I saw The Police just once, in January 1982, at Madison Square Garden, but what a historic show it was. The Go Gos, who opened, had the number 1 album on the Billboard charts at the time. The Police, who headlined, had the #2 album on those charts! New Wave had arrived, commanding the charts and selling out "The World's Most Famous Arena."
This soundboard recrding captures The Police a little over 2 years earlier, at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, on November 29, 1980, 43 years ago today.

Thanks for this speedy! I wish I'd seen the Police in concert, especially when they regrouped in 2007 because I love that tour.
I wish I had seen them back in the 80's, but going to school in Walla Walla and home only for breaks meant that I missed a lot of opportunities to see a lot of bands in the 80's. I did finally get to seem them in 2008 though, when they came through Vegas!
