills as musicians, because they got this on the first take! Sting's bass is absolutely amazing and that bass line he put together is so clever. Stewart's drums are fantastic as usual and I love his bass drum work, and his neat hi-hat stuff. I never really liked live versions of this song, because I think the backup singers on the Synchronicity Tour ruined everything. The version Sting did with Ziggy Marley was okay, but nothing beats the original. This song absolutley rocks!

The author is someone who obviously dislikes Sting as a solo artist and prefers The Police. The onion tends to be a joke site (and so the article is meant to point fun at Sting, in my opinion). (I happen to like The Police and Sting as a solo artist--with perhaps the exception of Mercury Falling and the odd song here and there. However, I understand and appreciate the author's criticism.)

The tarot card 'the lovers' has lots of different meanings, like each tarot card; when you read tarots you have to combine the meaning of different cards together, so the meaning of each card depends also on the other cards on the table; it's not very easy to understand, or even explain, but, as a tarot reader, there is something I feel when I see the cards on the table, while reading for someone, something unexplicable, coming from the cards themselves; and also everything depends on which subject you are 'reading' about. Of course the lovers has different faces of a sentimental meaning. In Sting case, I guess the tarot card 'the lovers' could be considered as a subject for a song, not the subject for the whole album, but who knows... Maybe one day I'll read tarots to Sting, so I can see if the Police are coming back together..... ........'one day two guys will come to your door...and you will join again the perfect triangle' but in this case I don't think I'll need to read tarots to myself to see how my finances will fall down!!!

Well, here's my "final word" for this thing. Just listened the "Stings" version, and in my opinion it is definitely NOT Sting. It sounds like Sting in the beginning, but the rest of the song doesn't. And the biggest thing that hits to my ear is the way this singer uses his/hers vibrato.(I'm also a singer myself) It's very different than Stings, much "bigger" and vider. Sting has a very "small" vibrato and he doesn't even use it in most of his (older) songs. And when I listened the clip few times more, it didn't even sound like Sting anymore to me... But it would be nice to hear the whole song, even though I'm pretty positive that it hasn't anything to do with Sting... :) Hear you!

Date: 24 Apr 1999 13:00:40 +0100 From Rolling Stone's site... Never let war get in the way of a good soccer match. In fact, let it be an excuse. In order to help raise money for Kosovar refugees, Britain's high-profile stars are donning their tube socks and lining up on the field. On May 19, Sting, Noel Gallagher, the Spice Girls, All Saints and Dave Stewart will assemble at Tottenham Hotspur's stadium to play an all-star match for Kosovo. Not only will the luminaries kick about a football, fans will be treated to a half-time event featuring an acoustic set by Sting, Stewart and his erstwhile partner in the Eurythmics (and in marriage), Annie Lennox. Promoters hope to raise at least $1.6 million for the refugees. Speaking of Sting, he just summoned veteran producer-engineer Hugh Padgham, who's currently working on the new 311 record, to do some knob turning on his latest project...

I study tarot a bit too. I think I can explain a little here about the tarot, too. A tarot deck has 78 cards in it. 22 are called "Major Arcana" and are individuals (such as the Fool the Magician) or embodiments (such as the Sun or the Moon). The Lovers is one of these. Then there are 56 "Minor" arcana which are organized like a regular deck of cards into four suits. They contain the numbers, one through ten, and four face cards (King, Queen, Knight and Page). Different tarot readers use the cards in many different ways, but the idea is that the person who is having the reading done is in control of the cards. That person is supposed to think of his or her question while shuffling the deck and then the reader lays the cards down in a pattern and reads them. It is usually considered significant even when a card is right-side-up or upside-down to the readee. Anyway, the cards are like aspects of the question, so they change in relation to the person asking the question and the nature of the question itself. Hence multiple meanings. Although different tarot decks have different pictures on the cards, there are some elements that are constant. The card "The Lovers" usually depicts a naked man and a naked woman overlooked by an angel who is usually blindfolded or has his eyes closed. Behind the angel is a sun. There will be trees, and often the various parts of the picture are intended to make the couple appear to be Adam and Eve. The RIder Tarot deck, for example (a popular set) has a tree of fruit with a serpent wound around it. Again, though no description of a single card can be absolute, the ideals of the card "The Lovers" is love, attraction, beauty. When the card is reversed (upside down) it is more like unrequited love: failure, foolishness. Hope this helps everyone see how nebulous this is... and kudos to Giovanni for his excellent description of just how nebulous the cards can be! ________________________ wee kimberleen "Love which is not madness is not love." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

