STEWART COPELAND

What are yours?

Here are 2 of mine:
"So Sting made number 1 in the [i]Smash Hits[/i] Most Fanciable Person poll. Well I was fifth, I beat David Bowie and Bob Geldof, and that's not bad for a drummer!"
(from L'Historia Bandido by Phil Sutdliffe)


"He's superior to me because I'm less humble than him... I'm an arrogant twat"
(from Police Around The World video)

"He's superior to me because I'm less humble than him... I'm an arrogant twat"

That's always been my favorite quote.

My favorite quote and was made in this forum:

"Smile my friends, in show-biz you have to take the rough with the smooth."

I know it's a bit lame to reply to my own post but I just remembered another one I like:

Stewart Copeland: Time for another of my annoying Sting stories. We're on tour in Japan, and Sting buys a saxophone and one of those tune-a-day instructional booklets. Every night in the dressing room he's going "bluh, bluh, bluh," until he can finally play "Tequila". Cut to a mere three months later, and we're at Air Studios in Montserrat for the first time, starting this new album and Sting is playing all these layered brass parts like a fucking one-man Tower of Power.

Andy Summers: And your point, Stewart?

Stewart Copeland: He should've been drowned at birth, I believe is my point.

hehe!

This thread needs more postings!
I am just reading the German Police Interview book and Stewart says some fucking funny things ...

There must be more out there!

Ooh translate and post for us phaty... please.

Not sure if I can be as funny as Stewart - but I can be as rude as him ... you better fucking believe it ... !
By the way Hannaha I am about to fall for you because of your avatar - girls behind chellos are sexy ... I hope it is not a bass and you are HUGE!

phaty,
You were able to read the book? I would have thought your corneas would have been burned out after looking at the cover

I one tough motherfucker!
And now I will stick a pic of Hannaha on the cover anyway ...

"I totally loved playing at Stings wedding - without any strings attached. We could have gone on like this without being ashamed of ourselves. Weddings, Anniversaries, Bar-Mizwas. Give us a case of beer and we come. Thinking of it that won't be enough - Champagne for Sting!"

Excellent - more please!

This is turning into Stewart's best trashing Sting quotes. Which is even better, yet!

Brat-un, Brat-un, Brat-un, Brat-un, Brat-un, Brat
da Dada Dada
Chug, chug, chug, chug…
Ouch! Fuck!

'I want to f**king put my drum part on it!'

I am "yes!", he is "no", I am Instant Gratification, he is Tantric Sex.

I think I'm becoming more of a musician as opposed to a drummer, more interested in the gestalt than I am in my own personal chops.

It takes two to tango, and three to reggae!
