The Police Call It Quits (Again)

By Paul Cashmere
Wed, 07 May 2008 07:53:24 +1000

The last Police concert ever will take place in New York in August.

The band together with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced today at a press conference that the final show will be a benefit for arts programming for public television stations.

The Police will also contribute $1 million to MillionTreesNYC, an initiative of the mayor.

MillionTreesNYC plans to plant 1 million trees across the five New York City boroughs by 2017.

A date is yet to be set for the show. The venue is likewise unconfirmed.

After this show, The Police will once again be no more. You can now official write-off the chance of a new studio album. It just isn't going to happen.
