First Look: The Police are back!

Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland play at The Police's first reunion concertThe trio is back.

Ever since The Police thrilled the world by playing Roxanne at the Grammies this year, rockers globally have been in wait for the reunion tour.

And their World Tour kicked off in style -- with a sold-out concert with 20,000 fans -- in Vancouver, Canada on May 28.

Sting's son Joe Sumner, lead vocalist for a band called Fiction Plane, sounded a lot like his father as he opened for the reuniting trio.

The three-man group, the biggest band in the world when they split in 1984, features Sting on vocals and bass, Andy Summers on guitar and Stewart Copeland on the drums.

They played all the classics.

And, if the euphoric opening reviews are to be believed, every little thing they do is still magic.
