Unbelievably Lame

That's why I hate seeing these big bands in even larger venues.  All they do is play their regurgitated set list, say, "Thank you <insert city name>, goodnight!", and leave.  
 
 I like The Police but do I really need to hear Roxanne or Message In A Bottle live?  No.

Not sure what all the hullabaloo is all about, it's just another 80's band reunion tour.
 
 The Police were once categorized by one magazine as 'blue eyed reggae' which I found pretty accurate, and in the words of the great one 'reggae is vile' then he continued to say "it's music for the mentally deranged" I believe. So it is rather uncomplicated music, that's why these shitty pub bands cover them so much. "walking on the moon - Da doo doo da da diddy diddy - Roxanne etc."
 
 Having said all that, I like some reggea, Steel Pulse, Marley (of course) and of course UB40 when they're performing their own songs.I thought the first two Police albums were excellent, then I got rather bored with them.

That's one of the more ridiculous things I've read on the board in a while.

Just busting your chops a little extra during the Stanley Cup.
 
 As for lawyers, you're talking to one of the most non-traditional lawyers in history.  I was never even sworn in after passing the bar because of the current state of the profession.

Fuck The Police.
