Recording information

There is a partial recording of this concert.

Trivia

In the morning Sting records foreign versions of De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da at Miami's Criteria Studios.

The Police fly to Buenos Aires later.

This is the only concert in Argentina that happened on the day it was originally scheduled to take place on. The other gigs were re-scheduled. As Sting was ill the week before The Police wanted to cancel all their South American dates. But the promoter from Argentina convinced the band to come to Argentina. As this was a last minute decision and equipment had to be moved to Argentina they re-scheduled the Obras show and the Mar del Plata show.

Newspapers announced this concert for 9:30pm.
