Sister moon will be my guide In your blue blue shadows I would hide All good people asleep tonight I'm all by myself in your silver light I would gaze at your face the whole night through I'd go out of my mind but for you Lying in a mother's arms The primal root of a woman's charms I'm a stranger to the sun My eyes are too weak How cold is a heart When it's warmth that he seeks? You watch every night, you don't care what I do I'd go out of my mind, but for you I'd go out of my mind, but for you My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun My hunger for her explains everything I've done To howl at the moon the whole night through And they really don't care if I do I'd go out of my mind, but for you Sister Moon -Sting- The recent lunar eclipse was on a Wednesday. What fortune for me and what a night. I got lousy pictu...

Police Tour: Day 4 - The Concert

O.K., I know I haven't posted details of day 3 yet, but I am surprised at how when you get back to the real world there isn't 2hrs a day to come up with the perfect description of your day and crop, size and place to perfection the photos that go along with it. Instead of making everyone (especially me) wait, I am putting up what I consider to be the most important post next -- even though it will destroy the verisimilitude. I will post the details of day 3 if and when I have time (My apologies to Vij's restaurant and the wonderful company we had while there for the delays). You will notice that there are no pictures.

The concert was fantastic. Sting's son is in the band – Fiction Plane -- which opened for The Police (hmmmm...) Yeah, well, they were actually pretty great as unknown open...

This my recounting from my journal of the events of day one... For now, you can guess where most of the photos fit in. If I feel generous or REALLY bored at some point, I may "in-line" them for you. The photo link is at the end of this post. About 6:07am (my watch) Anna, Ian and I hit the road from my house. 6:30am we start listening to our first music. I have decided to put an entire playlist (as sanity allows) on the blog to help establish a time-line. (thanks to wikipedia for all the cut and paste playlists ) " If I Ever Lose My Faith in You " (Sting) – 4:30 "Love Is Stronger Than Justice (The Munificent Seven)" (Sting) – 5:11 " Fields of Gold " (Sting) – 3:42 "Heavy Cloud No Rain" (Sting) – 3:39 "She's Too Good for Me" (Sting) – 2:30 "Seven Days" (Sting) – 4:40 "Saint Augustine in Hell" (Sting) – 5:05 " It's Probably Me " (Sting, Eric Clapton, Michael Kamen) – 4:57 " Shape of My H...
