OmegaMachine's Louisville Review...

WOW! That was the most excellent concert I have ever witnessed in my 16 years of life so far. Sting, Andy, and Stewart were in top shape and were all smiles.

We got the cheapest seats available and were sat so far away that we couldn't even see the screens very well. They were just awful seats... especially because of the delay between the video screens and the music we heard (sound travels slower than light). Just as "Don't Stand" started, a guy with an ID badge started running around the crappy seats and handing out, to our amazement, FLOOR SEATS!!! Apparently, they didn't sell many $90 seats so they gave all the people with terrible seats a complimentary upgrade. So my dad and I ran like schoolchildren to section 124 (from 318) and were soon standing atop some bleachers and could see the whole thing!

So after that was done, I really got into the concert. Before it felt like you were watching it on TV,but now we were IN the concert. Sting's voice was in top shape and there was not a sliver of cracking. He talked about how he was able to name the winning Kentucky Derby horse a couple years ago, Giacomo (after his son).

Andy was as usual, no change from the St. Louis show. He smiled a lot more though, and seemed very happy to be where he was.

And then there was Stewart... He was in top shape tonight, not one faltering move on his part. He even took a drink of Gatorade in one hand in the middle of a song and continued playing with the other hand. At the end, he pointed at a camera and made some funny faces also.

And there was a FLAG SIGHTING! Not the SC.net flag, but the Happy B-Day from SC.net Flag! Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe I saw it near the very front on the left hand side (is that right Dive?). I nearly had a cow after seeing it, especially after I saw the picture of it on my cell phone from the forum.

So overall and A+ performance from the boys. This concert is proof that there is little or no friction between them now. I saw too much smiling and even some jokes shared between Andy and Sting during a guitar solo for there to be a measurable amount of friction between them.

Off to bed!

Compared to Phoenix, this was amazing.

Compared to most concerts I've seen in the past 10 years, this was amazing.

Thanks for cranking it up for Churchill Downs.

"Voices Inside My Head/When the World is Running Down."

Phenomenal. Thanks Andy. Sting ... excellent bass/foundation.

Arizona jammed. Outside is better.

They proved that tonight.

Oh, my gosh, you people are hurting me!! I NEED to see another show. I'm looking forward to more accounts. OmegaMachine--happenings like that are what make concerts (and bands) legendary forever in your mind. Congratulations! These guys are on fire, no doubt about it. Pretty great for 3 guys who don't like each other very much!! (heh, heh) :roll:

Holy Crap. I got invited to go to a Toby Keith concert at the last minute and missed this breaking news! Damn, I can't wait for the pics! I knew i should have stayed. Although my ass did get grabbed a few times by some hotties at the show, so I almost wished I'd stayed home. ;)

I just dropped off GSC at the bus depot about an hour ago and she is on the way to Cleveland!

They burned tonight.. Lots of laughs, sound was excellent and all was well. They rocked.. plain and simple. They rocked.

ThePolice.com has a good picture of Stewart in his Leroy Coolbreeze shirt. It's in the Virtual Ticket section

by **TheEqualizer** on 15 Jul 2007 06:54

ThePolice.com has a link to the Courier Journal for an additional 40 pics from the Churchill Downs show. However, only two are of Stewart. There are more pics of Joe Sumner than of Stewart. Probably close to 30 are of Sting.

I am glad that FP had another good show tonight, they are really good.

Hey Dive, where did you all set? I could feel a presence in the Krypton force that there were members in the area.. ha ha.

I am still awake because they rocked Louisville tonight...

By the way, Stewart was intense, nice to see him close up. All of them were amazing.
