Is no. 2 George Michael? here

Thanks for all the hard work both of you though

isitenough

Yep, my first instinct after reading the question (and not the answers) was George Michael for #2.

ETA: where are my manners?! Thanks to Toniq and Catz for providing the answers.

Not sure because when I read about George Michael, it said it was his last ever UK live concert, there were more hits for the Police announcing their last concerts so maybe we need to search some more

Stargirl29

I found this and this which says 'last concert ever' (one was played in Copenhagen)

Also,maybe the wording of the question is a bit of a clue aswell. I would say George Michael is a pop star whereas The Police is a group?

Not sure though, just my view on it!

toniq

When i read the thing about George Michael, it states its his last ever large concert, ie, he wont play big arenas no-more, it didnt mean he wont play concerts again.
Not sure of Sting thing, will look xxx
ahhh.would it be what the independent music pages say? as its an independent comp?..will wander over there now xxx

toniq

Im thinking ( change of mind time) Stargirl is right, http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/george-michael-earls-court-london-908424.htmls ive scoured Independent and there is no reference to any other final concerts but George Michael, plus the linked post was from a few weeks back, so it would be recent for their avid readers to remember, thats going on the logic that they would actually expect u to look at their music pages to have this knowledge! xxx
