Trivia

During the soundcheck Sting changed the lyrics of Every Breath You Take: "oh can't you see - my dog has fleas" ...

While The Police were giving one of many interviews Stewart Copeland and Sting got into a fight over a newspaper. Falling onto the stage floor Stewart accidentally broke one of Sting's ribs. Sting noticed this a few days later.

There were 67.000 people in the audience.

While playing Shea Stadium Sting decided to stop playing with The Police, because this overwhelming event was as far as the band could possibly go.

There was an aftershow party which went until about 4am the next day.
