This week's list may need some explanation: Mike got free tickets, so we went and saw Sting in concert last week, and got backstage for a very brief "meet and greet" session with the Stingster himself. The record label reps had told us that Sting wouldn't autograph anything, but that he would pose for a photo op. They had also told us we should just introduce ourselves and shake his hand when the "big moment" arrived. While we were standing around waiting, a bunch of us came up with a list of some things we probably should not say to him when we meet Mr. Sting.
