Trivia
The setlist and its order is quite different to other 1983 concerts.
Early flyers and posters announced Simple Minds and not Chicago-based band Ministry.
This show, like some others on the 1983-1984 Synchronicity Tour was a matinee show.
In the evening there was an after show party at the Park West Hotel. While Andy, Stewart, Miles and Ian attended the event (as did the support acts and Robin Zander from Cheap Trick), Sting didn't.
A magazine clipping (probably Billboard) lists the cost for such a huge concert event - including talent, rent, labor, ads, stage, security, ticket commissions, restoring the turf, permits, catering, insurance, payroll taxes, medical expenses, limousines, lighting, buses and recording licenses it was about US$ 650.000 !
