Excellent!


I'm really enjoying this thread & all the LOL Sting zingers!

I would make a monetary contribution to any endeavor that could could guarantee I'd have no memory of any Stink song. Almost impossibly, he's worse than Tom Petty da doo da da

Perhaps we should all chip in and hire Vinny Jones to go down there for a day, he'll sort out Sting's Tuscan grapes..............

i guess people here don't understand vineyards all over the world do this exact same thing. really very common. people go to these things and treat it like a vacation

Why does not Sting just donates several millions of his OWN money. I know he has enough money , anyhow, to give the whole of Africa enough to eat for the next hundred years .

Hypocrite.

if you read the article it appears sting is trying to make this once derelict and neglected vineyard into something that can make money for the community as a tourist attraction

I just checked Sting's website for details of the packages on offer. Here they are:

1. Basic Douche Package

For just 499 Euros you can experience life as a Tuscan peasant farmer for a day. Price includes:
- a twelve hour olive picking session in a remote corner of Sting's estate;
- a lavish peasant lunch (during the 15 minute rest break at noon) of day old Tuscan bread and all the olives you can hold in one hand, washed down by a mug of wine from Sting's estate (budget box wine only)

2. Silver Douche Package

For just 699 euros you will receive all of the benefits of the Basic Douche Package but will be given access to a premium olive-picking patch within one mile of Sting's villa. Please note that the one-mile perimeter around Sting's estate is strictly enforced and patrolled by armed security guards who have orders to shoot on sight any unauthorised person found breaching the perimeter.

3. Gold Douche Package

For just 1599 euros you will receive all of the benefits of the Silver Douche package but you will also receive a fully escorted 15 minute tour of the olive groves surrounding Sting's estate including exclusive access to the area that lies within the one-mile perimeter. Please note however that no access will be granted to any areas that lie within a half-mile of Sting's residence and any attempts to breach the half-mile perimetr will be subject to full armed response.

4. Ultimate Douche Package

This is the one for the true Sting afficionados! For just 15,999 euros you will receive all of the benefits of the Gold Douche Package plus an exclusive fully escorted 15 minute visit to a plot of ground within 500 yards of Sting's rehearsal room. Your visit will be timed to coincide with Sting's daily lute practice sessions and therefore you MAY hear one or two stray notes as the master himself plinks away on his instrument.

Yeah , well.. Sting can give the community several of his millions of euros, in my opinion. he has got too much of it anyway.

i agree but when sting is gone it can continue to make money if tourists want to come.

there are several local beer breweries in my area. a few of them offer packages to come tour the place, learn how the beer is made, etc and one of them is over $250. its a common thing and shouldn't matter if they guy who owns it is a musician or ultra rich

Hilarious! How many will take up this pay to play offer? I really liked Sting's music about 20 years ago and before.

Love it. ><

I would go for the very reasonably priced Number 4.

To get so close to someone like Sting, the most charitable and decent person on this Planet Earth.

I know that's his own opinion of himself , so it must be true.

Sting is really a fabulous guy, ain't he?

This amazing package offer shows how much he thinks of his fans.

Do you think during that day in the warm Tuscan sun he'll throw in a sandwich and a cold drink?

<<Do you think during that day in the warm Tuscan sun he'll throw in a sandwich and a cold drink?>>

Only if you go all out and spring for the VIP Douche Package, which is item 5 on the website.

Dear Sting,

You are a tool.

Sincerely,
Kurt

Common for poeple among the 1% or idiots who think it's so chic to pay for this but among regualr folks it's usually the other way around : you get paid for picking grapes.
You're fed 3 times a day and you're housed. You're also generously supplied with (rather low-grade) wine from the domain you work at... (ouch my head). You get to meet colorful people and sex with co-workers is not bad... (see the "generously supplied" part of my diatribe)
