{{Disambig}}
This is a very basic template to use for articles about specific performance dates. Please make sure to fill in all CAPITALIZED TEXT that you can with the appropriate info (ex: replace BAND NAME with [[The Police]], [[Oysterhead]], etc); if you don't know then please mark it '''unknown''' so that someone else can fill it in later, do not delete the specific table section.
 
  
The article should be named following our standard calendar format. (Ex: "YYYY-MM-DD") If more than one event has taken place on that date, name the article "YYYY-MM-DD (Artist/band name performance)" and make sure there is a disambiguation page in place at the appropriate "YYYY-MM-DD" location.

On [[1981-09-12]], [[Sting]] performed at [[The Theatre Royal]] in London, England, UK.
 
 
 
=Setlist=
 
[[Sting]] performed two solo songs each night: [[Roxanne]] and [[Message In A Bottle]]
 
 
 
He also joined the all star band The Secret Police at the end of each concert to perform [[I Shall Be Relased]].
 
 
 
=Recording information=
 
The shows were filmed by Julian Temple. The movie [[The Secret Policeman's Other Ball (movie) | The Secret Policeman's Other Ball]] was released in 1982.
 
 
 
In 1982 selected tracks were released on an LP called [[The Secret Policeman's Other Ball (live album) | The Secret Policeman's Other Ball]] / [[The Secret Policeman's Concert]] (depending on the country).
 
 
 
=Trivia=
 
The Secret Policeman's Other Ball was the fourth of Amnesty International's fund-raising comedy galas (which were started in 1976 by John Cleese).
 
 
 
[[Sting]] was approached by producer Martin Lewis and agreed to perform on all four scheduled shows.
 
 
 
The audience was aware that there would be musical guests at this comedy gala, but the organizers did not announce which musicians would be appearing.
 
 
 
When [[Sting]] was about to perform he was positioned in the middle of the empty stage. He would begin to sing [[Roxanne]] and just then he would be hit by a spotlight. The effect on the audience was amazing.
