Trivia
There were 2.300 people at this sold-out concert.
Mike Keneally played guitar in Frank Zappa's band in 1988. He remembers this:
"Sting left a note for Frank after the show thanking him for inviting him onstage, and it ended with "if you can get me the music for the song The Idiot Bastard Son you won't be disappointed - love, Mr. Sting." (Frank had called him Mr. Sting onstage, as you heard in that clip.) Frank showed us the note and wished that he had a copy of the music he could send him right away and blow his mind. I remembered that that song was in "The Frank Zappa Songbook Vol. 1," which had come out in 1973 and which I had a copy of at home, so I called my wife to see if she could Xerox it and mail it to me on the road. She did that one better by taking the book to her office and faxing the sheet music for that song - in 1988! - to the next hotel we were staying at, and I was able to hand the music to Frank the next day, which pleased/surprised him quite a bit, and he got the music to Sting shortly thereafter.
Four years later I was on tour with Dweezil and Ahmet in Europe, and while trawling the record stores on a day off I found a live CD bootleg of Sting from a tour that had happened several years previously, and it included a live version of "The Idiot Bastard Son," sung by Sting with absolutely gorgeous piano accompaniment from Kenny Kirkland. Really beautiful actually."
