You don't have to wear that dress tonight. Instead, save it for Aug. 7, when the Police will play the final show of their large-scale reunion tour at Madison Square Garden.
Don't start lining up in front of the Garden just yet, however. Tickets to the show, which will feature seminal Atlanta, GA-born post-punks the B-52s as the opening act, will only be available June 14 through a pledged donation to local public television outlets Thirteen/WNET and WLIW21. Tickets will be rewarded to $750, $500, $350, and $150 donation levels. Check your bank account balance and snatch up those tickets -- it's for a great cause.

OMG!
I was checking out more info on The Police's last concert and I saw this cool website: www.charityfolks.com Right now they are auctioning the chance to get on stage with them during their soundcheck AND after soundcheck sit in the absolute best seats in the house with 2 FRONT ROW tickets to see The Police perform at the Nikon at Jones Beach Theater in Jones Beach, NY on August 4th!! How cool is that, and all the money they get goes to the UNITUS charity. I really believe this is an AWSOME offer, so people check it out and rock on!
