Sting Returns To His Newcastle Roots
Filed under: Music, Entertainment and Sting

Sting was the surprise guest of honor Sunday, December 20, 2009 for a very special performance in his hometown of Newcastle for Kathryn Tickell’s Surprise Party at the Sage Gateshead. Sting performed the following mix of six old and new songs from The Police and his solo catalog on classical guitar with support from Kathryn Tickell’s band including lovely arrangements for violin and northumbrian pipes.

The Snow It Melts The Soonest
Fields Of Gold
Cherry Tree Carol
Alone With My Thoughts This Evening (intro only to I Was Brought To My Senses)
Every Breath You Take
Message In A Bottle (encore)
