Hi Folks, While I am in no way affiliated with the fanclub, I am going to say that many of you should join it. There are often times when people are complaining that they don't get tickets, don't get to this event or that event, and you have that choice in front of you now. You have lots of info in front of you, lots of data including 3 complete album tracks at the moment, plus some live versions of new songs, plus access to tickets, downloads etc. When Sting announces that he will be playing in his underpants on top of the Space needle in Seattle, or in merely a wool hat on top of Canary Wharf in London .you'll look back to this opportunity and know that you could have been there.. Remember, today you have a choice.. Good luck folks Jer

Sting.com site issues?
by HILARY L JUSTH 20 Aug '03

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone else is unable to get the Sting.com page up and running this morning. I am looking a a blank black screen and it is still loading (the little microsoft flag is still waving) but no content whatsoever is showing up. With only 12 minutes until we are supposed to be able to logon, I am getting a little bit worried about this. Bye! Hilary

New single (2nd)
by StingUs 20 Aug '03

20 Aug '03

Collecting the various CD-singles from the new CD will become a sport again. Therefore: Whenever I Say Your Name (featuring Mary J. Blige) will be the next single to be released from the Sacred Love CD. Also, we are preparing to offer all fans the possibility to buy the Japanese Import of Sacred Love at a very good price via StingUs.net from our own stock, offering also the possibility to pay using secure payment methods. This will be possible by beginning of September, so stay tuned. We have done the same for Brand New Day and the massive response then made us understand we needed to do the same again with the new CD. Those wanting to attend the NY and Paris gigs know now what to do as well today ... good luck to all of you! Those living in New Orleans, don't miss the Sting gig that will take place very soon in your town. Cheers, StingUs-team

There is the proof of it. I tried to cheat by downloading songs from SL from Kazaa and ended up with some sort of mixed up....whatever. It sounded like peices of all the songs on the album. Wierd. Jane

It's called 'spoofing'. I ran into this for the first time this spring with the new Peter Gabriel CD. Actually pretty ingenious.

Yeah, it is diffferent then dts or dolby digital 5.1. You have to have a DVD player or cd player that actually says SACD on it. I guess the cool thing is that if you upgrade your gear someday then it'll be 5.1 encoded. Rich >From: amaryll <amaryll(a)norwoodlight.com> >To: "R. M.

Yeah, I am getting tired of buying Japanese releases at twice the cost to get the entire product.
