Isn't that the one where if you want to see the entire 4 minute clip you pay Sting dot com the forty bucks?

I can see why he gets angry about people filming him .. if Sting can pimp him out for $10 a minute, I'd be policing the unapproved vids too.

The forty dollar fee has Miles Copeland written all over it.

absolutely.
I have always thought that there must be miles of well-shot footage lying around somewhere from all his Sting tours That overhead drum cam bit of Hounds of Winter -wouldn;t you just love to watch the whole song/gig from that vantage point?
Interesting comment from his tech about Vinnie wanting to 'do it all from his wrists' - obvious, but goes along way to explaining how his set u has contracted in towards him over the years. I think all of us older chaps have gone through this -I know I have..none of my cymbals are above my chest height now.

Sting really cares about his fans, and the rainforest, but the fans first and foremost, and money.

Hey Paul....sorry if this has been asked. Does Vinnie have a couple of these kits (East, West, Europe) or does he travel with this one?

[Rodge]

I'm pretty sure that with an artist like Sting, the drum follow them....

Does Vinnie have a couple of these kits (East, West, Europe) or does he travel with this one?

Why would anyone want to know that? What is the real question you're trying to ask?

Miles is one smart business mutha...he's the guy who told Branford and company that nobody's coming to see them. It's all about Sting. However, he's smart enough to know that VC is one of the most beloved icons of the drumming world so why not cash in on that? I'm not gonna fall for it but many others might. It will show up for a couple days on YT and it will be on desktops everywhere just like the Chaka Khan rehearsal.
