I read a post some time, somewhere, this week about Sting's early muscial work (pre-Police), and can't find it, or recall where I saw it. Here perhaps?

I meant to make a note of it on the fly but did not...

Any clue?

From Google

Before becoming lead singer of the band The Police, Sting was a ditch digger. He was also a school teacher at St. Paul's Roman Catholic First School in Cramlington, England. There he taught English and was also a football (soccer) coach. Before being invited to join The Police by Stewart Copeland, Sting was in many jazz bands, including The Ronnie Pierson Trio, Earthrise, the Phoenix Jazz Band, the River City Jazz Band, the Newcastle Big Band, and Last Exit.

Now that i think of it, it may have been the post-police era...
Argh... rotted brains!
