Sting

So last night we went to see Sting in concert here in Calgary. Overall it was a good show. Annie Lennox was the opening act and she rocked. I'd even venture to say that she stole the show. She got multiple standing ovations during her performance.

Ole Sting played a few Police songs such as Roxane, Every Break You Take, etc. Unfortunately his solo music is a bit on the mundane side. When you go to a concert you want to jam and Sting's music at times is a bit dry. It was one of the few concerts I've gone to where the audience sat through half the show.

It also got me thinking how good the Dave Matthews concert was when we went to see them in Toronto in late June. 3 hours of fantastic music. That's a concert I'll gladly pay money for.

Here's other concerts I'd love to go see:

Pink Floyd - Rumors have been around for years that Waters and Gilmour will put aside their differences and Pink Floyd will finally tour one more time. Not gonna happen but you never know. Pink Floyd's last album and tour was in 1994...10 years. Well, at least I can dream.

The Police - Copeland and Sting hate each other. Not gonna happen. Again, I can dream.
