Sting was Stung

According to Clearsound, Sting claimed to have made a bank transfer of $6.5 million but from its own checks it appears that the sum was never paid.

The company outlined that the parties had an agreement for Sting to pay $8 million for its services, which include audio and visuals, lighting, power generation, roofing system, and pyrotechnics.

The sum was to be paid by December 22.

“Despite assurances and word-of-mouth promises, a total of only $1 million was received from Isaiah Laing, head of Supreme Promotions Ltd, organiser of Sting 2024, which was paid in three parts on December 22nd and December 23, 2024. The remaining $7 million was promised by December 24, 2024, but has not been deposited into our designated account,” said Clearsound.
