bluefox4000 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'll probably get run off the forum for good for this one but anyway.... The Police is one of the many bands I loved in the early eighties, and one of the reasons why I never paid much attention to Rush. So, I had to answer honestly. Back then, for me (and I emphasize for me), Rush couldn't compete for very long up against other bands. Rush isn't close to my fav band. so you're good, lol Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 The police are one of the most bland bands. On record that is..........never seen em live. Rush all the way. MickI just never got it. I always thought they were just above me. Not unlike Dylan I suppose... they're just.........boring And sting's faux Jamaican accent is just so damn annoying. Mick Is that what it is? I agree he's a real fanboy of himself, and I couldn't stand their fan base of teenybopper little boys and girls, but The Police were talented, and I did love their music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 The Police are good.....Copeland has a very unique sound, I dont know how to describe it and I dont know if this word really fits when describing drumming, but he has a very distinct inflection - how he makes different hits vary throughout the song, his intensity flows really well throught the song especially live. I would just call it the particular way that he swings- syncopation that is much closer to jazz drumming, rather than rock. He's really good, but Neil is better. I agree with that, too.

Segue Myles Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Sting always makes me think that, had he not been a musician, he could instead have been a murderous barber. Just a vibe I get... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a teacher before he became famous. That's probably where he got the lyrics for Don't Stand So Close To Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
