Recording information

A lot of footage from this day is featured in the official VHS video Around The World.

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.

In the backstage scenes of Around The World Sting was wearing a t-shirt just like the one shown here.
