Thank you for having this site - I came home after seeing Sting tonight (for the third time) and am so jazzed I can't sleep! He was incredible. He just keeping getting better & better. What a showman. The set were beautiful the medleys amazing -- his voice richer than ever - He owned the whole theater -- everyone singing with him -- anticipating his every move. Sting if you are out there THANK YOU!!!
Had to give you an update on two concerts I attended.
I live in Cary, NC. The closest I could get to Sting was in Charlotte, NC and Richmond, Va. So, I went to both concerts. Yes, two nights in row. (Both Charlotte and Richmond are 3 hours away from Cary - am I devoted or what!)
First Charlotte - The concert was held in Ovens Auditorium. After I arrived I realized that Sting was performing in smaller facilities this tour, which was a wonderful idea. Ovens has great acoustics! The sound was the best I've ever heard. Although I was in the back of the auditorium, I was still not far from stage and the view was great. As always, Sting's performance was outstanding. The mix of the song selection was terrific. I wish you could have been there. The bad part was that I was the only one who stood through the whole performance. (Good thing I was in the back.) The crowd was a little quite, more like you'd expect at a Simon and Garfunkle concert (ha). Finally, they got off their butts and livened up.
Richmond - Landmark Theater - Again, another "Theater" setting. Bigger then Ovens (2 Balconies), but, again, no bad seats. I had great seats and was able to stand much of the time. The crowd was more lively but, the sound was not great. A lot of echo. I'm sure the Band could tell a big difference. The great part was that I rushed the stage after the first encore (by the way, there were three encores for both performances) and was able to shake Sting's and Dominic's hands!! I have washed my hand since last night, but, it was hard.
I thought the band, and especially Sting, was very personable and it makes me proud to be a fan.
Just thought I'd give you some feedback on the "Southern" tour.
You know how the Grateful Dead fans are called "Dead Heads"? I'm a Sting Head!
