What Brought You Here?

My first post is about Stewart coming to Savannah. I had lurked a while after the Atlanta concert, and joined in December. Long time Police fan, always intrigued by Stewart's playing, loved watching him play, even before I was into the drums.

I was a LONG time lurker (back to the sc.it days) before actually registering. Police freak since I was 12 in 1980. When the Police called it quits I discovered the Klark Kent stuff (along with Rumble Fish) and the Summers/Fripp stuff. I figured if there would be no more Police stuff I'll just get all the individual stuff the three guys produce (which I do to this day).

I started lurking on this site because it was cool and very informative. It also seemed to be a great reflection of Stewart with its open and participatory vibe. As has been said many time before, "Stewart kicks ass."

I joined the site after the reunion announcement. This is the only forum I've ever joined and the only one I've ever posted on (unless you count Amazon reviews). Obviously (by the number of my posts) I still generally lurk rather than post. This forum is filled with great folks. I've found lots of answers to questions I've had here and I've been able to locate tons of boots and such from info on this site as well. It's entertaining as hell to read the threads too. It's part of my morning ritual now to check sc.net. Great job Gio and everyone else who helps run the site.

Oh, my first post was about the fee to join thepolice.com.

Thanks STEWART!

I'm with Alex. We were buds through Uncle Ian first. Met Gio and the rest of the crew (you know who you are!) through Leroy. Long time die hard since May 1983 when I heard the first bar of Every Breath You Take. I remember reading about Gio in the Outlandos newsletters....

I found the site around the beginning of the tour, but I don't think that it was the disaster gig that brought me here. I think I just googled and stumbled across it.
But, then I lurked.
For a long while.

After I was hooked on it, Savannah pushed me over the precipice. And, darn it, now I come here each day to chat with you lovely nutters.

[quote="TOWOS"]"Forever Copeland" fan, I lurked for years and my first post was mistimed and a disaster.
My passion for Stewart prevented me from running away immediately.
Let's say I started with the wrong foot.

I don't know what the fuck you're talking about


I too had lurked I thought what a bunch of nuts believing this "STEWART" guy is the real Stewart Copeland

Then the disaster gig happen and knew the article wasn't true.......
then I said to myself you dumb ass it IS Stewart Copeland !!! and now you're stuck with me

My first post........ on the Disaster Gig:

May I suggest that you come back to B.C. and give those poor bastards a repeat show at the end of your tour, but in Victoria, the capital of B.C.!! (said with a Cheshire grin and innocent eyes looking to the side)

Thanks

Started off lurking, then got brave enough to post on the old SC. It then came across this site and lurked some more, then got brave and posted and have been regula since of course. This place is like oxygen. I need to come here or I do not feel human. I have met so many great folks on here. I love you guys and gals.

I too am one of the proud and few great-grandaddys on this site when it had an .it extension. I came here via Ian's site. I was a big AUIer fan and visited it daily although mostly a lurker there until I actually met the big guy. Sadly a huge vaccuum was created when Ian passed away. I was delighted to see that Stewart grabbed the torch and ran with it once he started posting his Dinner Tales here.

My very first post to Stewart about his film reels for posterity's sake...

Hi Stewart and anyone else who reads this.

Really happy you went diggin through the vaults/ garage/ basement/ hall closet/ under the bed for us!! I've been a big fan for as long as I can remember. ...

It was nepotism. My sister, SamburuSunset, introduced me. Blame her.

I had lurked from around the time of before the Vancouver shows, through the early period of the tour. But it was the tube sock avatars. I thought they were hilarious and loved the fact that other people even remembered that Stewart wore them. I said to myself, I have GOT TO get to know these people, this has to be a good thing. I am so glad I did.

I used to visit the stewartcopeland.it site, but only vaguely remember it. If I recall correctly, it used to showcase Gio's impressive SC collection.

Then Mr. C's derangements got me to lurk around the messageboard sporadically, and then this reunion finally forced me to post some ramblings.

When they first reunited to practice for the Grammys, I thought there might only be two or 3 shows and that there was no way in hell I was gonna score tickets. So back then, I was most looking foward to a live DVD and maybe some stuff to come out of the vaults.

And thanks to this site, I've finally gotten into more of SC's work than just the KK stuff. I've got to thank this site and tour for the rerelease of the Rhythmatist, the release of the Anthology, and hopefully much more to come.

Well, the memory of the song, "Darkness", and how much stayed w/, all this time, and then finding this website (pre TOUR, way before) upon getting access to Internet regularly. And, reading Ian's 'Wild Thing', right before hearing of his passing. But didn't post for a while because I forgot all me access info....er, oops!
Once the Tour started & I got tickets for the Churchill Downs show, unbelievable, just could NOT believe that I'd finally & actually GET TO SEE/HEAR THE GUYS LIVE!!!!!!!
And all ofthe Fellow Nutter posts have been a blast & a real treat this past year+. So, Thank You ALL, also!!!

[MFF0RD8]

lurked around long enough until this year's hollywood bowl shows, my first post was about the addition of 2nd night.
