Stung By The Police Reunion Rumors



This has been reported many other places besides here already, but it's just so freakin' cool I can't resist spreading the word. The Police are back!

Billboard put this announcement on their website back on the third of January:

"Rumors are swirling that the Police will reunite for 2007 dates in England and the United States, which would be the legendary trio's first since disbanding in 1986."

And now this is up on the NME site:

"The Police have scheduled rehearsals in Vancouver for a reunion tour, according to a report on the city's classic rock radio station, CFMI."

Other news reports are claiming the band hasn't reunited for a tour at all, but instead are simply making an unannounced appearance at the Grammys to play one song. Given this is the 30-year anniversary of "Roxanne" being released, I think we all know which song they should perform.

-sniff, sniff- Smell that? Ahh, sweet nostalgia . . .

Edit: It's confirmed!! The Police are playing the Grammys. Get your DVRs ready!
