Bought the ticket now. Should hopefully be a great show.
This is the most expensive concert ticket I've ever bought.
Karnivool usually charge around $40...

Agree with ya there Gnuey , for 135 blips you'd want Tantric sex thrown in with Trudie Sting as well

Of course.
That's not a bad price for a 'big name' musician touring out here though. AC/DC, Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi and U2 have all charged more recently. Bands or artists from generations past really do take advantage of their nostalgia factor.

Agreed. I fucking hate Sting the pompous twat. Loved The Police but since he went solo it has just been one pile of shite after another. Stick with hugging the trees you fucktard.

I'd be most interested in his Police stuff, but some of his solo work is still alright.
Thankfully this performance will feature a number of his best tracks reworked into this new format.
And I've never seen an orchestra play live before, so it'll be interesting to see the Sydney Symphony.

Saw The Police in Croke Park a couple of years ago. Absolute shite
One of the most boring concerts I was ever at.

Sorry mate but the last decent album springsteen did was "The River"...after that it's all been downhill - except for the live album/s...
got a good booty which rocks
New Steve Miller is V.Good - the cover is crap etc...but the music is excellent Satriani guests....
