ACCURACY INFORMATION ON STINGUS |
|
CDs at eBay USA | eBay UK | eBay DE
Every now and then there seems to be doubt about the accuracy of news provided on StingUs, and lately even about postings on our forums.
Again, we would like to clarify that all news we gather here comes from reliable sources. That some news is not officially confirmed does not mean it is not true (see e.g. concert data which we have mostly available before you will read it on the official tour websites). What appears on the forums is solely valid for what it is, namely open postings for everyone having a free membership, hence also the reason that not everything posted on the forums is posted in the newspages or further addressed. The same for the rumours about a new CD. We were informed by Universal Music staff that some new releases are in the pipeline, but nowhere have we claimed nor stated this would consist of new albums with new material. Even better, this was NEVER posted in any article in the newspages itself since we did not have enough information available.
We hope that by this whoever is complaining about our accuracy will keep their mouth shut from now on.

Good for you Stingus. Keeping us informed is what you do best and no one should berate you for it.

Per another site site we have heard the same word. Album to be released in May of 2006. Granted nobody seems to know or wants to tell us if its a live, greatest hits, studio, or a box set.
But when I went to Universal Music's website I saw no mention of the album in upcoming releases. Sting.com also isn't making any mention of it. Something fishy seems to be going on and its not my last name!
I don't think we or I am questioning the source of the information. I'm just questioning all the "secrecy".
I remember when "Nothing Like the Sun" was to be released. At first I didn't have a release date and kept pestering the record store and anybody else I could. Finally a "public date" was put forth and I circled my calendar.
Finally the date of the release had arrived. I went to the record store wanting to be first in line if possible, but it wasn't to be. The date I had been given was the date the album was to be delivered to the store...
We appreciate the news regardless of the source... and well the natives are getting antsi...

Hey who's been complaining?!! :P Certainly not me, well i hope not anyway!! :/ I'm not so sure about Sting performing at the O2 festival in London - simply because his name doesn't appear on the bill and it seems abit strange that he'd play it!! However, as far as the CD releases are concerned i don't doubt that at all!! ;) I appreciate what you do here stingus, very much! Somehow you always seem to get news before ANYONE else and I only very very rarely doubt its accuracy!! :)
OK so you didn't mention 'new material', thats just us obsessive people 'hearing' what we want to hear i guess!! But ya never know!! ;)

The news has cleary been inaccurate in the past. Esp. the thing about sting and stewart brawling about the right to use sting's songs in the film. Stewart himself shot that news down personally, on his site. Stingus didn't even bother to rebut its own FALSE news with stewart's comments.

Dear Buttamos, please read the article on Stewart again, you will see his comment was added about it being not true the moment it became available.

some people just aren't able to read and comprehend, so it seems;-)
Keep up the good work, stingus!

Stingus just prints the news as they hear it. If someone prints an article they pass it on. They don't necessarily subscribe to the contents of the story.
They keep us informed of all the changes.

Exactly, Lady Dolphin... We´re tortured :(
Let your pain be my sorrow
Let your tears be my tears too
Let your courage be my model
That the north you find will be true
When there's no information
And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well

So is it true that the CD is now not due until 2007 and all this may have been wishful thinking?
sigh....
