The Police Perform at Oakland Coliseum: Synchronicity Tour 1983

Venue: Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Location: Oakland, California, United States Date: September 10, 1983

On September 10, 1983, The Police rocked the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum during their monumental Synchronicity Tour. This live recording comes on the heels of their iconic album "Synchronicity," released earlier that year, which featured megahits like "Every Breath You Take" and "King of Pain." At this point in their career, the band was at the height of their fame, having transitioned from their early punk roots to a more polished, mainstream sound, and this concert showcased their evolution. Interestingly, this tour marked the band's last before their hiatus, making every performance feel electric, as fans savored the experience, unaware it would be years before they would see the trio perform live again. The energy in Oakland that night was palpable, reflecting the band's tight chemistry and the crowd's fervor, creating a memorable chapter in rock history.
