Sting's contract, at least for the last few years he was there, was more focused on "dates" rather than money. He had a downside guarantee for $500,000 per year, which included 100 dates. Anything above that he had to be paid at $17,500 per appearance, and he did indeed participate in about 30 such appearances under that deal. His best year in the business he earned just over $1.35 million.
