The Police subsequently went on to become
one of the world's biggest bands. They played Aylesbury again at very
short notice in July 82 as a warm up to their huge Gateshead Stadium gig
resulting in an all night queue in Aylesbury Cattle Market. By 1984 the
band had effectively split and played their last gigs in 1986. Sting went on to have a hugely successful solo
career. Apart from playing at each others weddings spontaneously (and
still arguing judging by the Behind the Music programme, they reformed in
2007 and went onto play the UK's biggest arenas and Stadiums. In 2008 they
will play their last ever UK gigs at the Isle of Wight Festival and then Hyde
Park.
