Trivia

This was The Police's second concert for the German TV show Rockpalast (the other was in Hamburg on 1980-01-11).

So Graham Parker & The Rumour opened this show, The Police came second and Jack Bruce finished the show.

The show was broadcast on German TV and radio.

The Police would play at the same venue again on 1981-10-02.
