so the sting concert was last night
it was AMZAING (and thats an understatement)
it started off at the side stage where some wicked awsome local band was playing, i got their CD, yay!
the real opening act was sting's guitarist from the police
he played some song and then he was talking about how the first time her heard the national anthem it was played by jimmy hendrix and he thought it was written by him for many years. then he played it and then sting came out and they played/sung "shape of my heart" together, it was one of the most amazing things i have ever heard. it moved me (in more than one way).
then annie lennox (from eurythmics) went on. it was ok. the only part i liked was when she sung "sweet dreams"
then STING! went on. holy crap it was awesome. he sung a couple songs of his newest cd then like 4 police songs then a couple more new songs then the rest of the time it was police songs. before he started singing again he was like "cricket pavillion huh?, i guess it means something for us than you guys. see cricket is a sport. it like a cross between baseball and jepordy. it boring and no one knows what the fuck is going on" then he said "it looks like everyone here has just had sex. or is about to. and look theres couple over there having sex right now" (hehehe i wanna marry him). when they played "roxanne" they made it like 15 minutes long. it was nuts. in the middle of the song sting started scatting the song "so what" by miles davis
then there was a crazy guitar solo
during the concert i called kortnee like 3 times and left messages on her cell. (i hope she doesnt get pissed that i was calling her like at 10:30)
wow.
what a great night
i was less than 100 feet from my idol
