The Police kicked off their world tour tonight in Vancouver and I was one of the lucky 20,000 or so to be there. Thanks to John, we got preferred seats (row 10 floor!) and Chari and I went as our spouses just didn’t consider themselves big enough fans – their loss ;). What a show. Of course, it should be for the price:
But hey, by about halfway through the show it didn’t matter. Forget that, two songs into the show and it was worth it. Message In A Bottle to open, closing with Next To You (in the second encore). Here’s what they played:

- Synchronicity II
- Spirits (In the Material World)
- Voices Inside My Head/When the World is Running Down (Medley)
- Don’t Stand So Close to Me
- Driven to Tears

- Truth Hits Everybody
- Every Little Thing She Does is Magic
- Wrapped Around Your Finger
- Bed’s Too Big Without You
- Murder By Numbers
