Sting Kicks Off 2024 “Sting 3.0 Tour” with Hits and Deep Cuts: Video + Setlist

Sting took to the stage stage in Dresden, Germany on Saturday night to kick off his “Sting 3.0” power trio tour (grab tickets here), delivering a set of hits and deep cuts.

The “Sting 3.0″ tour sees the former Police frontman joined by guitarist and longtime collaborator Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas. Opening with the first live performance of The Police’s “Voices Inside My Head” since 2006, Sting immediately followed up with the band’s 1979 classic “Message In a Bottle.” From there, the set included more bust-outs, like “When the Angels Fall” (for the first time since 1992) and “Never Coming Home” (for the first time since 2012), as well as solo hits like “Fields of Gold,” and all The Police bops you’d like to hear, like “Every Breath You Take” and “Roxanne.”

Fan-captured footage of the performance show the trio sounding in fine form, filling out the songs’ arrangements with impressive umph. Unsurprisingly, Stings’ bass was the star of the show, as he was given the sonic room to provide counter melodies and booming basslines with impact. Check out the full setlist and watch videos of the show below.
