Peter Gabriel And Sting Teaming Up For North American Tour

(TeamRock Radio) Sting and Peter Gabriel will hit the road across North America for the Rock Paper Scissors tour this summer. The duo will play a string of 19 dates in June and July - having first toured together in the 80s for Amnesty International.

The duo also hint that they'll be covering and re-imagining each other's songs - and that they'll perform both individual and joint sets at each show. Sting says on his website: "The interesting thing for me is what happens to our songs when they are juxtaposed with each other's songs. What I do will change what he does and vice-versa. The songs we trade and the songs that we sing together will have an unexpected result, we hope."

Ex Genesis vocalist Gabriel adds: "For me it's partly what sounds good in that present incarnation balanced with what people want to hear. You want to try and get both sides and throw in something unfamiliar as well as the hits." See the dates here.
