Le Zenith - Caen, France

by Benjamin Grimonprez on April ?, 1996

Ok, the set list as I remember it, a good balance between the two last albums and his greatest hits.

  1. The Hounds Of Winter
  2. I Hung My Head
  3. I Was Brought To My Senses
  4. Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
  5. Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot
  6. Synchronicity II
  7. Seven Days
  8. If You Love Somebody Set Them Free
  9. Roxanne (oh non, pas Roxanne!)
  10. Twenty Five To Midnight
  11. Englishman In New York
  12. The Bed's Too Big Without You
  13. You Still Touch Me
  14. Mad About You
  15. This Cowboy Song / When The World Is Running Down...
  16. If I Ever Lose My Faith In You
  17. She's Too Good For Me
  18. Nothing 'Bout Me
  19. Lithium Sunset
  20. Fragile

Well, I'm not sure for the order, I don't mind and nobody cares.

It was my first Sting concert and I really enjoyed it, the sound was great and Sting played some of my favourite songs (Mad about you hounds of winter, I was brought to my senses, Seven days...) but I missed "I'm so happy..." and "Valparaiso".

I just can't stand listening to "Roxanne" anymore (except guitar solo) and it has been a pity that everybody in the Zenith seemed to wake up for this song only (Well that's not really true, but...)

I liked the pictures on the background especially the old tree (visible in the album) and the keyboards during "When the world is running..."

The show was simple and intimate. I can ensure that Sting keeps the same behaviour whether the cameras are there or not. He likes to be surprized by the audience's reaction (people made a "Hiyoyo" after a "I had a dream last night" and Sting said "C'est bien!" at the end of the song); well, he wants more than "Roxaa-no" !

Salut!
