Had lunch yesterday with my old friend Andy Summers who’s back in town for a week before hitting the road again with a little band called The Police. We go back over 30 years to when I was in the original Rocky Horror Show show and played guitar in the band and Andy would sit in for me if I was away. He was a starving artist then – now he’s back at the top and The Police is now the biggest act in the world all over again  - this tour has had rave reviews and netted over $220 million so far – and that’s just last year’s legs. “The shows we just did in Buenos Aires were some of our best ever – and we filmed everything,” he told me. The 12 camera shoot was directed by music vid vet Jim Gable (The Stones, U2, Michael Jackson etc.) and will likely be a theatrical release later this year.
