The f***ing Police again

Gilps · March 5, 2007

It would appear that soon Matt Dawson will no longer be the biggest c*** to have played at Twikenham

Reunited rock group The Police will open their European tour in the Swedish capital Stockholm on 29 August.

They have confirmed four UK gigs during September and October - in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Cardiff - with tickets on sale from Friday.

They will also be visiting Austria, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Spain.

Members of the band, which was one of the biggest in the early 1980s, have reformed 23 years after drifting apart.

There will be further announcements regarding dates in Belgium, Denmark, Italy and Switzerland, according to a statement on the group's website.
