STEWART COPELAND

hey scnutters! i miss you guys!

i am on break from teaching this week and i wanted to reconnect!

Stingo is coming to perform here in atlanta next week during the final four basketball championships. he will also be doing a show here on june 10 at chastain ampetheater.

i never got the chance to attend a soundcheck back during the police reunion tour. even when i won 1st row seats to miami, they were not doing the visitors at soundcheck yet, or i was never notified they were. i went to four shows in 2007 as a fanclub member and never got invited to see a soundcheck.

can one of you help me out or point me in the right direction to make this dream happen?

in other news... I was recently nominated for next year's music educator GRAMMY!! i am very honored and now have to wait to find out if i make the quarterfinals. STEW pull some strings? would love to represent the scnutters at the Grammys.

thank you to anyone with advice on the soundcheck thing!

lots of love to you all!

BTW...

my apologies for bringing up Stingo

But you all know, that as a drummer myself, Stew is KINGO!

Congratulations on your achievements. I used to teach here in Kentucky a long time ago, so I know that it can be challenging but also very rewarding. I still have a lot of friends who are music teachers and several of us play in bands together in the Northern Kentucky area. Sorry I don't know how to make the soundcheck happen, but perhaps someone else here knows how to pull some strings. Keep us posted with further updates.

do you know jason koontz?

Yeah, I met him at EKU's homecoming several years ago when I played in the alumni band. I don't get down to Eastern much anymore and I don't belong to PASIC, so I haven't seen Jason for a while, probably since KMEA in Louisville a few years ago. Seems like a very cool guy, and he's done some cool stuff with Eastern's percussion ensemble, steel drum band, etc.
