After all these years, I still love going to concerts. Last night was no exception.
It was the final Police show ever, with the B-52's. I have seen the B's only a handful of times, but their tunes are great and they still rock.
I have seen the Police many times. I was even fortunate to see them at a now closed club called The Bottom Line in NYC.in 1979. Here is the ad from the archives:
APRIL 3-4, 1979
THE POLICE
* The show on April 4 was broadcast on WNEW F.M.
They blew the roof off of Madison Square Garden last night. They even did 2 cover tunes I never heard them do, Sunshine of Your Love and Purple Haze. Just amazing.
There were 2 groups I always hoped would get back together, The Police or Pink Floyd.
Aside for getting back together for that show last year, I doubt Floyd would ever get back on the road. But I am glad the Police did. Saw them twice last year and now the final show ever. Thank god for rock and roll. And these guys ROCKED!!!

Hey Smoke Master,
The "52's" Rule Man.
Fred Schneider rocks the scroat and taint all at once. A great party band. No b/s just good ole fun.
I used to really dig the Police but I think they only re-united for the money. Too bad man.
Hey, I saw some pictures from your past blogs. You seem like a rocker. Maybe a cross between Jerry Gacia and that fat dude from Crosby, Stills, and Nash. What type of music do you play ? And do you play out in the Jersey Shore area ? I'd like to check out your sound man.
Keep Rockin'Dude.
