I just love "Secret Journey" and "Darkness" off the Ghost in the Machine album, superb pieces of work.

Heyyyy , My Era ..........Not bad but if it was Huey Lewis or Dire Straits I'd be there in a flash . Went to see Joe Cocker once , THE best concert I've ever been to .

always liked the police, if only because of stewarts drumming style. Even listening to early stuff nowadays i'm still amazed at how energetic & inovative he is.....
as for the re-union like so many bands lately...who gives a toss! They can never match the feeling and magic they once had. Besides sting is a ****.

LMAO, that was a joke I think..

I saw The Police in their last concert at the showgrounds, stands out as one of the best concerts I have ever been to. Absolutely everyone sang along to all their songs for the whole concert. As a band they were amazing, Sting by himself sucked though IMHO.

Don't know if I would see them again, don't want to spoil the memory.
