They had to buy tickets like everyone else. вЂњIt was whichever one they could get into,вЂќ their friend says. That night, Sting and wife, Trudie, took their kids to see either вЂњShrek the ThirdвЂќ or вЂњPirates of the Caribbean.вЂќ Why the uncertainty? They spent much of it on a yacht, according to insiders.

Tuesday, by the way, was a day off for the group in Vancouver. Previous вЂњUnpluggedвЂќ albums by artists like Eric Clapton and Neil Young have been big, big hits. Now, if the вЂњUnpluggedвЂќ show goes well, the possibility exists of an album taken from the broadcast. The rocker was apparently caught off guard by the enormous reaction Monday night, telling a friend, вЂњIt really is a big deal, isnвЂ™t it?вЂќ On Wednesday night, the group will welcome Elvis Costello and Diana Krall backstage.Д«ut apart from the celebs who are going to be making pilgrimages to their backstage area, The Police are drawing raves from everyone - including Sting. On Monday night, the group did their premiere show in Vancouver to a wildly enthusiastic audience including actors Penelope Cruz and Laurence Fishburne and rocker Eddie Vedder. The 'Unplugged' show will come at a great moment in The Police tour.

Sting appeared on вЂњUnpluggedвЂќ in 1991 as a solo act. ItвЂ™s also the first time The Police as a group have appeared on вЂњUnplugged,вЂќ since the group disbanded in 1983 and the MTV show didnвЂ™t start until 1989. вЂњItвЂ™s an all-acoustic set,вЂќ says a source. Sources tell me that the date for the show is July 13 and it will take place at a still-to-be-named location in Miami. Video: H.264 | 1920x1080i | 16:9 | 25.On the heels of their opening show in Vancouver, The Police have agreed to perform an MTV вЂњUnpluggedвЂќ set this summer. The seasoned rock vets 'understood that the time wasn't right to retire.' 'Seeing all these old fans, the new fans coming, everything was sold out,' he says. Founding guitarist Rudolf Schenker-with the group for its entire 50-year-run-says that the group, on what was to be its farewell tour in 20, decided to cancel plans for retirement in light of massive fan turnout. 'Forever and a Day' is the story of how the group is still rocking today-on the heels of its 50th Anniversary Tour-sprinkled with footage from the early years, including a historic visit with Mikhail Gorbachev at the Kremlin. The group has sold well over 20 million albums, and are one of the biggest rock acts to successfully crossover from Europe into the States, and beyond. Though the Scorpions are one of the most iconic symbols of '80s arena rock, with a name evoking the landscape of the American southwest and an arsenal of mega anthems and power ballads ('Wind of Change,' 'Still Loving You'), the band has actually been in existence since 1965 (!) and hails from Hanover, Germany. The Scorpions are playing your song, 1984's 'Rock You Like a Hurricane,' which from this point forward will be your go-to karaoke selection. You're at a concert, and your lighter is in the air. It's the '80s: your hair is big, your jeans, acid washed.The resulting documentary, 'Forever And A Day', follows the band on the road from Bangkok to Moscow, and culminates in SCORPIONS' decision to scrap their retirement plans, deciding instead to mark their 50th anniversary in 2015 with a new tour, a new album and the 'Forever And A Day' movie. For one and a half years, renowned filmmaker Katja von Garnier accompanied the SCORPIONS on what was originally supposed to be the band's farewell tour.Scorpions - Forever And A Day (2015) Blu-Ray 1080i
