The Police are set to perform at Live Earth USA Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey this Saturday, July 7th 2007. After a long wait, Police fans have been given another opportunity to go out and see them play live during their current world tour.
Live Earth will probably be their biggest gig and as I look through their tour dates I see they'll be playing at Fenway Park in Boston for two nights - July 28th and 29th. I've been to Fenway Park to watch "my team" the Red Sox play (Wow, can that Dice-K pitch!). If you like the Red Sox and The Police, then that would be the show to go to - if tickets are still available.
Then again, from what I've been reading recently, there's been some speculation as to whether or not The Police will even finish their reunion tour. It seems band members Sting (Gordon Sumner) (vocals, bass), Andy Summers (guitar) and Stewart Copeland (drums) have been a bit frosty at times on stage according to some not so great reviews of their live show.
Also, Sting's son Joe Sumner (his band Fiction Plane is supporting The Police) was quoted in the press regarding tensions in the band and now onlookers can only speculate all the more now that their MTV Unplugged recording has been postponed according to The Police website.
Who knows what will happen, maybe all of this is just hype. I'll be interested, though, to watch their set for Live Earth (on TV). I'll be looking out for any onstage antics as well as listening for those familiar songs, like "Walking on the Moon."
