You probably know from my previous posts that we had tickets to see the Police in concert. The concert was this Monday night and I'm just now getting around to sharing.
Before the concert me, Chris and my two friends (and coworkers) went to a great Mediterranean restaurant where we shared about 12 little appetizers and then 2 desserts...it was quite yummy.
We had never heard of the opening band, a group called FictionPlane, and I couldn't figure out how a band we'd never heard of came to open for The Police. Come to find out, the lead singer of the group is Sting's son...that all makes sense now.
Our seats were actually really good...we were on the second level but right to the left of the stage and right above us practically was a huge screen so we got to see a lot of close ups of Sting...yay!*
The concert was amazing...maybe one of the best I've ever seen. It's hard to believe that the sound they produce comes from just 3 band members. Stewart (the drummer) had a regular drum set but behind him was an entire percussion area and several times he jumped between the two.
Sting's voice is absolutely incredible and I really think they sounded better live than recorded, which is most often not the case.
So amazed that we had the opportunity to go to the concert! It's one I will never forget!
And sorry...no pics...we couldn't bring any cameras into the concert and the camera on the phone just didn't do it.
