And from what was evident of The Police Reunion Tour, Stewart Copeland hasn't evolved much as a player. He still exudes such an adolescent attitude and yet can no longer compensate for that with powerhouse banging on the drums anymore.
Just watch how Sting reacted to this particular display of amateurish drumming:

It's hard to tell the context of that clip; that's one complicated relationship they have there. It's funny how both Sting and Stewart both act like kids arguing. Both of their attitudes are amatuerish imo. it's passive aggressive and disrespectful. There are better ways of communicating.
