The Police concert chronology

The Synchronicity Tour was a 1983–1984 concert tour by The Police.

During the early dates, the band resided at a mansion in Bridgehampton, New York and were flown to the concerts.[1][2] This was the band's final tour as a working unit and one of the highest-grossing tours of the 1980s.

"I was never relaxed," drummer Stewart Copeland recalled. "I had so much anxiety. And I know how crazy that must sound to people who do real jobs."[3]

The November 2nd and 3rd shows in Atlanta were filmed and recorded for a live album and dvd.
