So in the world of rock-n-roll, almost every band breaks up, makes up, and then does a 300 date tour to celebrate. And though I admit that I'm still waiting for the original GnR line up to do the same; this stuff tends to happen ;-)
So all things must come to an end, and The Police's final swan song will be at The Garden, arguably the most famous arena in the world. And this historic last show will be a fundraiser with proceeds benefiting the production of arts programming for Thirteen/WNET and WLIW21 New York. Now how many bands DO THAT?
In conjunction with the August 7th concert, the band has thrown in a nice little "memory" for the person who's willing to be the highest bidder. This once-in-a-lifetime experience auction on eBay Giving Works includes(for two):
• Directly interacting with The Police during an intimate Meet n’ Greet (under 20 people total).
• Receiving a group or personal photo with The Police.
• Attending the final Sound Check by The Police.
• Front row Sec 2 tickets.
• Pre-concert dinner and cocktail reception hosted by Thirteen/WNET and WLIW21.
• Limited edition final concert souvenirs.
So if you have the cash, and the desire to live history, then go place your bid!

I never actually liked The Police, but then again, I'm stuck in a moment I can't get out of ;-)

Ahem...where is my yummy yummy photo of Stewart Copeland? What about Mr. Summers? I'd even take one of Mr. Sumner, if it came to that.
I'm their biggest fan....

Sorry, RG - some things never fade, and my fandom for stewart is one of them.

@Ellen G, I guess I feel the same about Doris Day

@RG: She might agree with me.
