On July 31, 1982, The Police headlined the Rock on the Tyne music festival at Gateshead International Stadium, during the Ghost in the Machine World Tour. Sting, Andy Summers, and Stewart Copeland tore through an 18-song set drawing from all 4 studio albums released to that point, augmented by a horn section that added a distinctive texture to the already electrifying show. The performance carried extra significance for Sting, who noted at one point “I was born over there, just across the river,” making it as close to a hometown show as The Police ever played. It’s one of the great captured performances of a band at the absolute peak of their powers.
