STEWART COPELAND

Last night I had a dream in which I attended a première of a Stewart work.

Here is what I remember from it:

Stewart was in on a stage by himself with just his drum kit.

It was a wide but not deep auditorium, kind of like the one in La Jolla but smaller.

I was on the right side in the audience, having the privilege of sitting next to Conroy. Again like La Jolla on both location and Conroy.

The next Stewart show was going to be in Portland Oregon, which I was disappointed that I couldn’t attend. I don’t know where the one in my dreams was other than on the East Coast of the United States.

Either the piece to be performed at the show I attended in the dream or the one in Portland was entitled “Timbuktu.”

Stewart had a question and answer session before he played his new piece. I raised my hand to ask a question, as did Conroy.

And then the damn alarm went off and ended the nice dream.

I had dreams when I was younger of actually going to the record store to buy the "new" Police record. They were quite vivid. I remember taking off the shrinkwrap, and reading the song titles, although I couldn't remember any of them once I woke up. This continued until the mid-90's.

i had a gordo dream last night..... nothing pervy. thank. god.

i was watching him on stage, looked like mid 90's gordo with cropped hair wearing a black wife-beater, he was playing the old fender bass, with a single yellow spot from above.

He sang "Every tear that falls, is another year i'll love you for"...

kinda sounded a bit like "mad about you".

>goes off to write cheesy song with those words in<

So, it seems the only way Sting is going to give us new material is in our dreams. Go ahead and write that song, smax. You presently have way more of a creative spark than Sting does, even if the lyrics are a little cheesy.
