Perhaps the response is on what Henry Padovani said this week in his website:
So, let’s talk anniversary : friday, january the 12th, will be the anniversary of the first rehearsal stewart and I did with Sting. At stewart’s flat.
That was on January 12th, 1977. that day, sting arrived with his son Jo, in a travel cot and us, stewart and I, we were waiting for him in the sitting room, dressed like bandits, shades on, and we had adopted the dangerous rockers pose!!!! Ah,he probably thought we were idiots. But then, we played, and sting accepted to join the band and the Police was born.
Cool or what?
Should we celebrate this friday ? I feel like it.
After all, as stewart and miles said, I got those 2 together 2 years ago when we recorded ‘welcome home’. It was, after all, a pretty good title, a sort of a premonition.
Ok, I will look for an idea and I will come back to make you a present. The first of the year with the Police… or let’s say a sort of a revamped version of it, but a real one!!
Let’s check on Friday.
Happy new year again! "
