if some people call matt cameron is a legend i think they should hear this song...and try to compare beetween the fixer (pearl jam) and this song...i think matt try to play like stewart....but to bad....not even clouse...theres only one man who can play like this....stewart copeland...
why the hell did they go through the trouble of outlining that woman at the beginning? the probably spent an hour editing that, what the fuck? and how embarrassing.
ok the director is a disgrace to music. he ruined this video omg., wtf was that at 3:00 all these effects this was a sick performance ABSOLUTELY RUINED pathetic but this is one great banddd
fuckin amen to that brother...i've thought that shit for years. its a crying shame because this was recorded when the police were not only at the peak of their popularity, but of their ability as well. thank you mr director and editor for fucking up a great performance.
@dw2345 What does "back in the day" mean? You mean back in the old days? Back in the day has to be one of the most ambiguous and silly expressions I've ever heard. Back in what day? At least back in the "old days" implies a past tense. It is evidence that the majority of people are either illiterate or show an abysmal failure in their understanding of the english language.
@guitarthroat The day is obviously referring to the time the video was shot that's being commented. That's implied. Understanding the english language has nothing to do with being totally literal in everything you say. The phrase 'back in the day' is supposed to be evocative not ultra specific to a certain time and day.
I have this dvd, and its ok...but that the thing that annoyed me is all of the audience shots. I mean of course they would have shots of the audience....but like every 5 seconds it zooms on random annoying people in the audience. And then on Spirits, it has like a strobe light that will give u a head ache if you watch it. But besides that the music sounds pretty good. ;)
Do you guys know if I can use the JUSTMORE Referral Codes for other poker rooms than Fulltiltpoker com? Because I heard that Fulltiltpoker com won´t be offering that awesome bonus for very much longer and I would just hate to lose my $ 600!!! Fulltiltpoker still accepts all Americans !!
My favorite rendition of this, performed at the Omni in Atlanta. Fast, frenetic, and *oh* so tight. What a great workout on the drums - that's some way to have fun, huh?
I've watched this so many times through the years it's ridiculous, and never grow tired of hearing that Splat! coming from his snare.
This guy does it without relying on ten tons of effects to try to prop up his chops. It's just a balls-out hard work effort. One of the best - I don't think anyone would argue that.
whoever said travis was a better drummer than stewart doesnt have a wide range of music they listen to. i'm the biggest blink fan alive and think travis is the best drummer TODAY, but to exclude guys like john bonham and stewart copeland is crazy.
....... you are very funny like i'm dying here of laughter oh and youve made me feel so bad, like damn some dude on youtube has "made fun" of my name. *pause* bravo bravo
I went to the Seattle show hoping to see this kind of performance. Unfortunately, the 2007 version is watered down crap. Copeland is not the same drummer. Not even close. Those of you expecting a 1983 style attacking performance will be sorely disappointed. You drummers/musicians out there will understand...
blakecam....Gotta cut them a little slack dude. Their energy level and quality musicianship was nearly unmatched. They made other bands sound silly. I would imagine the time apart and then being quite a bit older has taken a good bite out of their sound.
I think those going to the concerts should be glad they are seeing the fucking POLICE. Lord knows how unexpected their reunion was... Be happy you got to see a band who probably won't tour EVER again...
Stewart Copeland is badass and stings voice is awesome:)!!!
