I thought we weren't going to be able to take pics at this venue but they were really cool about it so we snagged a few but were busy enjoying the show.

We had 2nd row, almost dead on center stage. The front row was only 15 seats and our row was technically front row as we had no one in front of us and we had our own section of "barrier" to stand at about 6' from the stage. :cool:

I was worried about the age of the guys and declining vocals, energy etc but they really delivered.
Sting is still about 90% in the vocal department and Peter is probably about 70% but he brought his vocals down to a range he can comfortably hit.

The energy was outstanding and they played a non-stop 2:45 show. :dance:
PG had most of his crew there including Tony Levin and David Rhodes. Would have been over the top if the could have booked Manu Katche.

If you get the chance to catch any leg of the tour, do it. It's well worth it.

Yeah I had flashes of that movie run through my head. He's still surprisingly thin and fit for an older gent.
I was quite impressed with his vocals as well.

Sting still looks pretty much the same but who was that Uncle Fester dude that kept interrupting him?


I still can't get used to Peter Gabriel as an old dude, still think of him as this:

I hear ya. I was used to his looks from earlier in life up to the Us/Secret World tour.
Next gig was in '03 and I couldn't believe how much he aged.

Fester... :funnier:
