Episode Info

  • Episode529
Stewart Copeland of The Police is known as one of the greatest drummers of all time. We chat about our return home to America, Stewart's bad-ass jam zone, he's been cutting video since before we were born, the difference between prog and punk, how a haircut can change your songwriting, his dad was in the C.I.A., his old guys rule cycler's breakfast routine, Chinese billiards, his kids used to get weirded out watching him on stage and now they want artist passes, when bands play so long they have porta potties on stage, if we're all here doing drugs then whos playing the music? It's more fun playing on a Ringo-style setup but he'll never get rid of his massive kit, his Brentwood scene report, and his new book is out next month.instagram.com/stewart_copelandtwitter.com/donetodeathtwitter.com/themjeans Learn more about your ad choices.
