Has anybody heard of Stubhub.com? they are selling seats in New Orleans (for which the pre-sale hasn't even started) $1000.00 for 24th row. I don't want to spend that kind of $ for tickets but at the same time I'm only going to one concert, I want the seats to be good. It's not out of the real of possibility financially. (just CRAZY!) Based on what I'm hearing of the best Buy pre-sales and Sting.com earlier pre-sales maybe this is my best bet? Maybe I should just do it and if I get something more reasonable later sell them on EBay? HELP I'm so conflicted! What should I do you guys? My husband has agreed to the $ since he knows I've been waiting since I was 11 years old to see this!

774 emails? The Police world has been busy! What a ride it was, and I think I'm still in shock! The emotions were high and I feel like I had an out of body experience, that's for sure. I still need to see the broadcasts to believe that yesterday really happened! michelle, back in, um, texas to find out someone has been fraudulently been using my amex. I have time to deal w/that??? Still smiling though.

I sent this letter to the Muscular Dystrophy Association after my letter to Dave and Wendy bounced. Maybe they can do something. Hope so! Good Luck, Scott! Holly

Webcast tears

I was driven to actual tears as I saw Sting, Stew and Andy rock the Whiskey on today's webcast. I have muscular dystrophy and have exceeded the average life span for people with this disease by about fifteen years - I am now 40. I think maybe God kept me alive for this long so I could see this Police reunion. I am elated beyond belief! I've lived for this! Peace, Scott Sands Orlando, FL

I wonder if the person even GOT tickets. It's only been a few hours and I'm already disillusioned. But I still love the Police. M --------------------------------- Be a PS3 game guru. Get your game face on with the latest PS3 news and previews at Yahoo! Games.

Presales
by mark george 13 Feb '07

13 Feb '07

Well, thanks to my girlfriend's wisdom of joining Best Buy Reward Zone last year and a little luck with a fast brand-new Mac pro at work, I have 2 tickets for MSG 8/3. And great seats at that. I feel blessed; usually I get screwed on deals like this. It's 4 hours since the transaction and I'm still shaking. It's my understanding that the Vancouver presale is tomorrow. The fansite lists noon as the time, and I think this is local (is Vancouver Pacific Zone?). I noticed in the small print that the premium membership gets you up to 4 tickets for ONLY ONE SHOW during the whole tour. If you get less than 4, they won't "carry over" to another show. Anyone else mention that here already? So choose wisley, I guess. The instructions also explain how to access the presale through that website as Bruce suspected. Good luck to all of you..... --Mark from Minneapolis _________________________________________________________________ Get in the mood for Valentine's Day.

Re: [Police] Best Buy Presale = What A Joke!

Unfortunately as much as a fan I am of Sting and originally The Police this does not suprise me!! I am keeping my fingers and everything else crossed that I get some on general sale this weekend. I did not and could not pay the $100 (Fan Club)so will take my chances with the general sale. I imagine the price of the tickets that will be high so that factored heavily in me deciding not to pay $100. I was a member of the old Outlandos fan club and they got me 10 rows from the front at one of the RAH concerts but apart from that I got the same type of ticket I would have done on general sale. The weekend cannot come quick enough for me!! For those who have tickets already, congrats and I am jealous!!! For those, like me, who will try this weekend...GOOD LUCK!!!!

What a waste of 30-40 minutes. They probably only had about 50 tickets to begin with. And now, the people who did buy tickets are posting them already on eBay for several THOUSANDS of dollars. What a joke. And speaking of joke...what's up with paying an additional $100 for another opportunity to purchase already inflated tickets (through the fan club)? I'm really suprised no one on this group has even mentioned this. Yes, I am very excited that The Police are back together...but I'm not going to shell out all of this additional money for the right to support Andy's retirement. -A.

Hi Marco, Are you looking for those specific SL songs only? I have guitar chord book in my pc with some songs of The Police! If you need it, let me know! I could send you them via email! Cheers, Pandababy ;)) Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2007 12:48:04 +0200 From: red.baron(a)mbox.bol.bg To: pashdown(a)xmission.com Subject: chords Hi, I am Marco, from Italy, I am a fan of Sting and I like to play his song on piano and guitar, trying(!) to make them sound fine playing alone. Can you help me to find some chords or find someone that did that? Now I am trying to focus on some Sacred Love songs: Dead man's rope, Never coming home, Stolen car, Forget about the future, Sacred love.. Thank you very much, Marco.

LOL Talking about Fiction Plane, I think it's fantastic! Since one of Fiction Plane guys left the band to help his wife to rise their child (how sweet of you Dan indeed), FP consists of 3 guys! Do you see any coincidence here? ;))) Anyway, I'm glad for FP! I also saw them before some of BMT gigs and I should admit that I can't think of a better opening act at all! And I still think that Sting is great father to think of his son! Hopefully they'll do some songs together again! :)) Cheers, Pandababy Links: ------ [1] mailto:police-request@mailman.xmission.com
