At the Zénith d'Auvergne, 7,000 people came to sing with Sting...
7,000 people responded to Sting's invitation on Wednesday, November 2nd, at the Zénith d'Auvergne, in Cournon (Puy-de-Dôme).
Almost extra time. Sting has been on stage for about 90 minutes. Every breath you take brings the Zénith 7,000 fans to their feet, some of them from the very beginning, that of The Police.
Soon everyone will be leaving singing Rooooxane in their cars - it's a must, right? You've done it, say so. Just as you hummed Walking on the Moon, Shape of My Heart, Brand New Day, Message in a Bottle, Englishman in New York, and even the Marley hit that followed, "So Lonely." So many hits, part of the world pop-rock heritage, paraded, that's the word, in tight ranks on Wednesday evening, November 2nd.
Otherwise? A no-frills stage design, the songs and their performer - who still rocks skinny jeans incredibly well at over seventy - don't need much to exist other than a few very talented musicians and a big, clean sound. A great evening.

CREATE A DISPLAY NAMEIt was the first time I went alone to a concert and enjoyed every minute of it.
As I know Sting likes Sweets, I bought him this time a local product. A very kind man threw it on the podium, I hope Sting got it.
Joe opened the concert, he really worked a lot on his voice and performed with a enormous enthusiasm and positive energy
His setlist:
- Hope
- Looking for Me Looking for You
- You You You
- Don’t Change the Love
- See You Again
- Two Sisters
- Jellybean
between Joe and Sting, they’d put the on the last album from Shaggy and in fact I happen to like it.
The band members came on and then Sting, of course in his old t-shirt or what has left of it, his enthusiasm was wonderful. I’m so happy he has his microphone fixed on himself and he moved a lot on the podium and that was just great. Dominic was as usual, a real gentleman with a beautiful smile when he smiles
His setlist was:
Message In A Bottle
Englishman In Ny
Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
Intros
If It’s Love
For Her Love
Rushing Water
If I Ever Looos My Faith In You
Fields Of Gold
Spirits In The Material World

Shape Of My Heary `
What Could Have Been
Whenever I Say Your Name
