Parsed Participle

I suppose one could call me a fan. After years of not listening to classic rock, leave aside The Police, I suddenly find myself buying all their classic albums. In fact, I just bought almost all of them. Amazon is evil, I tell you, with their accursed 'Customers who purchased this item also purchased...' feature:

• Reggatta de Blanc
• Ghost in the Machine
• Zenyatta Mondatta
• Synchronicity

Only Outlandos d'Amour is needed now, to complete a full collection of all the band's studio albums.

And, what timing: 2007 sees Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland not only reuniting as the original 3-piece band, but with any luck, I get to see them live in Tokyo in February. If I buy the tickets on time that is. I have a horrible track record of missing out any good live music in a city that's not exactly deprived of it.

I must be a fan; I've spent all weekend watching YouTube videos of The Police, both clips from their 2007 world tour and the old music videos from the early 80's.

I only hope they don't get completely bored of playing the sames songs over and over again, by the time they get here.
