After his Berlin concert Sting went back to the Berlin Interconti Hotel where he arrived around 1:00am. Sting and his crew went to the bar, being ignored by German TV reporter Fritz Pleitgen. After visiting the Ku-Damm (on foot and without bodyguards) and drinking a few glasses of "Berliner Weiße" Sting went to bed.

After a few hours of sleep Sting travels to Kiel with a Turboprop plane and later checks in at the Maritim Hotel.

During the soundcheck at the Ostseehalle they play Mad About You and two Peter Gabriel songs: Games Without Frontiers and Don't Give Up

After the 90 minute soundcheck Sting goes to his dressing room to practice his yoga.
