Recording information
There's a recording of this concert.
Trivia
This concert was originally planned to take place on 2007-10-13, but had to be rescheduled as Sting had lost his voice then.
This rescheduled date was a problem for German fans who were also interested in football / soccer. The Police played at the same time as the German national team at the European football championship.
The concert was still sold out. There were about 50.000 people in the audience.
At the end of their soundcheck around 4pm The Police jammed a lot, especially Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland.
The sound close to the stage was brilliant. People in the back of the stadium complained about the sound, which is more or less a common problem in this venue.
During the concert Sting received a note and read it to the audience: "Germany: 1 - Poland: 0". Bring On The Night was left out again as the band is not satisfied with previous live performances of this song.
After the concert Sting immediately flew back to London. In the backstage area of the LTU Arena Andy was visited by his brother and Stewart entertained a couple of lucky German disciples.
