I flew to Chicago from Argentina for my first Police concert in my life. Andalthough it didn´t start quite well )delayed flight, missed conncection, luggage not showing up) everything went great. We went with a friend of mine from Uruguay, Analia. We went to Wrigley Field early in the afternoon because we anted to see if we could catch Andy, Stewart and Sting when they arrive to the stadium and al least listen to the sound check form the outside. Nobody from the security was very kind to tell us whether thry have arrived or not, or when the shound check was scheduled. We walked around the stadium and decided to wait when we saw a Chicago police car and two ¨Police¨ white vans. I could saw Stewart inside. We ran to the gate where they stopped and shouted at them telling we had came from South America. Stewart looked at us and raised one hand. We felt lucky we were at the right place at the right moment and could at least see them. Some minutes later something incredible happened^Stewart came out. We called him and he crossed the street and came to where we were standing. He said hi and let us take a couple of pictures. I was stunned!! I didn´t know what to say. I never expected any of them to go out just for us (we where the only ones there waiting for them at the moment). We then heard the sounchceck (they only played Message i a bottle) and after learning that they will not leave the stadium untill after the show we leave to met Allison and David from the mailing list at the Red Lion. While leaving we met Joe Sumner and Pete Wilhot from Fiction Plane on the street. We talked to them for a while and took a couple of pictures. They were very friendly and amazed that we have came from south america. We then went to the Red Lion. We had a great time there talking about Police and waiting for the concert. Later at the stadium we were with Analia trying to figure out the best place to be for the concert (we both had U$S90 tickets but we were not togheter), In a moment a woman from security told us that we couldnt be there and that we have to go to our seats. She asked us where we were and asked us if we wanted field tickets. Of course we do!!!!! She kindly told us that it was our lucky day. Took two green wristbands and two sector B tickets and gave them to us. We couldn´t believe what was hapenning. I didn´t know how to thank this woman. Being still in a shock we ran to the field showing everyone that wanted to see them our wristbands and tickets. The tickets were great. When Message ina bottle started we managed to move some rows to the front but later were moved back by the security. I wont make a concert review as David and Marisa have said everything and the only thing I can say is that it was an amazing concert. Really better than what I expected. They were in great shape, lots of energy lots of jams and much imporved from what I heard of previous shows. I believe they are getting better and better as time goes by. I had an incredible day in Chicago and would never forget it. All thanks to The Police! See you, Joe from Argentina PD^I uploaded some pictures to the Photobucket Policetour album and there are some more in flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/9931374@N07/ _______________________________________________ Police mailing list Police@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police _______________________________________________ Police mailing list Police@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/police THINK BLUE!
