Great show. Sting's voice is still in top form. The songs they dueted on made that painfully clear, as Paul struggled to keep up. Paul singing Fragile? Nope. They made a few alterations to the setlist - added Still Crazy After All These Years, dropped Love Is The Seventh Wave, added an Everly Brothers tribute at the end. Didn't really matter, it all somehow worked pretty well.

The Hounds Of Winter was astounding. Jo Lawry shined during this song. And Sting's moment was Bridge Over Troubled Water. Brilliant.

Can you name the other drummers on the stage besides Vinnie Calaiuta?

I was wondering the same thing. A younger guy, not Steve Gadd. And I think there was a percussionist to for Simon?
Was at the Forum on Saturday night. Vinnie was awesome.
Love Is The Seventh Wave went into Mother and Child Reunion with Simon coming back out on stage, that was a highlight.
Other highlights for me were Sting doing America, Hounds Of Winter with Jo Lawry, Paul Simon doing "Hearts and Bones" (one of my favorites)
Thought the blending of bands and songs was really cool, great show.
Not too impressed with the “new” Forum, and 25 buck to park was outrageous