I hope he and Sting don't repeat their MF style and over produce the album by washing away the life and energy in the songs. To me the best production on a Sting song was Fragile on NLTS which was produced by Neil Dorfsman and Sting. Best production by Hugh was definitely TST. BTW, what exactly is production? The reason I like the way Fragile is put together is really the mix in the song but isn't the mix the job of the sound engineer? My feeling of production is the overall feel or mix of the instruments/vocals in a song but then again, I thought this was the job of the engineer or maybe the producer is the engineer's boss? I dunno. Who knows, maybe the blame lies solely on Sting for creating the washed down sound on some of the albums. This is why as someone else posted, I mainly listen to the live stuff as soon as one becomes available, the album begins to collect cobwebs. Obviously there are also improved arrangements in the live versions.

If I remember correctly, he was in India for one of those benefits to save the rainforests. One line I found amusing while reading on the Stingchronicity web site about Sting's time in India was Sting's reply to a reporter's question about a kind of clothing they wear over there, a sheet-like thing that one wraps around oneself. The reporter asked Sting how he could answer the call of nature while wearing such a garmet. Sting replied something like "Which call of nature? As for the first one, I simply pull it aside and go. As for the other...well, I don't really know. I haven't tried it with my wife while wearing this thing yet."

Wasn't The soul Cages mixed in France? Le Studio Guillaume Tell I believe? I think this sounds promising. Plus the fact that he recorded out of the comfort of Lake House (although I'm sure his place in Tuscany must be pretty nice) and collaborated with an Algerian singer. Change is good. Someone posted an article that said that he used the same musicians as Mercury Falling. But that can't be true. The keyboard player would have to be different and didn't the drummer from NLTS record with him this time (his name completely escapes me right now.) Anyway, this change of pace is good (although I'm disappointed to hear that Hugh P is going from 311 to Sting. I'm definitely going to the Kenny Kirkland tribute. Is anyone else going and does anyone know what the best way is to get tickets. Should I show up at the box office or call? Fred. P.S. I went to my friend's wedding over the weekend, and their first dance was Fields of Gold. It was a beautiful moment. It was also my sister's first wedding dance.

I had a good time in Cincinnati.It was especially neat for me because at almost every place I went,there was something that had to do with Sting or the Police.When I went to the Reds game on Saturday,they played "Spirits In The Material World" and a few other songs over the loudspeaker before the game.I thought that was cool.And when I went to a mall,they were playing "When We Dance" on the radio.I finally got Nada Como El Sol and Fortress.Well,I thought I'd just share this with you all.See ya! ~Mollie~ ~Syn^Chronicity_II~ ICQ:14952490 ~It may seem a million miles away but it gets a little closer everyday~ - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

I was raised in the American South, another place where religion is a key part of the lifestyle, albeit a Fundamentalist Protestant religion. To this day, I feel guilty when I don't go to Church on Sunday. So I can relate to how Sting feels this pull throughout his life in spite of the fact that, with a divorce under his belt, he's probably not Catholic any more. > It was midnight, midnight at noon This seems to refer to the day on which Christ was crucified and the sky went black in the middle of the day. Atheistic scholars say that there was a solar eclipse on that day. > Nobody knew, nobody knew the time > Elegant d=E9butantes smiled > Everyone fought for dimes > Newspapers screamed for blood > It was the best of times Very indicative of the times then, too, as much as any other. "nobody knew the time" could easily mean that no one realized that the Old Testament prophecies were happening. Very few did, after all. > Sometimes they tie a thief to the tree Crucifixion, of course, was not always done with nails. They'd usually tie you up there and leave you several days to suffocate very, very slowly. If you don't know how this happens, get two friends, one on either side of you, to each stnad on one foot and hold your arms to the sides and slightly above your head in the style of crucifixion. Then hang. See how hard it is to breathe? Then, if you were taking too long to die, they would break your legs so you couldn't push up on them to breathe anymore without excruciating pain. Eventually, in the event of a holiday coming up, they'd stab you. Traditional Christian pictures of Calvary/Golgotha show only three crosses, but it is likely that there were rows and rows of them, as in The Life of Brian. It happened that there were thieves on either side of Christ that day. So again, very allusive of the day of Crucifixion. _________________ wee kimberleen "Love which is not madness is not love." - To unsubscribe to police, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe police" in the body of the message.

