The Police's New York, New York concert

Review by Daryll Royston.

Wow! What a great concert. I'm old enough to have seen them in their heyday, but never did. Now I am glad to say that I have seen them. They sound incredible and have more energy than most performers half their age. The crowd at Madison Square Garden was on their feet, cheering and clapping from the outset, and the band did not disappoint. They played for close to two hours and the instrumentals and vocals were tight, and the boys seemed to be having a great time-- smiling, jumping around and playing to the crowd, even to the folks with seats behind the stage. Excellent lighting effects and big-screen graphics, and the sound mix was outstanding--no complaints there. Sting sounds great, Andy was amazing, and Stewart is a machine! If they are coming to a city near you, do what you can to get tickets--it is well worth it.
