  • The legendary Stewart Copeland shows us around his own (aaamaaazing) studio at home. Apparently Stuart's studio came with a free Thomas Lang-shaped coffee machine. Who knew ? Me neither. There he is though. How cool is that ?

    Words cannot describe the gratitude I feel towards Stewart Copeland. The soundtrack he created for the Spyro trilogy is not only timeless but also incomparable. As a child, I used to play these games and I still play them due to the memories I connect with them. Thank you, Mr. Copeland!

    I can tell you from personal experience on the So Cal studio scene that Stewart doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He's just a thorough task master who is also so much fun to be around.
    And while The Police were a British band, Stewart is American. And as with Sting, Americans love nothing more than to deflate British pomposity (since 1776) and take them down the ego ladder a few steps. And that's what Stewart always did to Sting. And despite all that hype, they're still best friends.

    I used to think that if I could ever be someone else I would be Stewart Copeland. His family background is intriguing, where he grew up all the places he went to, where he went to school, life before the police and then after the police, being talented, being rich, read his biography. Yeah It’s good to be Stewart Copeland. And oh yeah almost forgot, he made the documentary ‘Everyone Stares’ with a super 8 camera documenting the police tour in the early 1980s. Damn cool! How many musicians can claim making their own documentary?

    And for having to put up with the ego bullshit of Gordon 'Sting' Sumner'....he deserves a medal. Stewart was The Police founder member. Brilliant drummer.
    (Man, I would LOVE to spend a few hours in this place with the percussive stuff. What a room.

    Wow I would love to hang with this guy!! It's so great to see a successful professional musician who still gets that initial kick and love for music that you get from the start.
