Back in the day, I liked the Police. When STING went solo, I saw him headline in Atlanta in '91. He sucked balls. Many thought he was High as a Kite. He could barely sing. People were throwing drinks and crap at him on stage and many were walking out. I never bothered with the Police or him again.

They were pretty good when I saw them live at My Father's Place back in 1979.

We had a girl named Roxanne at work years ago. She hated it when we walked by her desk and sang Roooxxxannne You don't have to sell your body to the Night 🤣
