Actually no, I heard much faster versions when they performed the tune during the Ghost in the machine and Synchronicity tour…

I have seen several versions of this live,and Copeland changes the rhythm every time his improvisation is amazing. I am a drummer myself and he's th biggest influence on me,his mind is wired differently, he knows he has to provide the rhythm for the song,but it's almost like he is not capable of providing the same beat for a song two nights in succession, just a totally astounding drummer.

Amo a Copeland, pero por su forma de tocar, no podría ser el baterista de Genesis, dado que es necesario tocar cada noche de la misma forma. Pasó esto, cuando Brufford rewemplazó a Collins en 1976, y en cada noche, tocaba realmente lo que deseaba. Tony Banks, se enojaba mucho por esto...

'cause not too big club was... & the Police hadn't too huge publicity in the wide world yet

I actually got to hang with them, in the early 80s when I was in HS. My Aunt worked and dated the late great Hawaii Concert Promoter Ken Rosene. Rode with them in a limo from Honolulu Airport l. Got to their gig at UH Manoa campus. Watch them do blow before they hit the stage for about 200 fans, did their Outlandos songs, but played their Two new song Message in a bottle and walking on the moon. Nice guys joking around like tourist about luaus and beaches, never at that time, knew how giant rock icons they would become. Still a huge fan and I'm 58.

Great footage. The Police are a tight yet fluid band.

My god I want to just speak to someone that was at this show so bad. I have so many questions. What a quality live version holy cow.

Oh man would I love to be that close watching and feeling the magic : )

Stewart Copeland: Undoubtedly, the most interesting drummer!

THI IS AWESOME 😎💙

Kind of reminds me of when I saw them at My Father’s Place in Roslyn, Long Island (NY) in the late 70s. Literally, it was like having this legendary band play in your living room.

Three years ago I met this gem of a song And I don't stop listening, I liked going to a concert of you I'm 18 years old and I really like your music.

Stewart Copeland played always at maximum. Big bang energy.

Wow, didn't think a video this great existed from the early days. Fans so close to the band and clearly visible. Could possibly now be my favourite live performance of MIAB? I think so.

I've never seen a video that encapsulates the experience of a crowded, loud, sweaty club gig than this.

I remember renting "Around The World : The Police" from our local VHS video store, and I never returned it. I can't believe there's more footage from this show. I believe they only used footage of them playing "Born In The 50's" from this show for that film. I'm beyond stoked. To The Police : Thank You so much for this. I hope more unseen footage is being worked on!
