Wait a minute. This was the Police on tour, right? Are you saying ALL of those bands played as opening acts?!? Or was this actually some new wave festival the Police headlined? If the latter, awfully impressive of them to do a full 90+ minute set when festival appearances are too often abbreviated versions of a band's usual show.

Bloody hell, Synchronicity into Synchronicity II was like a train coming careering towards you and not stopping. Man it's amazing...

Thompson Twins and The Fixx opened up for The Police at Fresno State Univ. , best concert and most memorable for me.

One of the most original bands of the 70's and 80's. A very big reason for this is all members are very astute musicians(something lacking in today's bands).

Sting was dabbling in cocaine around 1981-82 or the Ghost In The Machine sessions, and yes the videos shot in Montserrat. Also check out Police live 1982 Gateshead in Stings hometown, he is tweaking. I think he grew bored with it shortly after and Trudie put a stop to it.

This is sensational

The Police were pure magic together but I think Sting's spirituality really brought the music serious depth, insight and sophisication. It is so unique, powerful, moving, introspective, philosophical and life affirming. It actually makes me feel closer to God. When I was young and going through bad times this album and my cat were my only happiness. Thankfully better times came but I uniquely appreciate them for helping me out of a time I considered dire. I feel always indebted to them. And wish I could thank them. God bless guys.

I saw this concert at shea stadium in Nyc. REM opened for them . Nobody paid attention to them. Many people booed REM who deserved it. They were sloppy players and surly. At the time they were a minor league band at a major league concert. The Police were fantastic. Total pros and high energy major league performers. - giving a great performance all the way through. Tremendous musicianship. I think they did 3 encores.

Stewart seems cool but he is also from a scumbag Freemason family, Sting is just another Satanic sellout. So who is to say which one is the bigger piece of trash? I would lean toward Sting, I picture the idiot wearing a mask and getting the jab.

Anybody else notice the light show seems much more intense than on the original release . I saw the band on the uk leg of the syncronicity tour and the light show was fantastic but on the Atlanta show it's hardly noticeable ?

I love The Police

Interesting how throughout this tour the set list almost never changed at all. Also almost every Synchronicity song was played except the 2 songs Sting didn't write (Mother, which was an awful song by Andy & Miss Gradenko which I liked written by Stew).

Paul Wilkinson - Boring real answer: I think gearing myself up every night, getting into that state of mind to deliver a knockout performance wherever I was, whether the stadium was sold-out or half-empty or even if I’d performed virtually the same setlist for 100 nights in a row, would be really taxing… a person would probably need about three or four pre-show hours of total solitude daily in order to get into that frame of mind, although being megastar rockstars with ample funds and a big entourage would probably make getting replenished daily a little easier; the performing part itself would be a breeze, especially if the audiences are good and receptive - just hearing the crowd from the wings, when the lights go down, cheering before you hit the stage, is enough of an adrenaline boost to get all the performance juices flowing for 90 minutes, easily for way longer, and then when the lights hit you and the crowd roars, gah… you can be the shyest human being alive, and I promise you, the lights and the noise and the focused attention on you is enough to transform anyone; I’d say ramping DOWN after a show would be the hardest part, I’ve never been in a mega rock group, but I’ve performed on a stage before a sold-out room (a mid-size theater was the largest) under bright lights, and that’ll buzz you for hours… that alone might cost you sleep nightly, and then, depending on how “healthy” a lifestyle you’re sustaining on the road (wink), I think _that’s_ the part that could probably kill a person. So yeah, I don’t know that performing would be the problem, I’d think working out what to do with your downtime - both to gear yourself up before a show, and not to accidentally die or incapacitate yourself (or catch something) after - would be the toughest part.

No it doesn't, that's the backing track that Sting starts with his right hand on the keys before coming in with the bass line. They took a page out of Rush's book and used a lot of pedal triggers and synth back tracks to replicate the album more closely for the live performance. He does the same thing for Walking in Your Footsteps before he comes in with the pan flute.
