Trivia
- The flyer announces two gigs at 7:30pm and 11pm. According to local promoter Gary Topp there were altogether about 1200 people attending The Police's two shows.
- Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance were in the audience for one show.
- There's a possibility that there were separate support acts for the two shows. Leroy Sibbles was a support act for the 2nd show.
- Between their two concerts The Police gave a gold record for Outlandos d'Amour to promoters Gary & Gary who continued to book them although their very first concert at the Horseshoe on 1978-11-02 only attracted 19 people!
