Sting and Andy Summers fly to the USA today using the cheap Laker Skytrain company (Stewart is already there visiting his father). They arrive late at the airport from where Kim Turner will drive them straight to CBGB's. They have to do a quick soundcheck in front of the audience.

Zecca Esquibel (from the Cherry Vanilla band) was in the audience that night.
Gregg Gerson (Son's drummer): "We played the one show opening for The Police. ... Stewart's front kick drum head was torn but the sound was fabulous. Charlie Martin was the engineer who designed and mixed all the shows in the early years at CBGB's."
