RE: [Police] Fiction Plane dates

I have reservations about the album title as well. But remember four years ago when Brand New Day was about to come out -- the title back then was "The Lovers", after Jacques Brel's "Les Amants." So who knows, the title might change (let's hope). I just hope it's not sappy. I tend to prefer his darker songs like St. Augustine, Children's Crusade, Lazarus Heart... Oddly enough, I'm not really anxious about this release. I don't really need a new Sting album right now. Doesn't it feel like BND just came out?

I'm back on the list

After a long absense, I found my way back to the mailing list. I've got lots of archives to read in order to catch up. Having read that the alleged name of the new CD is "Sacred Love", I'm excited and nervous for the new CD to arrive late this year. That's all for now, hope to hear more about the Mayan gig.

Fiction Plane will be playing HATE on the Craig Kilborn show a week from Thurday ( 5/22) . Also, I've added some photos from the band's show at TLA in Philadelphia, and a great audio interview (and photos) from the band's Mercury Lounge gig. You can click on both of these from the front page of the website. http://www.angelfire.com/band2/fictionplane/page68.html

I think someone on the list mentioned that he knew that that there is enough material in "The Vaults" for the Police to release another couple albums or more. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but hey, I'd love to here "Every Bomb You Make" :) I'm sure some day there will be some sort of collection. Til then, I guess we fans just get to keep trading and searching.... Til Again, -Dave

The deal on the DVD taping
by Steve Roberts 14 May '03

14 May '03

Here is the report from the Mayan. I was about ready to give up but drove by again today at 11am. I noticed Kipper in the parking lot next to the Mayan. I parked and ran over. Before I knew it there was Dominic, Jason ... then Sting. I managed to get in but was told I could only stay about 1hr since it was going to be busy later because Sting had invited a lot of friends. What they appear to be doing is taping something similar to the TST video that came out with the CD. Sting has a stage set-up in the middle of the dance floor - so the only place for spectators is around the edges and the balcony. I watched as he played one of the new songs about 6 times. It has a jazzy feel - very nice song. At one point he took a break and came over and greeted the people watching. After about 2hrs I finally left - didn't want to push my luck. Plus I had to get back to work. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

Photo of Sting at mixing session in Paris!

Hi there, I found the following information while searching for details about the forthcoming album: ============================ http://www.solid-state-logic.com/news/newsstory.php?id=42 Sting's Latest Album Mixed On XL At Mega Studio, Paris Sting has just completed the mix for his next album, scheduled for release in September, at Thierry Rogen's Mega Studio in Surenes, Paris. Over a two-month period, twelve tracks were mixed by Grammy Award winning engineer Simon Osborne, using Studio A's 96-channel XL K Series Super Analogue console - the largest XL in Europe. A highly experienced mixer, it was Osborne's first introduction to SSL's flagship analogue console and the experience left him extremely enthusiastic. "I'm a long-time fan of the J Series, but this console sounds even better! I found it very straightforward and easy to use. We used the XL for the stereo mix here - we'll mix in 5.1 for the DVD later - and I found the Ultipan automated panning a very useful and timesaving function. Overall I'm extremely impressed and very much look forward to working on the XL again." Sting will release a single in July with the album, DVD, TV Special and world tour following from September. ============================ The article also contains a very interesting picture showing Sting, Kipper, Simon Osborne and Donal Hodgson: http://www.solid-state-logic.com/news/pr/0304/03043l.jpg It's getting more and more exciting....
