Trivia

On the day before The Police were re-mixing Zenyatta Mondatta at Strawberry Studios South in Dorking. Stewart Copeland ate a curry meal and was already sick when the band flew back to France.

Stewart's roadie Jeff Seitz played drums at this concert and kept his head low, so most of the audience probably didn't notice that Stewart didn't play...

The Police played around midnight.
