LOL
What are you, 20? Name one other trio that has done 1/2 the work The Police have. As a group, and each member individually.

No. If you checked you would realize that we're actually pretty close in age but you do have me by a few years. By the way, just because they individually have had some accomplishments doesn't mean that together they were that good. I've heard their songs and I just don't see it. I'll put it this way, if the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame had actually serious criteria, as a group they would not make it. You don't have to agree but I stand by my position. You, likewise, are entitled to your opinion. So, enjoy the awards tonight for me because I won't be watching. They're to political with no actual substance.

(Just to be very clear, I'm saying award shows are of little actual artistic substance, not the Police, who have made a few forgettable 80's songs that don't play on any stations I listen to).

That's not at all what I was saying. I think it's great that they did so much together ... and on top of that, they were all individually successful as well. Again, name one other trio who can say that.

I've heard their songs and I just don't see it.

So that means they aren't good? Just because you don't see it? Have a little respect. The guys are in their 50s, still doing what they love, and were able to get beyond the shit in their past to come together once again.

I can only hope I'm still doing what I love when I'm 50.
