The Police - filming in Tokyo
Photo or image related to event
Date: 1980-02-22
Location: Tokyo, Japan
Attendees: The Police

The Police shoot a promotional video at Aoyama Studio, for the new single So Lonely. In that video, Sting did a "HARAKIRI" ceremony, which was his idea. A japanese man from Alfa Record showed him how to do it. These video clips were not used in the official promotional videos - but promotional stills from the Harakiri ceremony can be found in lots of magazines.

After Sting's "HARAKIRI", Andy Summers tried to be a "Sumo-Wrestler". He entered the team "Ohyama" at Koiwa (at the northeast of Tokyo).

(The book The Police In Japan mentions that the wrestling took place today. In Andy's book I'll Be Watching You he mentions that the wrestling happened on 1980-02-23 in the morning. Both is possible...)
