I agree with the pricing thing, Fred.  Also, I think you are right – you probably have a very good vantage point from your location – well done!  Yes, see you in October, for sure.  Great “meeting” you and Andrea again in Vancouver.

 

Cheers,

Bruce

There are still front row tickets available… at the back of the stage!

 

Andrea and I got Section 69, on Andy’s side, slightly to the back of the stage. Having seen the setup of the stage in Vancouver, I think those seats might be pretty good. We’re already spending $250 a pop on a couple of shows, and quite frankly, the relative value of those seats is not worth it. The cutoff between the $250 and the $95 seats doesn’t make any sense.

 

This will also be my nephews’ first Police show. What I wouldn’t give to be 13 and go to my first Police show! I was 32 when I first saw them… and that was a week ago!!!

 

See you in October Bruce!

 

P.S. I wonder how many people will dress up as cops or bees that night?

Anyone else try for tickets today for MSG in New York on October 31st?  Man, they were tough to get!  Chris Orange (on this list) was helping me today (thanks Chris).  We were both on-line at the same time, seeing who would come up with the best seats.  The “waiting time” on Ticketmaster kept increasing, not decreasing, and multiple times the system came back to us both and said no tickets were available so we started our searches again.  Chris was offered tickets in the 3rd and 4th levels while I kept coming up with nothing….and finally I got offered tickets way back on the floor and I took them.  I may have to trade up closer to the time, but at least I’m in!!  Phew.

 

Cheers,

Bruce

I have never seen Sting as exhausted as he was at the end of Next to You on opening night. He looked like he was about to keel over after the fast tempo encore. They may have killed the song before it killed Sting! It’s a shame ‘cause it’s a great closer.

 

I’m not surprised that Don’t Stand and De Do Do Do have improved – they honestly couldn’t get worst! Those two and Every Little Thing to me didn’t work. Some songs can stand to be toyed around with, but Every Little Thing lost all its power in the new version. Other re-workings such as Walking in Your Footsteps, Walking on the Moon, Invisible Sun and Wrapped worked really well.

 

We’re seeing them again in August – it will be interesting to see the changes and improvements from now till then. My wife Andrea and I were unfortunately feeling sick in Vancouver and were not able to fully appreciate the shows as much as we should have L

They dropped "Next to You"?

Ouch.

 

Murder by numbers is one of my favs, but I can see that, but dropping their famous show-ender? eek.

 

 

Thoughts?

My friend, Jock (who many of you met in Vancouver), went to the Edmonton show last night.  He said Truth Hits Everybody was back in the setlist and they dropped Murder By Numbers and Next To You.  He also said they made lots of mistakes towards the end of the show, but it was still amazing.  He also said both Don't Stand and De De Do Do were improved upon.

 

Cheers,

Bruce
