It's The Same Old Thing As Yesterday

June has been rather unbloggy. Sorry about that. Don't expect too much from this one, either.

I'm in Dallas right now, having just seen the Police live in concert. It was a great show. If they come within 500 miles of you, see them. It wasn't perfect. Some of their reinterpretations of their old hits were a little too chill for my taste, and oddly inappropriate for a large arena tour. Sting's son's band, Fiction Plane, opened the show very ably. I'll probably purchase the album.

Here's the setlist from Sting, Andy and Stuart's portion of the evening. Note the phrase "Third Encore." They played for nearly two hours. These guys are old, but they can still kick out the jams.
