I would have watched the show had I known they were playing.

Aye, he works with some great musicians but I never quite got into his lone-personality stuff. For me the success of their sound was as much about Copeland's drums as Sting's vocals. Not to slight Summers, that's just where my ears went.
I'll certainly make one of their shows if they hit Oregon.
