STING - pre-show, Turkey

This was shot just before Sting's Ten Summoner's Tales Tour concert at Izmir's Antik Tiyatro Ephesus in Turkey. This ancient amphitheatre is just around the corner from both the first library and the first whorehouse in the world. Sting would typically practice yoga before each gig. The clip is supplemented with various images of Sting doing the other thing he does before a show i.e. waiting.

@Brady2k10 huh! I didn't know that about his parents, interesting, I agree with you, I work out myself a fair bit (with weights) and my brother has actually been teaching yoga for about 35 years and I've practiced it myself in the past. Hey, I don't even remember writing that 4 years ago LOL, I may have been thinking about what I consider his arrogant approach in most interviews. I'm sure he's mellowed over the years. Long live sting, as a bass player myself though, he's never been my fave!

@Pudsy440 you made this comment over 4 years ago, but i thought id let you in on something, both of stings parents died before they hit 60. Now, genes play a big part in a humans lifespan, you watch now the power of Yoga, he wont be dying anytime soon, im a strong believer that, if your not using certain things, organs, muscles, bones etc around your body, your body begins to shut down slowly, im only 22 atm, but stings probably fitter than me in terms of health

[Brady2k10]

its never too late to start doing yoga people and trust me in todays world everyone needs something to keep them healthy and stress free and i cant think of anything better than yoga, the amount of benefits... look at all famous indian yoga teachers most of them die very old but thats how you wanna die, having lived a long healthy live, without stress without worries, its until you fully practice yoga that you realise its like a medicine for your mental and physical being

if i had the body and good looks of sting,id be paying child support to at least 50 kids by now!!some guys have all the luck...love ten summoner tails.

The calming effects of focused yoga practice are evident here as Sting does not seem bothered by those wankers arguing in the background!!

[CheapKat3]

While Sting's getting his Yoga on someone in the background is yelling about a "situation" and "money"....maybe they should all just take a few cleansing breaths, eh Sting? :)
