Sofa so good for Sting gig

A COMFORTABLE sofa and four armchairs are part of pop icon Sting's set of requests for his performance at the Edinburgh Playhouse.

The 59-year-old will be accompanied by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra tomorrow night.

The star's rider also features 300kg of ice, 120 large towels and 10 full-length mirrors, as well as 66 folding chairs and 24 banquet tables with white linen.

A small number of tickets are still available for the show.