Is it because I'm catholic and very critical of my religion? I don't know.... It's a clever song. I particularly like this passage: "The government saved a dying planet When popular icons failed." Does this mean that Sting feels his efforts to save the rainforest were a failure so far and that he's placing his hope in governments. I doubt it ... but that part always makes me smile.

I know this was mentioned a while ago, but I only just listened to both songs together. Hmmm, I only noticed the similiarity in the very beginning of BOTN. When the tone of the music changes (when the lyrics begin), the link is lost for me. Perhaps, it's those few flat-sounding notes from Sting which throw off the similarity for me? ;) "Good-byyyyyyeee!" Teri Sometimes, the moon is eclipsed by the sun.

I know for a fact that Sting isn't a saint, but this sounds a little over the top even for him. I know for a fact that the guy is paranoid about catching AIDS or something. I don't see him hiring a four or five prostistutes and running that kind of risk.

He was playing the nephew of the Harkonen Baron who tried to kill the hero of the saga, "the Kwisatz Haderach" as far as I can remember. The spice melange gave the eternal life...

And is it something about New York that suddenly turns him into a womanizer? I know he goes to strip clubs, and I don't really understand why, but prostitutes?

(Sting likes going to Scores when in NYC...just in case you ever want to check the place out.) Lots of men--not just Sting--like to frequent strip clubs, but that certainly doesn't turn them into womanizers. And I have lived in or around NYC my entire life, and believe me, categorizing NYC as a sort of "heathen town" is ridiculous. Take a walk down 42nd Street nowadays.

A member of this list hijacked my account to post a stupid rumor about a reunion. At the time,I didn't reveal who it was, since it was a (relatively) harmless prank, although I did receive enough Spam about the post to feed a small nation. I don't view Karel's situation as harmless, however, and I hope steps are being taken to insure that this doesn't happen again. Also, here's my two cents about the upcoming Sting album: To each their own! Just because we're all fans doesn't mean we have to like everything he does. I don't! And I personally hope the new album is ALL gooey love songs! In light of all the unhappiness in the world today, let's strive for peace, a little bit at a time.

By the way, Sting has said in interviews that he's never met a prostitute he didn't like (and he does believe in legalized prosititution). He then followed that up by saying he's not "buysexual" (I'd take that comment at face value). (and the greatest amount of women he's slept with in one week was 5, as I recall; it's been awhile since I read that article) Much as I criticize Sting from time to time, I too, have serious problems believing that hotel story.

Showbiz One of the biggest charity events of the 1980s is going to have a sequel. Live Aid, an all day charity concert which took place in London and Philadelphia on July 13, 1985 is reportedly to be followed up this fall by Net Aid. The 1985 concert raised $100 million for starving Africans. Net Aid is set to take place October 9, 1999 at venues in three cities - Wembley Arena, London, Giants Stadium, New York and the Opera House, Geneva. Like Live Aid before it, Net Aid is being arranged to fight global poverty. The event is being organized by the United Nations Development Fund and Cisco Systems, a technical company, with Sir Harvey Goldsmith - who promoted Live Aid - producing. Goldsmith told the BBC, "It's a shift from just doing a knee-jerk concert to raise money, because this is an on-going. The concert itself is just a catalyst to get people to understand, to promote the opportunity to people to get involved and get involved in this internet site". He added: "A call to action is what we're trying to get to". This being the information age, Net Aid will take full advantage of the Internet with a special web site set up to broadcast all three concerts. Viewers will also be able to make cash pledges through the internet site. As with Live Aid, the concerts will also be broadcast through convential methods (ie. television) as well. There will also be conventional telephone lines set up for pledges. As far as the lineup goes, no one has been confirmed, but a number of names have been bandied about by various media outlets. Those names include Lauryn Hill, Celine Dion, Sting and U2. Bono, U2's vocalist, is founder of Jubilee 2000, which is set up to eradicate third world debt by 2000, so there's a good chance they will perform. The most curious name mentioned is being reported out of Australia. Online e-zine Undercover is reporting that 'organizers' has suggested George Michael to reform Wham! for the event. Tickets for the London show at Wembley Arena go on sale mid-June. No word on whether Live Aid/Band Aid founder Bob Geldof will be approached to take part. So Georgie is reforming Wham???? Good fertilizer to sprout Police rumours, no doubt.
