fotoman Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 in the same vein as van halen - Turned in a rockin live performance at the grammys =--- totally worth the hype IMHO They don't make rock bands like they used to - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gran Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Rock bands? come on they were great but im not sure if rock is the correct term for the POLICE maybe pebbles... my favorite THE POLICE lyrics - "Miss Gradenko" Don't tell the director I said so But are you safe Miss Gradenko? We were at a policy meeting They were planning new ways of cheating. I didn't want to rock your boat, But you sent this dangerous note, You've been letting your feelings show. Are you safe Miss Gradenko? Miss Gradenko are you safe? Are you safe Miss Gradenko? Miss Gradenko are you safe? Is anybody alive in here? Is anybody alive in here? Is anybody alive in here? Nobody but us Nobody but us. Is anybody alive in here? Nobody but us. Your uniform doesn't seem to fit- You're much too alive in it. You've been letting your feelings show. Are you safe Miss Gradenko? Miss Gradenko are you safe? Is anybody alive in here? Is anybody alive in here? Is anybody alive in here? Nobody but us in here Nobody but us. Nobody but us in here Nobody but us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest avitt Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 The Police were my first "real concert". Bow Wow Wow opened for them when they played the Providence Civic Center (can't remember the year...it was so long ago...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonio Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Id love to see them in concert. FWIW, my first concert was KISS with Eric Carr as drummer. Wendy O and the Plasmatics opened for them. I was young, and a woman with a 2-foot mohawk, bikini panties and electrical tape smashing televisions with a sledge hammer on stage changed my life forever. And set the benchmark for concerts. Rob Zombie is the only one who has remotely come close. But Police are a great band, and of course Sting is a big part of it. Thank God there's no Sting reps out there.

hambone Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I saw the Police in the U of H campus ballroom that held 900 people in 1979, Honolulu. Their second album had just come out and they were not super stars, but wow they put on a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I saw the Police in the U of H campus ballroom that held 900 people in 1979, Honolulu. Their second album had just come out and they were not super stars, but wow they put on a show. When their second album came out, they were already superstars. Maybe not in the US, but they were huge in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
