Hey Folks,
Just thought i'd bring your attention to my wee Police tribute band "The Polis", Scotlands only police tribute. We are, at this moment, recording our new demo and ,as the drummer, i have to say that i'm quietly proud of our performance and how it sounds. We hope this will be a big year for us. We have posted a very rough version of Every Little Thing' on our Myspace profile and would appreciate any comments, friend requests or correspondence. As i say this is a very rough recording but check out the link and hope you enjoy it!

Many Thanks
Robbie.

P.s Mr Copeland, if you're listening, it's probably just a small glitch that you've not yet arranged a Scottish show so get it bloody sorted will you or we'll do some instead!

Hi guys, not been on here in about 5 years nearly. My Police Tribute band "The Polis" died in 2007 but after a break and finally finding a guy with the range we decided to give it another shot last November. Here's a few videos made at a recent practice........ Opinions greatfully recieved. And yeah dont judge the singer too harshly that was his 7th practice with us and up to that point he'd been a drummer, i reckon he's doing well.

And feel free to critique my drumming, i've got thick skin........and i'll probably just abuse you right back ;)

cheers
Robbie.

I don't have the expertise to critique the technique of anyone involved, but it sounded pretty damn good to me. More please! Also, you may have the best tribute band name ever.

Hey Smudge thanks for the comments as for the name yeah it's pretty good so good in fact that some tossers in Ireland are calling themselves Polis rather than The Polis, assholes!
