Dominic Miller don't have plans with STING

[Jose]

"There are no plans to work with Sting in the future. Now I realise giving him that &%$£ing lute was the biggest own goal of my career. I have to laugh sometimes just thinking about it. It put me out of work for a year, and then he did the Police tour to counter the lute project. Another year. Now, apparently, he's back on the lute. Who knows. But boys and girls, I do have a sense of humour. Just. It's been two years since we worked, and in those two years I have gained more than I have lost. Namely, a family life. Just going away for three days is hard, let alone three weeks or even three MONTHS which seems impossible to contemplate. I used to not flinch when we went on these long tours and be away from the family months at a time. The shortest world tour I did with Sting was fourteen months. The longest, two years. Touring at that level is a very selfish existence. Yes, you do perform in front of thousands every night and make a lot of money and which is thrilling, but you simply don't have a life. Do I miss it? @£$% yeah, but for different reasons. I miss the camaraderie of being in a band, that's for sure. The money? Absolutely. The notoriety? Maybe. But I don't miss the tedium nor the repetitiveness of it all. I am a family man now and no touring can ever replace that. I am also a musician, and yes I do go away from time to time, but never for more than two weeks. I lead a simpler, better life and make my sad music which makes me happy."

So, viewing Dominic like one of the main supports of Sting solo music... and without plans to make more music with Sting...and on the other side a superb success of "The Police" revival... perhaps it is a necessary clever of some future plans of the reunion of Stewart, Andy and Sting into the studios... definetely a new "Police" studio Album will be a super goal at 2010 :roll: Isn't it? 8)

Yes, that was posted a long time ago. However, I don't think there was any serious confirmation that Dominic was going into the studio with Sting. I think it was one of those posts on a web site from a person who had "very good sources" or something like that.

In any case no matter what is dug up I don't think Sting is going to be in a studio with Stewart and Andy.

I think the Sting we're getting now is a mellower, "lute"-ier Sting. I predict that pop/rock/reggae Sting is done...

Yes the post was from awhile back. No new posts from DM on going back into the studio with Sting.

Correct. Time to put OT in front of the posts concerning Malgordo?

Yeah this post was from september 2008, but the author was DOMINIC MILLER... it says don't have any intention to return to waste time out from his family making longest tours of two years... It sounds like Stewart... :roll: I think a "POLICE" studio album is possible, viewing the enourmous success of the return of "The Police" to the stage...So why not thinking on that? Saying me again I am crazy...Yeah I am crazy by The Police... and never say never :wink:

No , this is an old quote from september.
After that in december, Dom said that he will be with Sting in march for new material and in a recent interview Sting at Belgrade Guitart art festival said that : “On Monday I plan to enter the studio and start recording a new album. I still have no idea how the album will sound, but there is beauty in that uncertainty.”

It was recently announced that Sting will be performing in Toronto in May for a hospital benefit along with Cheryl Crow and The Four Canadian Tenors. It's sounding kinda lute-ish to me.
