As if it's EVER been an option...
(OK, I had to do it otherwise people would not recognize me).
Posted: 11 Feb 2009 01:05nice to see you T, hope yer well.
and is it a bad omen that gordo is surrounding himself with muso's at the 'Guitar Art festival' just as he enters the studio....
"i have no idea what it'll sound like"... what? no demo's done? nothing useable from the broken music tour sessions?
i wonder how much it's gonna rock?!
"Karamazov had a concert last night in Kolarac Concert Hall, while Sting flew to Bucharest in a private plane"
good to see he's still doing his bit for the (live) earth.

Posted: 11 Feb 2009 01:51They did get back together for a time, that's more then I ever expected.
Posted: 11 Feb 2009 02:18The Police will never record in the studio again and I suspect they won't do another tour. A reunion for some charitable cause in a few years wouldn't surprise me but definitely no new Police album.
I have mixed feeling about Sting's new studio adventure. Sacred Love, his most recent non-lute studio album was disappointing and I hope the results are better. Not a hard goal, actually to be better than that.
The no idea what it will sound like bit, if it isn't just fluffery, doesn't make one optimistic of the results.
On the other hand, he is a talented song writer and I have like some of his work. Like Stewart's solo work much more but it could be good.
Plus, it may be that the Police tour has reminded him of that music and he will make something good like Paul McCartney did in the Flaming Pie album, his first after the Beatles Anthology reminded him of how the Beatles made music. I know TOWOS also enjoyed Flaming Pie and I hope for a similar effect for all of the solo music of the Boys now.

Posted: 11 Feb 2009 02:30Hey smaxx! Hey Nick!!
Luvly to see you too!
Been a very difficult week, what with a death in the family, a funeral, a trip to the frozen Midwest and all. But life goes on.
And Yes, I Worship Flaming Pie. If one member of the Police could do something like that, it would be amazing.
But I don't see them doing an album together, and I think they have made it pretty clear (ahem...Mr Summers? You too?)

Posted: 11 Feb 2009 02:40What if...Sting did just one song on his new album with Andy and Stewart as guest artists?
Posted: 11 Feb 2009 02:49Why not Stewart having Sting and Andy as guests?

Hi E. Sorry about your rough week. Rough one for me too.
Flaming Pie is a great disc. Paul's best since at least the early 1980s with Pipes of Peace and the other one like it that I can't recall. And the second best solo Beatles album in the last 2 decades behind only George's postomous Brainwashed.

Posted: 11 Feb 2009 03:31Listen to Flowers in the Dirt. It was the first time that I liked something of Elvis Costello. Also Off the Ground had Hope of Deliverance that I loved.
Posted: 11 Feb 2009 04:03I think it will be another lute album. He hasn't put the thing down, hasn't gotten tired of it. You know sometimes Sting dabbles in something and quickly grows out of it but not with the lute. Maybe not of the same exact flavor, or flavour, but I have felt for some time that another album involving a lute will be forthcoming. A few other commenters on sting.com also felt a lute album was in the works.

McCartney's headlining Coachella this year and playing a gig 4/19 in Vegas...
Crap. If the economy weren't so far in the dumpster I'd really think about making the trip. As it is I'm pinching pennies like mad...bah. Stupid stock market.
