Overcover of the Week: The Police Reunion


Over the course of the last few weeks, I've been utterly confused as to the extensive blog coverage of The Police reunion. Unless soccer moms in their mid 40s are the people updating blogs, which is entirely possible given the anonymity (outside of the first name) of some of the more popular blogs, there is absolutely no reason to condone this sort of activity. A brief glance at Sting's solo career showcases the definition of mediocrity. In fact, I would argue that much of The Police's records are just the sort of completely uneventful and unchallenging music that is most appealing to the average "top 40" music connoisseur. I can only conclude that the types of bloggers covering this silliness are either

A.) Following the trend of the bigger blogs.

Or, the more frightening scenario...

B.) They don't understand what a vast amount of bullshit was put out in the 1980s that allowed The Police to rise to fame in the first place. Sure, they were different- they were "fresh," but look at their competition.

There's nothing rock and roll about being 50 years of age and regrouping your old, washed up band because the yoga background music lute solos didn't flare as well as you thought they would. If you are writing a blog and you don't have anything new to say, don't say anything at all. Save the readers the time it takes to scroll down and look for relevant stories, which, if you are covering this sort of thing, probably aren't there. If I'm looking for reuniting Dinosaurs in rock and roll music, I already have my pick as to whose team I'm on.
