Trivia
You had to be blonde to get in. People with other hair colours had to dye their hair or wear wigs. When The Police came out for their encores, the band members were wearing black wigs.
There was an after-show party upstairs at the Variety Arts Theatre honouring the band earning platinum Zenyatta Mondatta LPs.
In the backstage scenes of Around The World Sting was wearing a t-shirt just like the one shown here.
