So the bigger question about The Police Reunion tour is, Will Sting play solo material?

Well if I had to guess or even request, i would say no solo material at all. True he has had a HUGE solo career, which has even overshadowed the Police work, but for that very reason there shouldnt be one Sting solo song in the set, and i hope im not the only one that feels this way. My thought is if you wanna hear "Russians" or "Desert Rose" then go see Sting on one of his solo tours, I dont think Stewart and ANdy are going to sit back and learn Stings solo stuff, they are going to play Police songs and rehearse Police songs, why learn Sting songs they are never gonna play again. His solo has no place on this tour.

Nah, I dont' think they will play solo stuff. It's a Police tour after all not a Sting tour. 'sides, if I were Stewart or Andy and Sting was like, "Hey, let's play 'Desert Rose" I'd like be like, "heh, go fuck yourself!"

Add to that I don't think they really have the instrumentation to pull most of those tunes off anyway.
