Stewart Copeland is no longer the online blogger for The Police after poking fun at singer Sting in an online rant. Guitarist Andy Summers admits he and Sting were far from amused when drummer Copeland grumbled about the reformed trio's early shows online, stating the band was "totally at sea" and the frontman was a "petulant pansy".Summers says, "I think that was just cabin fever after having been in the same hotel room for three weeks."Stewart thought he was going to be the blogger on this tour. That ended pretty quickly." The group reformed in 2007 to mark their 30th anniversary twenty years after they split in 1986.The band kicked of the American leg of their reunion tour in Vancouver to a sell out 22,000 strong crowd. Prior to their gig The Police had spent months in Vancouver and Tuscany rehersing for their tour and putting a new spin on old songs.The band arrive for the Europen leg of the tour at the end of August beginning in Stockholm, Sweden before ending in Cardiff in October.

They will then play the second leg of American dates before going on to South America and ending in Perth in February 2008.
