Thanks to everyone who replied to my message - you managed to answer a question that neither the usenet newsgroup nor Stingus forums could answer, so this list still rocks ;-) Cheers, Mikkel (P.S:: The first show was Newcastle City Hall, January 10, 1986, the second was Montreux Rock Festival, May 13, 1988.

Hi all.
I just received a DVD with various live recordings of our man, and I am trying to figure out when exactly they are from.
There is a recording from Newcastle around 1986. First Sting is interviewed in the dressing room while preparing to go on stage, and then he performs these songs:
1. Consider Me Gone 2. Fortress Around Your Heart 3. Russians 4. If You Love Somebody, Set Them Free 5. The Dream of The Blue Turtles / Demolition Man
Next is a (different) recording of these songs:
1. One World, Not Three (feat. Ziggy Marley) 2. Be Still My Beating Heart 3. Fragile 4. They Dance Alone 5. We'll Be Together
On the back wall it says "Montreux", so I thought it was from one of the jazz festivals, but it seems to be playback or singback, because many of the tracks fade out in the end. It is from Sting's "long hair" period.
The rest I have pretty much figured out, but I would like to put a date and venue on these two segments. Do they ring a bell?
Mikkel
