For this historic music television event, Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland will perform and discuss with Elvis their varied and respective interests in music as individuals, as well as the remarkable chemistry together that has made The Police one of the biggest bands in music history. The show will premiere later this year on the Sundance Channel in the USA, CTV in Canada and Channel 4 in the UK with FremantleMedia Enterprises distributing the series internationally. The location of the August 6th taping will be confirmed 24 hours prior to the performance. These tickets cannot be purchased. They are not transferable.

Salt Lake City 8/19/08
by Pete Ashdown 20 Jul '08

20 Jul '08

The Police pulled through Salt Lake City last night and put on a very good show. Of the four I've seen so far, Vancouver (fan-club), Denver, Dodger Stadium, and this, I'd rank it #2 in performance. Bonus points for being on my home turf. They've got it down to a science now and that is my only criticism, the show has very little spontaneity. It was nice to hear Demolition Man, I can't recall if they've played that at the other stops I've seen them at. I wish "Walking in your Footsteps" was still on the list. I liked the new video projection, it seems to me they weren't using HD at the previous stops and now they are, but I was also considerably closer than Denver and L.A. Here is the setlist: Message in a Bottle Walking on the Moon Demolition Man Voices/When the World is Running Down Don't Stand so Close to Me Driven to Tears Hole in my Life Everything She Does is Magic Wrapped Around Your Finger De Do Do Invisible Sun Can't Stand Losing You Roxanne King of Pain So Lonely Every Breath You Take Next To You
