Notes: Sting Injured his hand, while filming the window jumping scene in Brimstone & Treacle the previous day and, despite playing bass in Brighton the previous night, was forced to hand bass playing duties to his roadie Danny Quatrochi for this gig. "Andy's been in hospital all day. I should have been in hospital but wasn't. There's nothing wrong with Stewart!" before introducing Danny on bass before 'Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic'.

The venue, unsure of whether or not The Police would actually be able to play, left ticket stubs intact in case the gig needed to be rescheduled or refunds given. The support act was Jools Holland followed by a lengthy wait before The Police eventually took to the stage a couple of hours late. Once again, I'm afraid I have no lineage details for this one - received in a tape trade in the mid 90's.

A bit genned and hissy - and not the greatest quality to begin. There must be better quality copies of this one out there! January 2007 by Chalkfarmer
