When the Police "broke up" in 83' (yes, I know they reformed and played 3 concerts in 86) I was 15. I never got the chance to see them live. I spent 24 years waiting for the chance. I finally saw them in 2007 in Cleveland. There is a magic these 3 men have together that's beyond words. Thank you Sting, Stewart and Andy.

Stewart Copeland is so syncopated that Syncopation itself has difficulty to keep up with him...fuck me,what an awesome drummer he is,such a very unique style,absolutely one of my greatest drum idols.P.S.Sting is a great bass player and his voice is amazing as always here...and Mr.Summers is one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.The Police is and will always be one the best bands ever.

These guys made a trio something utterly different! They used Reggae rhythms and brilliant timing to create something unique! One of the greatest bands in rock history!

Stewart Copeland. Neil Peart. Taylor Hawkins. They are just at another level. All you can do is listen and enjoy because you will never be able to do it.

Best version of this song. A musical opus.

Stewart Copeland. AMAZING!!!! This guy just doesn't get the props that he should be getting..

You don’t get musicians like this anymore. That was absolutely great. Brilliant medley of early police.

Not only are their songs timeless but The Police are one of the most timeless bands ever!!!! You listen to them play one of their songs and immediately forget they began making music back in the 70s!!!! LONG LIVE THE POLICE!!!!!!!!!!

Sting solo took him in a different journey with more sophistication and poetic songs. He sold 75 million on his own and created 5 masterpiece Albums. He is one of few solo act that kept his legacy and popularity after leaving his band.

Mr. Copeland make me crazy !!! I know... There are obsessive-compulsive people, autistic people ,some rain man mdfkers, absolutely perfectionists, extra precise people or crazy geniuses who hit the drums without such a minor mistakes, like one millisecond. That's how I recognize two drummers; 1 is from the police and the other is from Simple Minds..please Stewart, MAKE ME A DAY and fuck up the rhythm at least once !! Will you? Come on!

That was a really great performance!

I met Sting when I was about 7 in 1977/78 - he used to teach at my school (St Pauls Primary School in Cramlington) before my time and he came back to see his old colleagues - he was wearing a striped top and had the big bleached punk hairstyle

Gordon went on to greater things....however this...THIS 3-piece band was his real home!

This show happened 10 years ago, at the time of this comment: First off Copeland is a friggin MONSTER. Agreed. Andy's playing is multi-layered, complex, very colorful. He's getting a lot of mileage from a small tank of gas. Sting. Still how his voice can go low and still high (the song's mid-section) at his current age, is very surprising. We he hits that high range it's really unnervin. Mealwhile his bass is busy rumbling in the background with all kinds of flavor. And how Sting calmly stays on point against World War III behind his left shoulder, is mysterious. The Police are wonderful to watch. Only three guys! Seems as they have little in common but then they arrive, tighter than as a mosquito's ass, at each destination. And another thing, this show is something like two decades after they broke up? Think about it.. How's your today after-20-years ago going?
