I heard this is the first time he has played this song solo. I like this version and its way closer to the original song than it was on the reunion tour. Stewart tinkering with his extra percussion set will be missed though.
Not that I am the most knowledgeable observer, yet it seems as though most of those people who truly can recognize magnificent drumming often hold Vinnie's skills in high regard.
This lineup did a few shows late May, but since Vinnie will return to touring with Jeff Beck in July, Josh Freese will be on drums at the few gigs Sting has lined up that month. But Miller and Sancious will remain in the lineup.
Yes indeed. That's the Ten Summoner's Tales lineup - reunited with barely any rehearsal time. How great do they sound under such circumstances? I admire the sound of Vinnie's drumming - so full, so precise, so crisp.
yes, Back To The Bass. i'll be at the first Philly show. last time I saw Vinnie with Sting was way back in 2003 and i cannot wait!

Dam where was this version during the recent Police tour? This sounds more like the Police sound from the Synchronicity tour.

Hahaahah... I HAVE AAAAAALLLLLL IDEA!!!
Stewart and Andy gives to he song another atmosphere: in '83 a powerful atmosphere, in the '07-'08 tour an epic atmosphere.
