hi this was the best night - at least for me. same setlist as on the 28th many mistakes, especially on andy's side? / a few from sting but andy was jumping like hell and enjoyed the show the versions were good, sometimes great more improvisation than on the other two nights Footsteps had an uptempo middle part - was that played on monday, too? Roxanne's impros were good and the new part in Moon with the killer bass line gets better and better... saw the three of them leaving after the show sting and trudie in the 1st car / stopped to give a few autographs stewart in the 2nd car, stopped for a few handshakes andy waved while entering the car and then drove by pointing to us / I guess it was the driver's decision to go on great night, great week, great town, good night! dietmar ________________________________________________________________________ Bei AOL gibt's jetzt kostenlos eMail f?r alle.

Of course I would buy it, but I'm not excited about it. Not being critical but only because I can't foresee anything remarkably new from when Sting appeared, playing Police tunes.

the Police unplugged
by jbwilm＠aol.com 30 May '07

30 May '07

On the heels of their opening show in Vancouver, The Police have agreed to perform an MTV “Unplugged” set this summer. Sources tell me that the date for the show is July 13 and it will take place at a still-to-be-named location in Miami. “It’s an all-acoustic set,” says a source. It’s also the first time The Police as a group have appeared on “Unplugged,” since the group disbanded in 1983 and the MTV show didn’t start until 1989. Sting appeared on “Unplugged” in 1991 as a solo act. The "Unplugged" show will come at a great moment in The Police tour. On Monday night, the group did their premiere show in Vancouver to a wildly enthusiastic audience including actors Penelope Cruz and Laurence Fishburne and rocker Eddie Vedder. On Wednesday night, the group will welcome Elvis Costello and Diana Krall backstage. But apart from the celebs who are going to be making pilgrimages to their backstage area, The Police are drawing raves from everyone — including Sting. The rocker was apparently caught off guard by the enormous reaction Monday night, telling a friend, “It really is a big deal, isn’t it?” Yes, it is. Now, if the “Unplugged” show goes well, the possibility exists of an album taken from the broadcast. Previous “Unplugged” albums by artists like Eric Clapton and Neil Young have been big, big hits. Tuesday, by the way, was a day off for the group in Vancouver. They spent much of it on a yacht, according to insiders. That night, Sting and wife, Trudie, took their kids to see either “Shrek the Third” or “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Why the uncertainty? “It was whichever one they could get into,” their friend says. They had to buy tickets like everyone else. ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.
