The Police to reunite again? 2009-05-13 by Alex101 | 8 Comments | According to NME.com, The Police may yet reform once again, after drummer Stewart Copeland refused to rule out further shows. The post-punk veterans got back together for a world tour last year, including a headline slot at the Isle Of Wight festival.
The tour saw them play to three million people, and Copeland told BBC News that he would be willing to do it again - but joked that it would not be not for a good while.
He said: "I'd recommend that every artist should do it every 20 years. So call me in 20 years." Copeland has also just completed composing the soundtrack for the forthcoming show Ben Hur Live, a project which he described as a "no brainer." He describes the show as "music mixed with media, some thrashing drums with an ethnic element, a Middle Eastern feel". Described by producers as an "operatic sports event", the show premiers in London this September and then travel through Europe.
The climax of the performance reportedly features a live chariot race involving 20 horses.

So shouldn't this article be titled "The Police to reunite in 20 years" ...?
| | | I read this article from the bottom up, and was wondering why Copeland was being mentioned in the same context as The Police.
Silly me.
| | | Haha, I just did the same ^
| | | 20 years too late to celebrate...
| | | That's what I meant to say, Darkman1. If they were to reunite another 20 years, some (or one) of the members could be dead by then.
| | | Id say within the next 5 years, or whenever Sting decides to make a solo album and tour it. It all revolves around him. The Police = The shit!
| | | now i have 20 yrs to learn to care about them.
| | | I had free tickets to their last reunion tour in 2007, it wasn't too bad considering I don't like their music.
