Police cantaram êxitos...

Os Police actuaram terça-feira no Estádio Nacional, em Oeiras, 27 anos depois da primeira actuação em Portugal.

Sting, Stewart Copeland e Andy Summers recordaram os clássicos, que cumpriram a tarefa de manter o trio britânico no topo, durante 30 anos. Logo na abertura, 'Message In A Bottle' levou o público ao rubro. "Tudo bom, Lisboa? Estou muito feliz por estar aqui com vocês", disse Sting, num português esforçado, aos fãs que protagonizaram uma calorosa recepção ao trio.

Nesta altura ainda imensas pessoas entravam no recinto, que ficou bastante aquém da lotação esgotada.

O alinhamento foi em formato best of, começando por 'Message In A Bottle' e terminando com 'Next To You', passando por 'Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic', 'Roxanne' ou 'Every Breath You Take'.

'Can't Stand Losing You', 'Walking On The Moon', 'De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da' e 'Voices Inside My Head' foram alguns dos muitos temas com direito a maior ovação.

No final, Sting (56 anos), Summers (64) e Copeland (55) abraçaram-se e agradeceram ao público em conjunto.

Na primeira parte do espectáculo actuaram os Fiction Plane, banda liderada por Joe Sumner, o filho de Sting, cuja voz é semelhante à do pai.
