Another vote for Copeland and Moon.

Another vote for Copeland and Moon.

I saw Stewart Copeland in 1982, not musically though. He was making a film about UK punk bands of the time and it was at an Anti Nowhere League gig at the Queens Hall in Bradford. The Police were massive at the time so it was quite a big thing. Can't remember what became of the film.

I heard a tale about when he died, possibly apocryphal.

I think the documentary was called 'So what?' - there's precious little information about it, though.
