Regardless, it looks like everyone will have an opportunity to see them. That June 30th date in New Orleans would be a fun weekend. Since they're doing Bonnaroo, perhaps they'll end up at ACL too, like Tom Petty did. I'm sure they'll play Houston and San Antonio too.

It's going to end up being 60-80 dates in North America. Apparently, the guys are getting along so great (what a wonder a $150m advance guarantee check for the tour will do) that they agreed to do a fall leg of North America along with other non-Europe international locales beyond the initial contract. Basically (as you said) if you want to see the Police this summer, you'll have a chance to. It's going to be a great year for every Police fan.
I was SHOCKED- SHOCKED- they ended up playing the the festival in Tennessee- I'm not sure they are going to play Austin City Limits, though- unless they shell out the huge dough Bonnaroo did. Bank on a show at Toyota Center- not sure they will hit Austin or San Antone.
