The Police - Part Two

So, to follow up my concert review from the last post below, check out these YouTube pirate videos from the Seattle Police show (I think these are the night after I saw them) and from the nights before in Vancouver.



The first clip of Dee Doo Doo Doo (lame song but a good example here) shows how they are farting around with the song in a lower key and right when this short clip ends, they bump up to the original key. Check it.



The second is a short clip of the jam in When the World is Running Down.



The third is the coolest I found so far. Dig it at about 2:40 on the clock when Stuart comes in with full kit and then they (again) bump the song up to the original key, add some new funky riffs and then add an Andy Summers solo. Check this version against the original and you will see what I am talking about regarding how they have changed the arrangements on all of the songs - in a great way in my opinion. The only thing I don't like about this clip is that Sting looks a bit like the 'pansy' Copeland called him after one of these shows, and Summers looks a bit hesitant, body language wise. At the show I saw, they seemed much more comfy onstage. Whatev!

Do a YouTube search for "Police Vancouver" if you want more. There are tons and tons of clips...
