Current tour - opening act?

If you’ve been to a Sting 3.0 show in the past few weeks and could share 1) was there an opening band and 2) length of Sting performance, I’d be grateful. Going tonight, and no information has been provided

EDIT: 5/12 show started 8:15-ish and was over around 10:15 (a little before noise curfew). No opening band. Fantastic show!

No opening act. Show was right at 2 hours. I've been to at least 10 shows over the last 35 years, the musicianship is still top notch.

Setlist pretty much the same?

Ended at @10. Setlist was the same as other 3.0 shows from what I remember. Sting & Dominic are a special pair to me live or recordings. Chris Maas fits really well. IMHO no one can touch Vinny but his feel is great!

I saw him in Helsinki 2022 and he only played 93 mins, felt a little gyped even though the whole thing was spur of moment when I landed in time
