European leg of Sting's 3.0 tour opens in Zagreb - review from Muzika.hr
Sting in Zagreb: modest, relaxed and excellent. Sting has become a regular guest in Zagreb, so we got his concert again, which coincided with the date of the England-Croatia match at the World Cup. What kind of Englishman would he be if he wasn't interested in football, so it all started a few minutes after 8pm, so that it could...

SUMMONER'S TALES...
"I've managed throughout the years to keep my songs going because I've injected life into them, changed the tempo, changed the key, made things... I don't know, music is a very flexible system for me, a sort of modular system. You can add bits, take bits off, switch them around, and I enjoy doing that; not only arranging the song, but arranging for the stage."
During his time in Amsterdam, ARTE captured Sting's breathtaking performance at the Rijksmuseum, creating a stunning live film that premiered on ARTE's VOD platform on March 5 before broadcasting across the network in Germany and France.
The performance will also receive a physical release on CD and vinyl, titled Sting – The Night Watch: Live at the Rijksmuseum, with pre-orders launching March 5 ahead of the June 26 release. The full performance can be watched here.
