This MacSting thing got me thinking back to a humorous little tidbit my wife told me about. She works in digital pre-press production (commercial print related) and often deals with a store in Yaletown/Vancouver called Mac Station for her computer needs. So she’s talking with an employee there and he said that when the boys where up here in Vancouver preparing for Tourzilla, young Joe Sumner of Fiction Plane was at the store trying to buy some stuff and I guess his credit card would not work or something like that so he had to have McStingo himself come down and take care of business. Just a little useless trivia. :D

Frankly, if sting is prepared to teach me to play anything for 4.99 a lesson, I'm impressed. On that cost basis I can be a fully fledged symphony orchestra in a year if I just give up my daily starbucks. Or maybe the male voice choir would be the way to go......

I'm pretty sure it must have been filmed during the Welcome to the voice shows, because he dyed his beard during those performances...
