Okay, so The Police have just announced their second show in Denmark in June next year - the question is, should I go?
I have a hard time making up my mind here. Ticket prices are high - again - and I have already seen them when they were here on September 1st. That was an amazing show, but it will probably be the same show over again in June. Also, the summer shows come after a three month break, so maybe they will not be up to full speed.
Then again, this is probably one of the last chances to see the trio perform live, and they are my favourite group.
This reminds me of a vegan restaurant I go to every 2-3 months. All the staff know me by the number of the dish I order. Once a young waiter questioned why I didn't order anything else. There were many other good dishes according to him. I tried to explain to him that if I were going to die and were asked what my last meal would be that this dish would be it and it wasn't as though I came in every week to eat there. I don't wish that they would add a different sauce, or another side dish, or cook it differently. I just want that dish as it is, thank you very much. In the music world The Police are my #63; it was a major miracle that "the restaurant" reopened and I could have that dish again. (and again, and again : )** ) and I would have it again if they come to this area once more, even doing the same set list, as long as I had money in my pocket. **I saw them at both shows at Fenway Park in Boston in July, and then again in November at Boston Garden.
