Quick review:
Nice concert, glad I went. Would probably not have been worth traveling farther or paying more for...
Sound not great-- about what I'm used to from an opening act.
I think both artists are about bringing their music to their fans rather than nailing the arena experience to the wall. Somewhere in the middle would have been good.
Sting-- better singer (flawless, actually), Paul-- better voice.
Put a rocker and a folk singer together to harmonize and the rocker needs to stay a little farther from the mic.
Audience-- pretty homogenously 40s and 50s, pretty even m/f split-- practically no-one had their kids in tow, which I'm not used to.
