San Francisco Bay Area fans of The Police finally got their wish – the world famous rock band added the second new date this week for their Reunion Tour 2007 – a June 13th performance at the Coliseum in Oakland at 7pm.

On Monday, the group added a second date to their reunion tour giving Boston fans two chances to see the group play at the landmark Fenway Park.

The announcement of a second performance at Boston’s Fenway Park sent fans scrambling. Tickets for the two performances went on sale Tuesday morning and were sold out within seven minutes. Resales of tickets for the Boston shows are already popping up on eBay with prices ranging from $200 to $1,800.

The Police will wrap-up their tour at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on August 5th, unless other dates are added, which is entirely possible considering the overwhelming demand from fans worldwide. Stay tuned to IRC for tour information and updates, or subscribe to our feed.

Fans in the Bay Area of California are blogging like crazy trying to find out why there are no concert dates for Northern California. According to the band’s publicist, Bay Area concert dates will be announced soon.

As for me, I’m flying home to Massachusetts to see the band play Fenway Park (if my dreams come true).

While they may not have exactly performed at their best at the Grammys, drummer Stewart Copeland said they needed to rehearse more. Well, yeah, after 24 years!

It’s official!
Rumors that the legendary rock band The Police, who are among the first trail blazers of alternative rock in the 1980s (when folks like me needed to escape Wham, Motley Crew, Cindy Lauper, Duran Duran) are going to reunite for a performance at the Grammy Awards on Feb. 11 have been confirmed according to the website of the original and only drummer Stewart Copeland.

The band is reportedly setting up in Vancouver, Canada for rehersals prior to their Feb. 11 reunion performance. This has fueled speculation that the band is planning a reunion tour for this summer to mark the 30th anniversary of the hit single that made them big, “Roxanne”.
