    Yes, it seems a bit of a cliche but the concerts were truly amazing. Despite the skepticism of many Sting fans, he really pulled it off. The recently released album pales in comparison to the live performances. It's the best he's ever sounded and he's much more interactive , funny than he was with the Police - a much happier human being. It shows. He's singing a 3 hour show - double his usual length with absolutely no vocal issues. It's unheard of for him.

    re exposure: It helps when the lighting is consistent and clean - no coloured strobes and flashy light shows. The orchestra's got to be able to read the music - bonus for photographers. Laughing.gif

    Nice shots Patti. I am thinking that Andy might have a run for his money with Sting photos ;)
