Sting - Live In Rio - 1987




Band/Artist: Sting 
Where: Maracanã Stadium, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
When: November 20, 1987

Band:
Sting: Vocals, Guitar,
Steve Coleman: Saxophone
Kenny Kirkland: Keyboards
Delmar Brown: Keyboards
Jeff Lee Campbell: Lead guitar
Tracy Ann Wornworth: Bass guitar
Mino Cinelu: Percussion
Marvin Smith: Drums
Dolette McDonald: Backing vocals


I was 14 years old and this was my first concert...What a great start! It was a sold out show at Maracana Stadium, but I confess that Sting was not one of my favorite artists. My older sister is a The Police fan, and I went to the show to follow her and, of course, to participate in an event with huge proportions.

Paul McCartney - Live in Rio - April 21, 1990



Band/Artist: Paul McCartney
Where: Maracanã Stadium, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
When: April 21, 1990

By Silvio Rodrigues

Great memories from this one. I confess that I’m not a Beatles fan, but this show meant a lot, after all, it was a Beatle in Brazil, so why not attend the show? I remember that my mother said “I followed their success and now my son is going to see Paul McCartney!” What an honor!!!

MR. BIG in SAO PAULO - Concert Review*
By Silvio Rodrigues

From the first minute of Daddy, Brother, Lover, Litlle Boy until the final minute of Shy Boy, Mr. Big delivered 2 hours of fun for the 4500 people that attended the show in a real cold night in Sao Paulo. They are a real proof that sometimes a reunion can be motivated by friendship and musicianship and not for the money, like MANY bands do.
