“See you again, who knows when…” Sting could say anything into a microphone and it would sound absolute class. Fantastic band, one of the world’s greatest.
Three sublime musicians that made some of the best music ever. So glad to have experienced that era.
This is probably my favorite Police song.

Sting's best lyric
This is from "Police in the East", a film / documentary which followed The Police through the Middle East, Japan, and India 💞💖💞💖💞
Stingo is so great here he literally pulls the band up by their bootstraps his intensity here is what makes them arguably I suppose - THE GREATEST BAND IN THE WORLD!! He’d so exhausted by the time the reunion took place so slow and lethargic but he had a tough job and he did it but unless he can find that said long lost intensity it’s really pointless. It’s wrong to play these songs at half the speed - if u can’t do it the way they were intended then don’t try it bc you’re ruining a legacy
I was there and remember it well.. thanks for the clip!! and it was Today's World Disco in the alley behind Elizabeth House.. I had the poster for the concert once, but it is now lost.

You can now.
Andy's face at 1:28 when Sting's got his arm round him!!!
Stingo was never better as he literally pulled the band up by their bootstraps the intensity was never higher than this period. You can see him pulling on the bass glancing over at the band and yanking this out of them. By the time they got to the reunion he was exhausted rearranged so he could make it work but these songs aren’t built for half speed so if u can’t do them properly then don’t do it at all and I paid 5k to see them In 07 and they were great no mistake but seeing them here it’s just unbelievable how amazing and this is what branded them the GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME ☝️
This was taken from the Around the World video. Annie Nightingale joined them on the tour to interview them.
Love it, up close and all.
Moi, crammed between Sting's bass rig and the wall @ 2:36. One of the smallest venues I ever worked with them.
