I saw The Police in concert last night!

[Wendi]

Dh took me to see The Police last night. It was so much fun! They were really great. They were my favorite group in the 80s.

The strange thing was that I saw The Police in concert 25 years ago, when I was in high school. It seemed so unbelievable that it was 25 years! And I never imagined back then that I'd see The Police again at the age of 41. (With the new Veritas catalog in my purse. ;))

:lol::lol::lol: You took a homeschooling catalog to a concert!!! At least it wasn't the Rainbow Resource catalog. I laugh, only because I'm jealous. I talked my high school writing teacher into letting me do a report on the Police. She didn't think I could pull it off, but I got an A.

Have you heard Sting's "Journey and the Labyrinth" cd? It's all John Dowland songs.

The catalog just came in the mail yesterday, and I checked the mail when I was going out the door. So I stuck it in my purse, and looked at it a little in the car. I just thought it was funny when the security person at the entrance said she needed to look through my bag real quick. I thought, "How many other people at this rock concert have a homeschool catalog in their purse?"

Good thing she didn't consider it contraband. Can you imagine having to choose the Veritas catalog or the Police???

:lol:

Well THAT's a no-brainer! Catalog? What catalog? Where's Sting?

[Mama Lynx]

No, wait! I've got it! You were there to get Mr. Sumner's professional opinion on some literature! (Didn't he once teach English?)

WAAAAH! I'm green with envy, Wendi! :( The Police and Elvis Costello played locally last week, and I could. just. scream. I never saw Sting and Co. back in the day...

[Cafelattee]

song's Every Breath You Take. I haven't been to a concert since 1989. I really need to get "a life". I am going to go to a concert. I married at 20 and have since been very mature and boring.. I believe at 38 its time to have fun again. I'm so jealous of your night out.

Um, I could only understand about 5% of the words he sang. Enunciate, people!! Might have helped if he hadn't been chewing gum. Good instrumentals, though.

Sting should shave his beard, but he looks great. (He's still a very sexy man, and a great rock musician.) Stewart and Andy look good, too. Stewart makes some funny faces when he's playing drums, though.

I'm glad to hear it's a good show. I'm seeing them at SPAC in Saratoga, NY on Aug. 1st. I'll bring a copy of the WTM and wave it around just in case any of you women are going, too.....

[Mama Lynx]

Y'all are all making me jealous. I would so love to see both the Police and Elvis Costello.

My two favorite bands have already done shows this year. One, I just could not make it to. The other cancelled :glare: Now I'm going to move and be too broke for tickets. :glare: wah!

No, really, I'm glad you had a good time. Anyone else going should have extra fun, for me, okay?

[Jenny in Atl]

It's funny, I've seen both the Police and Mr. Costello a number of times (in my younth) and I have no great desire to see them again. Not sure why. I guess, since the Police have no new material and Elvis is doing lounge music. Now if I could have swung seeing Radiohead and Feist, I'd be a happy camper.

I am so jealous! We frantically tried to buy tickets several times at the begining of the tour, but unless you were a scalper or an organization buying a thousand tickets at a time, it just wasn't possible.

I never got to go to any concerts when I was growing up. My parents just were not into those types of things. But, dh has seen everyone in concert; his mom took him to see anyone and everyone who passed by even remotely close. It would have been like having a chance to go back and doing something I never got to do, and with dh even.

I'm glad you got to go!!!! It's nice to know that someone managed to get tickets, and I'm glad you had a good time, even if you had to take the Veritas catalog, LOL!:lol:
