Sting is a master of the sit-in/guest appearance

Nah, he was very well received. Sang great too. Cool surprise.

Improvement on last night. Happy faces all around. Time to try and sleep

And sting sounded great. The song and guest spot worked seamlessly in the encore

Lots of repeats though... Kinda surprised by that.

Yeah weird, but they repeated great songs, and I was so happy my friend didn't miss out on them. It was weird, the two setlists were very similar, but yeah, they rocked it anyways

Dennis Rodman was also in the house - spent the whole show sitting right next to the stage on Stone's side.

23 of 31 tonight had already been played in the Philly/ MSG run. A bit unusual given the seeming randomness of the Florida setlists

Pretty disappointed in the setlist from tonight. Show was fine, but noting individual and way too many repeats.

I guess Ed thinks that tickets for MSG are so damn hard to get that the number of people there for both nights will be minimal and/or casual fans wanting to see the hits.

There were a lot of repeats but the audience didn't seem to mind in the slightest.

Best thing I heard leaving last night: "I had no idea who any of the people that played with them were. They were kinda boring"

Heard a first timer on the way out:
