Clad in a sheer gray long-sleeved top, black vest, pants and boots, Gordon Matthew Thomas Summer, more popularly known as Sting, kicked off the three hour show with three of his most popular hits, If I Ever Lose My Faith In You, Every Little Thing She does Is Magic, and Englishman In New York. With an opening salvo like that it didn’t take much to drive the audience to their feet, and that’s exactly what happened, with matching cheers, applause, and sing-along action, as the Grammy-award winning singer-songwriter, together with his band, guitarist Dominic Miller, drummer Vinnie Calauita, violinist Peter Tickell, Jo Lawry on backing vocals and keyboardist David Sancious, followed their opening salvo with songs Seven Days, Demolition Man (from Sting’s former band The Police), I Hung My Head and The End Of The Game. Sting also played songs from his former band Police, like Driven To Tears and Message In A Bottle. Despite the romantic nature of nearly all of Sting’s songs, it was the slower, more sentimental tunes like Fragile and Fields Of Gold that really put the audience in a soulful mood as they waved their glow sticks in the dark.
