Here 'tis: "On February 12, 20 Sting.com legacy members will be able attend The Police Rehearsals - to commemorate The Police's 30th anniversary. Sting.com have secured credentials so that 20 legacy members can be there to attend this historic event which will take place late morning at the famous Whisky A Go Go on Sunset Boulevard."

:(

Ok, now I'm definitely bitter.

On a good note, though, this rehearsal takes place after the Grammy's, so they are admitting there is more to come.

Well, this is showbiz, hon. Sting is the "name" performer, so I guess this means he's going to get to call the shots. I can't say I'm surprised, but it is disappointing.

Well, if the whole thing turns out to be a Sting-a-palooza, there'll still be other opportunities to see Stewart with Gizmo or Oysterhead in the months ahead, I'm sure. Especially since I noticed Sting has a bunch of solo gigs booked. I would imagine this will keep SC out on the road with ES:TPIO, as well.

I'm curious about something...
How is it that Stewart has an amazing website for FREE but Sting charges for his website? Who pays for Stewart's website?

I think charging money to be a fan is LAME. I'm a Sting fan but I'm not a fan of his greediness.

Stewart I'm sure.

This isn't fuckin' fair! But I don't think it's even Stewart, Sting, or Andy getting to deside.... it's their record company.
