I hope he's not doing it just to bring attention to himself though T. I don't dislike a few of Sting's records, but he's an arrogant person.

Well at least the proceeds from the show're going to the survivors and relatives of those who were killed.

No one really knows, do they? Even at charity do's, someone'll expect "expenses".

I think so, yes, but it was years ago now. Not even sure where it was, but probably at a festival, or gig where others were playing as well.
