Two of the most respected rock artists of their era, Sting and Peter Gabriel, will co-headline the Marcus Amphitheater Sunday, July 10, as part of a large tour planned for this summer. Their "Rock Paper Scissors" tour, which reunites the headlines who first toured together in the '80s, "will find Sting and Peter Gabriel performing both separately and together, playing their own songs as well as melding their bands to explore each other’s most celebrated hits," according to a press release.
“What intrigues me is that you get a good bunch of musicians together and interesting things will happen,” Gabriel is quoted in the release.
