I have just found this article on Yahoo that I would like to share:
Police reunion rumors reaching fever pitch
By Jonathan Cohen
Rumors are swirling that the Police will reunite for 2007 dates in England and the United States, which would be the rock trio's first since disbanding in 1986.
Sources told Billboard.com the reports -- in the British press -- were legitimate, but they would not publicly comment until final details are nearer to completion.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the release of "Roxanne," the single that broke the Police in the United States. In a statement issued last month, A&M Records said, "It is our intention to mark the anniversary by doing something special with the band's catalog of songs. Needless to say, everyone is hopeful the band will support our plans and while early discussions have taken place, nothing has been decided."
Sources say in addition to DVD releases, A&M is planning another multi-disc collection in the vein of 1993's "Message in a Box," which featured the band's complete studio recordings and a handful of rarities.
A Police reunion has been the concert industry's dream for two decades, as it is believed the band could play stadiums internationally should it choose to reunite. But besides an impromptu set at Sting's 1992 wedding to Trudie Styler, the Police's only other post-breakup performance was in celebration of its 2003 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
And while Sting has repeatedly expressed reluctance at reuniting, drummer Stewart Copeland and guitarist Andy Summers have kept the flame alive. This summer, Summers told Billboard he was certain the group could have continued past its 1983 commercial peak with "Synchronicity."
"The more rational approach would have been, 'OK, Sting, go make a solo record, and let's get back together in two or three years,"' he said. "I'm certain we could have done that. Of course we could have. We were definitely not in a creative dry space. We could have easily carried on, and we could probably still be there. That wasn't to be our fate. It went in another way. I regret we never paid it off with a last tour."
My take: A Police reunion would probably be the ultimate of all reunions. As mentioned in the article, Andy Summers and Stuart Copeland were put on hold so that Sting could pursue more adventurous material as a solo artist. Copeland and Summers still probably think the band never broke up and are waiting on the main bass player himself. Sting left to pursue a solo career, a career that has obviously blossomed and has led him to experiment with everything from rock, electronica, adult contemporary and of course 15th Century Victorian classical. The man is a music genius, he has done everything he set out for as a solo artist, hell at his age he still practices the good old Karma-Sudra. So a reunion to the band that made his name in the industry is well worth it, in fact he does Police tracks during his live shows. It wasn't a bad break-up like the Beatles, no one passed away like in Led Zeppelin, he just left and they waited. Copeland and Summers have jammed Police tunes with everyone from Incubus (Who are probably just as excited to this rumor as I am) to countless others. What you need to remember is The Police were the first pop-punk band to make it big, if you only know them for their big hits (Roxanne, Message in a Bottle and of course the P.Diddy, or is it just Diddy now, sampled Every Breathe You Take), you are seriously missing out on some great music.
