Sting and Peter Gabriel take 10,000 through decades of musical magic...
We’re all winners in Sting and Peter Gabriel’s musical version of Rock Paper Scissors. It’s the name of their tour, though the two British icons didn’t actually play the game during Sunday’s stop at Rexall Place. They did, however, share the stage for almost three hours - taking turns playing songs from their catalogues, sometimes even covering each other’s tunes...

Peter Gabriel and Sting combine for a magical night of music in Calgary...
It was a fairly easy transition to make. Almost like going from one excellent Calgary Folk Music Festival workshop on Prince’s Island to another, perhaps larger, and more star-studded one over the bridge and a several blocks down the street. In fact, it was exactly like that. And quite honestly one of the most memorable and magical four-hour runs of...

Sting & Peter Gabriel blend like old friends at the Key...
The Peter Gabriel/Sting “Rock Paper Scissors” tour that came to KeyArena on July 21 was an unusual concert. The idea was to merge their bands and songs, and even have each artist sing a few of the other’s hits. In the end, it offered a lot of bang for the buck, and a two-song guest spot by a Seattle legend...

Sting and Peter Gabriel are a perfect blend at the Hollywood Bowl...
Early in their respective careers, Sting and Peter Gabriel seemed to come from parallel universes. Gabriel first gained fame fronting arty and oh-so-serious progressive rock band Genesis, while Sting led the bleach-blond, effervescent ska-pop trio the Police...

Peter Gabriel, Sting are Sledgehammers!
Nostalgia reigns at Lake Tahoe, the scenic and romantic destination resort spot on the California-Nevada border. Sometimes the entertainment here can be more about great memories and less an ethereal thrill of witnessing something superb, unique and contemporary. There was the fat Elvis in 1976 and a raspy Bob Dylan in 2009. However, Peter Gabriel and Sting performed together in...

Sting, Peter Gabriel prove to be brilliant teammates...
Sting and Peter Gabriel played Rock Paper Scissors. And guess who came out on top? It was the fans. The two Rock and Roll Hall of Famers delivered nearly three hours of classic material when they brought their Rock Paper Scissors North American Tour to the SAP Center in San Jose on Thursday... This was not a case where two...

Sting and Peter Gabriel Had Faith in Each Other at Pepsi Center...
Early in Sting and Peter Gabriel’s Pepsi Center show, which was part of their Rock Paper Scissors tour, Gabriel told the audience that the set would be “a little like karaoke night in Denver.” Gabriel’s band, dressed in black with red stripes on parts of their clothing, was the red team while Sting’s band was the blue team. “You can...

Sting, Peter Gabriel go great together on Summerfest's closing night...
Peter Gabriel and Sting may be longtime friends. But co-headlining Summerfest's closing night Sunday at the Marcus Amphitheater, Gabriel kiddingly implied they were enemies. "We have in fact the red team and the blue team," Gabriel said, joking that the audience had color-coded score cards they could hold up to award each headliner points...

Sting and Peter Gabriel full of synergy at the United Center...
The menacing synths, haunting vocals and hypnotic percussion of Peter Gabriel's "The Rhythm of the Heat" started the evening, the singer stationary, cloaked in shadows behind his keyboard. Several minutes later, Sting took the spotlight, bass in hand, for his peppy "If I Ever Lose My Faith In You," a song that could not have been more dissimilar. But after...

Rock Paper Scissors – Two Englishmen in Quebec via New York and Solsbury Hill...
Whether a meeting of the musical masterminds or just a playful boys’ night out, the Rock Paper Scissors tour that brought British rock icons Sting and Peter Gabriel to the same stage made for a hell of an opening night for this year’s Festival d’été de Québec...
