After reading all your posts for so long, I finally got to see Sting - twice! He appeared on Saturday (23 Sept) at the Sun City SuperBowl, a smallish venue (capacity 11 000). Hy husband and I had standing-room tickets, and because we got there early were lucky enough to get to the second row. It was great to be close enough to see the sweat and spit. I tried to see the bracelet that Sting wears with his watch, but it was behind the bass all the time, and could only make out that it is two silver rings, with a brass band between them I couldn't see any inscription.
There was no support act, and the show started half an hour late, but then it Rocked ! The band were in high spirits, and seemed to be genuinely having fun. Sting was wearing the grey cargo pants and red tank top, and looked good - white hair and all. Anyone else notice the little zip at the back of the tank top ? Cute! Dominic played like a dream, but looked a bit spaced out. At one point he pointed at someone in the crowd, and tossed something to them. Wonder what it could have been... It wasn't his plectrum - he tossed that later.
The set list seems to have been the same as the Central Park Concert, except that it started with 1000 Years. ie.
The show was 1 hour, 45 minutes, and I enjoyed every minute of it!
BTW, I found this is the SA press, which I thought was amusing: ' Addressing a packed press conference, Sting said he had adapted to the stress of a super star lifestyle and was no longer concerned with what critics had to say about him. "I used to write back to critics... but I'm too old for that now... you can say what you want." '
