Stewart has two book signings planned in the States in Hollywood and San Francisco. For more details visit HOLLYWOOD and SAN FRANCISCO.

Courtesy of HarperStudio and Stewart Copeland we have ten signed galley copies of Stewart's forthcoming autobiography "Strange Things Happen: A Life with "The Police", Polo and Pygmies" to give away in a prize draw for Police.com members.

When Stewart Copeland gets dressed, he has an identity crisis. Should he put on 'leather pants, hostile shirts and pointy shoes?' Or wear something more appropriate to the 'tax-paying, property-owning, investment-holding lotus eater' his success has allowed him to become? This dilemma is at the heart of Copeland's vastly entertaining memoir-in-stories-that-could-be-told-over-a-meal, "Strange Things Happen". The world knows Copeland as the drummer for The Police, one of the most successful bands in rock history. But they may not know much about his childhood growing in the Middle East as the son of a CIA agent. Or his film-making adventures with the Pygmies in the deepest Congo. Or his passion for polo ('Brideshead Revisited on horses'). Stewart Copeland counts himself fortunate to have been the founder of the most played and successful trio of the 1980s. More recently he has travelled the world in search of exotic rhythms and musical celebration, from mysterious Easter Island to Mozambique, and from the outback of Australia to the remotest regions of the Congolese jungles.

For details of how to enter visit ThePolice.com/strangethings and enter in the draw, remembering to read the terms and conditions first of course!

Also, stay tuned to both ThePolice.com and StewartCopeland.net over the next couple of weeks for another contest (on Stewart's site for signed finished copies of the book), and (on both sites) some audio chapters from the book, read by Stewart which will be available as downloadable MP3's!
