As great as the Police were... I did get to see them twice, once with Oingo Boingo and the Go Go's .... somethings are better left in the past.

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

Tells the story of a freighter that snapped in half (or bottomed-out due to structural flexing according to one theory) during a winter storm on Lake Superior, circa 1970.

You hear the song, it sticks with you.

Uh, uh. If you remember, it "may have broke up, it may have capsized, it may have dove deep and took water..."

So much for it sticking with you!:D

Age 11 in 1974:rolleyes: I was already in college in 1974. Crap, you guys make me feel (know?) I'm old.

I've talked to a couple of people who have met Sting. They both said the same thing, interestingly. They said, and I quote "His is a Force in the Universe." Apparently, he's one of those people who might as well sound a trumpet when he walks into the room. One of those people you can't take your eyes off.

I really liked his music when I was 18-25 yrs old - the 80s - but his self-importance and worldliness makes me puke.

Craig 930 RS 01-16-2007 11:17 AM

Isn't that a bit close??

swa911 01-16-2007 11:19 AM

Yeah, normally you have to bring it in pretty close to the ground in order to land. :)

Z-man 01-16-2007 11:19 AM

I'd go see a Police reunion. I do like Sting's music. Plus it would be cool if they started fighting on stage! :eek:

In my wife's eyes, Sting is god. But she told me when we were engaged that I should consider myself to be special - for she gave up Sting in order to marry me. (Is that an insult or a compliment - I still don't know...)
-Z-man.

Your wife dated Sting?

Ricer: RI-sirr
(Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt)

A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):

- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder
- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747
- Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool
- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself
- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire
- Clear tail lights and corner signals
- A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)
- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.

LOL!

Me too... I have never been impressed or in awe of celebrity (possibly one of the few attributes of growing up in Lost Angeles) granted some people are born with extraordinary talent and/or good looks. So you won the genetic lottery... whoo pee ******* doo!

Don't get me wrong I think Sting is a musical genius (and that coming from a bass player). I was a fan of the Police and he has done some (very) good solo stuff (and some bland stuff also).

The Police music is kind of dated IMHO and I wouldn't pay to see it although I'm sure they will sell out ever venue.

Kind of like the Cream reunion, three extraordinary player and very cool to see them one last time... but when I watch my DVD there is a bit of a melancholy pathetic tinge to the whole thing. Sort of like watching middle age dudes trying to relive their youth.

But WTF who am I fooling... it's all about the Benjamen's and I'm sure everyone will make a buck off the tour.
