The Police

I got tickets to see them in London England, but the reports I'm getting about their shows are a little tepid. I've also seen some footage of some of the recent shows in the US and Canada... I don't know they just don't seem the same...yes I know they're older and all that but they somehow seem to be holding back. Sting seems so much more pompous and there doesn't seem to be the same fire in his belly.

Has anyone been to see them yet...what did you think...should I sell my tickets??

Go make some money and scalp your tix.
If you want I'll send u a show, so you can say "UGH!"
Truth of the matter, the Police weren't really that good.

Sad, because I really wanted to see them.

I LOVE The Police,but am afraid to see them live.I have a feeling that Sting is just cashing in. I didn't like the tone of that RS interview/feature.I felt bad for Andy and Stewart;They sounded like they were following him around like he is Fonz and they are Richie and Ralph.

just heard a review from a co-worker...


Sting's son's band SUCKED and they opened.

The jazzified most songs so they ended all sounding similiar.

Glad I saved my money.

I saw them in Oakland in June. They were weak. A few moments of brilliance, but overall very sloppy. BUT it was only the 5th show of the tour. I have no doubt the show will improve significantly with time.
