Stewart Copeland filmed parts of this concert.
Trivia
Chelsea needed a bass player for their gig, because theire bass player, Tim Griffin, left the band the day before the show. Sting helped them out for the whole gig (almost an hour), occasionally singing, too.
Stewart Copeland was in the audience.
The show finished with The Aces re-entering the stage for some Rolling Stones encores.
Invisible Sun was released as a 7" single in the UK today.
