When I saw him in Toronto with The Poilce Reunion, the warm up band was "Fiction Plain" which featured his son on bass and lead vocals. The influence and nurturing from his father was apparent. The kid was great
Sting has been using that worn out Precision 57' since late Police times... One of the notable musicians that does not changes his bass 5 times thru a gig and 100 times thru his career but plays one good piece for more than 25 years... He's been using various kind of basses in the Police until he found the one that works the best for him...and he's using it since then.. However, the one in this video is probably Precision 54'...his back-up bass...
I really love sting and his band. He really lives the Midas Touch. Everything he touches seems to bring magic to the listening people. Im a guitarist my self,- singing the backup, and I really think Sting with The Police or not - that man really have got talent!
I heard this song on my holiday and loved it, and when i got home, all i can remember when i hear this song is my summer memory. I love this song live, it sounds amazing!
Hey, sorry to disappoint you, im not really a fan but i think hes a nice guy, his music is not really my taste but i like this one and i like two of the police songs! (I play the piano and i sing,) if you wanna chat more, send me a personal message!
To my mind this is Sting's best line-up. Dominic Miller, David Sancious and Vinnie Colaiuta; incredible musicians. It's a shame they weren't together longer.
People have rated sting's songs as bad in the past because his lyrics were too intelligent and deep for people to understand. He's a BOSS

i have to say that i think the bass sting uses at the police reunion is the best for him.
the vintage fender fits the best to his thump, muted style of playing bass

I always thought Sting played a spector, but I absolutely adore precision basses, too.

Can someone please upload rest of the concert, or just King of Pain? I have it on VHS, but the quality on the tape isn't that good.
