Hello All, It is the morning after the Police performance in Honolulu. I spent last June traveling around California to catch their four shows. Though I struggled at times to enjoy some of the newer arrangements of songs, I found myself having a great time by the end of the Dodger Stadium show. We had yet to use our fan club code at this point. We were saving it for a possible trip to Mexico City, which didn't work out. When the show in Hawaii was announced, we immediately jumped at the chance to attend the show. I must say that I am extremely happy to have waited for that chance to use that code. Last night's show rocked! It equaled their performance I was lucky enough to attend on the Synchronicity Tour. I knew it would take time for Sting, Stewart, and Andy to gel into a cohesive unit. I just didn't think they would be able to equal musicianship and energy they possessed back in 1983/1984. Most exciting to see was the performance of Andy. Gone are the questioned and frustrated facial expressions Andy displayed early on in the tour. These expressions have been replaced with genuine smiles of enjoyment and happiness. He has progressed musically with the songs from the set list to the point of minor improvisations. His contributions to the songs just flat out rocked. In the years since the demise of the Police that I have seen Andy performed, he has never been better. Sting and Stewart were Sting and Stewart, minus the baggage that plagued this group for many years. Sting's singing and bass playing were superb. Stewart beat the hell out of his drum kit. I haven't paid too much attention to the set list since June, other than knowing they have played the same one since the beginning of the tour, dropping a few songs here and there. So, the addition of "Hole in My Life" was the highlight of the show for me. And it sounded as if it had been played since the beginning of the tour. Add in the energy of the crowd and the unexpected pleasantness of the venue, the concert was one of the best I have ever attended. To date, I have easily spent $900 for tickets to five shows on the tour. I will most definitely spend more to attend additional shows this summer. Those sitting on the fence about spending more money to attend shows this summer should find a way to make it happen. I am quite sure you will not be disappointed. I appreciate the opportunity to share my thoughts with you. Matt Giller
