Sting Performs This War Live in Chicago with Vinnie Colaiuta on Drums
In July 2003, Sting delivered an electrifying performance in Chicago, showcasing his artistry in 'This War.' This live recording came just after his studio album 'Sacred Love,' released in the fall of 2003. The album was notable for its eclectic mix, blending pop with world music influences, something Sting has always been good at. Vinnie Colaiuta, renowned for his versatility, was on drums that night, contributing to the unique arrangements that added depth to the performance. Interestingly, Sting's ability to reimagine his songs live reflects his ongoing evolution as an artist, constantly exploring new sounds and ideas. The venue, filled with fans, buzzed with anticipation, making the evening memorable not just for the music but for the shared experience between the artist and the audience.
