Trivia
Bring On The Night and Driven To Tears are switched on this recording.
This concert was not sold out, which was quite a disappointment.
NIKE gave free clothes to the band, but each band member was supposed to wear something on stage. Sting chose a sleeveless shirt, Stewart Copeland chose some socks (from three different pairs presented to him), Andy Summers chose a trouser.
Ron Mann saved Stewart's socks after the concert.
Much of Sting's between song chat or song introductions involved the British tabloid press who had been hounding him and Trudie or his recent court case against his publishers.
About 45 minutes of the concert was originally shown on Channel Four tv show 'the tube' in January 1983.
Bono joined the band on stage for the end of 'Invisible Sun'.
