Can I eat some Humble Pie - when I was growing up .........

I was a metal head in school and I hated new wave, two tone and any bands who weren't " 'eavy" or punky.

It's only with hindsight (last 20 years) - that I have seen what I have missed.

I might not actually go and see Sting & co - but I will be listening to the concert or buying the live dvd.

Anyone remember their interview on Entertainment USA when the lads were playing around and one of them got injured.

i remember that..i belive stuart broke his arm falling backwards if my memory serves me right? i know there was a lot of hate in the band towards the end..i'm sure it will be on you-tube somewhere..
speaking of entertainment usa i would love to see the kiss clip off there,does anyone know if it's on you-tube? i remember something along the lines of "eric favours spiked red heels" and gene saying he hated all kinds of synth music??

Back in the day when my shithole of a town was the hotbed of music i actually saw the Police live.....think it was 79.They set the attendance record for the King Georges Hall that night,in fact i think it still stands.......
I have no shame in saying that the concert was fantastic, i was very young back then and hadnt experienced an atmosphere like that before....
We had some of the greats play my town..........Bowie,Queen,Beatles,Acdc,Leppard,.......Daniel o Donnel ;)
Motorhead Bryan Adams The list goes on ...........these days we get no such thing..

It's a shame that bands/artists no longer play venues like this, these days.
Would love to see bands as stated above in initimate venues like this. Also it'd probably be a lot cheaper!!!
