In doing so we hope to respect the memory as well as the life affirming spirit of those who fell. We shall not forget them."

J'étais au Bataclan le 13/11/2015 pour voir EODM, j'ai été blessée par plusieurs balles. Je serai ce soir 12/11/2016 au Bataclan pour le concert de Sting. Très important pour moi & pour ma reconstruction. Police est le 1er concert que j'ai vu le 11 janvier 1982 au Bourget, France. Quel symbole pour moi. Merci de venir jouer pour nous.

thank you!
It can't be a better idea. Sting is the perfect man to honor the reopening of the Bataclan. I hope I will be able to find tickets to attend the concert with my two children. We must celebrate life and sing together in memory of the victims.

Le bon mec à la bonne place!
Merci, Sting de venir chanter et partager les émotions essentielles au Bataclan. Je crois malheureusement que je n'aurai pas le courage de venir t'écouter tant ma sensibilité est meurtrie. Bon concert à tous, morts et vivants, sweet vibrations . * ° .* ~~^~~ * °.

Member exclusive - We have a limited number of tickets available for Sting.com Fan Club members. On Sunday, November 6, Sting will perform the raucous single “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You” from his new album “57th & 9th” during a taping for an upcoming episode of NBC’s “The Voice.”

You don’t have to put on the red light - merely tune your TV set to NBC - to hear Sting perform his new single “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You.” The 16-time Grammy Award winner will perform on an upcoming Season 11 episode of The Voice, TVLine has learned exclusively. The date for Sting’s guest appearance on the Emmy-winning reality singing competition is yet to be determined, but as his latest album, 57th & 9th, is set for a Nov. 11 release, it’s a safe bet he’ll rock the stage sometime before Thanksgiving.
