OT: My Police-aversary

Postby Chatchka on 24 Nov 2009 19:56

26 years ago today I saw the Police for the first time at Kemper Arena in Kansas City on Thanksgiving Night!

http://www.policefans.org/Police_wiki/i ... 1983-11-24

UB40 opened, and as I remember, none of us could figure out how to say their name. LAME. (UB40 was later the first concert that I took my little sister to when she turned 12.)

What a show! To attend this show on the night of a family holiday took epic negotiations between me and my mom. She still feels allowing me to attend was some sort of parental failure on her part, whereas I feel that NOT taking my daughter to a show during the reunion tour was a parental failure. Especially when my daughter requests Walking on the Moon when we are driving around in the car.

BTW, I was older during the entire Police reunion tour, than my mom was when she caved and allowed me to go see them the first time, back in 1983. :mrgreen: Sometimes when she visits, I wear the concert t-shirt from this show just to annoy her. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Cool indeed. 8)

UB40 were brilliant live. I got to see them a bit later in the eighties but didn't see The Police live 'til 2007. To see them both on the same night would have been well worth family disapproval. :lol:
