Limited tickets remain for Monday and Tuesday’s shows at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre.<\/p>\n
Gordon Sumner\u2019s connection to Vancouver stretches back close to a half century.<\/p>\n
He first performed at the Commodore Ballroom in 1979 alongside bandmates Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers, just before The Police would ascend into monolithic stardom.<\/p>\n
The trio de-camped in North Vancouver for months of rehearsals before kicking off their reunion shows in 2007.<\/p>\n
Now, the man known the world over simply as Sting\u00a0kicks off the fall leg of his Sting 3.0 concerts with a pair of gigs tonight and tomorrow at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre this week.<\/p>\n
Alas, Copeland and Summers will not round out one of the best trios in recent music history and Sting will instead be joined by guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas.<\/p>\n
The last leg of the tour wrapped up on Aug. 1 in Croatia, with a setlist that leaned mostly on Sting\u2019s solo material but with a healthy smattering of bangers by The Police: “Message in a Bottle,” “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic,” “Can’t Stand Losing You,” “So Lonely,” and of course, “Roxanne.”<\/p>\n
Tickets<\/p>\n
Monday’s\u00a0gig was on the cusp of selling out as of mid morning, with only a few dozen seats open near the front of the stage or towards the back of the venue. Tickets in Row 5 are going for close to $1,000, while the upper balcony came in at roughly $230.<\/p>\n
Somewhere around 50 to 70 tickets for Tuesday\u2019s show are available, with a pair of front-row seats listed at $1,743 a pop. Tickets on the low end are listed at $250 and up.<\/p>\n
