Trivia
Bring On The Night was rehearsed during the soundcheck.
Right before the concert the setlist was visible on a monitor under the stage. Bring On The Night was to open the show, after it was left out completely in Marseille. Danny Quatrochi brought Sting's mini-guitar onstage, but it was removed soon after.
The show started with the more powerful opening from 2007: Bob Marley, lights, the gong and Message In A Bottle.
From the start it was evident that all musicians were still hugely enjoying this tour. Worries about Sting's beard (i.e. not caring anymore?) were unfounded. At least the not-caring part - the beard was horrible.
The Police were laughing, communicating and improvising like they had the time of their life - and that was rewarded by a very loud Mannheim audience.
Bring On The Night was eventually played as the first encore. Sting's difficulties with finger-picking today were forgotten with the great new chorus.
