wombatboter Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 It's a funny thing but my three favourite bands all star bassplayers who sing though the music is totally different : McCartney (Beatles), Level 42 and The Police... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin_lindsay Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Fabulous video. I've actualky got that Tokyo gig on DVD. It's great seeing the songs performed live as a 3 piece again. Sting still sounds great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangur Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 [quote name='Grand Wazoo' timestamp='1377945457' post='2193877'] Oh what a disappointment, as I clicked on the link hoping to see some decent Police-Camera-Action videos of car chases across the american highways, police being run over and cars being smashed, instead all I got was an ageing Gordon Sumner obviously run out of money, and bored from saving the rainforest. Sting was and still is a total and utter __________ fill blank with what you like. [/quote] Genius.. yep THAT's the word you were missing.

wateroftyne Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 C'mon, folks... We can all disagree on stuff but let's keep it civil. Anyway... The vid was great IMO. Copeland has always been sloppy, so no change there. And I don't think they reformed because *Sting* was running out of money. I don't think that's possible.
