unknown male - background vocals, tambourine

Notes:
Recorded from the floor about 20 m from the stage, very slightly off center to Dominic's side. Lots of clapping along on this one. I couldn't move. But it could be worse. At least it's mostly in rhythm. Very Police heavy setlist. "Synchronicity II" is such a melancholy song (in a way) already that, to me, Dominic's new guitar part was almost a bit too much to take emotionally for a set opener. But hats off to him for this fresh idea. Josh Freese is simply awesome, a force of nature. I hope he stays on the team for a long time. He even manages to breathe some new life into "Every Breath You Take" with his new C part. I was a little disappointed that "Down, Down, Down" was dropped from the setlist, I would have liked to hear this live, great lyric and vocals on the record.
