YES...  I am sure I want to reply to this old thread... 

So, I wasn't aware of this thread until today when I was talking with Sweetsurrender on the phone about my upcoming trip, and also about our hopes to see MK in the US this Fall, when I mentioned that was so excited about the upcoming concerts that I had a couple dreams about MK. 

The first one was when Mark and the band stopped by my house on their way to their next gig, and he asked if he could leave some of the equipment for me to keep for him (no idea why, this was just the dream).  He greeted me with a nice hug and we talked for just a bit, and then I started showing the other guys around so that they could get the equipment stored.  It was some time later that I realized Mark was surprised that I hadn't asked for pictures or autographs, and so he decided to leave in order to get to the show on time.  I woke up rather disappointed that I didn't get a chance to say goodbye (or get a picture or autograph).

A few nights ago I had another dream where I met Mark at a concert, and THIS time I asked for a few pictures with him.  We posed for some really cute/funny photos, but when I went to review the shots (still in my dream), I learned that the camera had malfunctioned and I didn't have any pictures of us.   :'(

Both dreams, MK was very nice, and rather chatty. 

And I definitely think it is worthwhile resurrecting this old thread...  I laughed pretty hard while reading the earlier comments!  :D ;D :'( :D

It is peculiar that I haven't yet posted in this because I remember quite clearly that I have written my MK dream at AMIT. But maybe this was also a dream...
OK, I must have seen at least two MK dreams, but I only remember vividly one of them. I was at a second hand record store, looking for DS & MK LPs and CDs in pristine condition. I was feeling rather angry, because I already had them all, but MK had signed them all,  right in the middle of the covers and ruined them !!!!! I was about to leave rather disappointed because I couldn't find anything with a clear cover, (can't recall if they were all signed, rendering the clear ones collectible and more expensive-this is the fetish side of me speaking...) when a seemingly depressed MK entered the store and came straight to me and started talking to me like we were old friends (which in the dream was quite normal, because we were good friends, but I had the feelingthat he was one of the annoying kind!!!) He was asking me about his latest LP both music and cover and I was giving him the slip, because I didn't have the time to listen to it and told him something about the cover. Next thing I know, we were out on the street and he was thanking me about the help I have provided???
Now what do you make out of this?
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

It sounds more like daydreaming to me!  ;D I don't think it counts. We want to see what the subconscious has to say.  ;)

Last night I had a weird dream. In the 2,5 hours I slept because I still have a horrible jetlag.
I was in a concert from MK. Doing live setlist. But he was playing really unexpected songs, all songs he never played live and also covers from others. Those covers I didn't recognize, only knew it were covers, because I knew it wasn't DS or MK, I know them all of course.

During sending my live setlist I had to write down the whole songs instead of abbreviations, so that already took a lot of time.
Then trying to find out what those unknown songs were. It really took a lot of time and I couldn't make it possible to keep the live setlist up to date   ::) I started to panic that you all couldn't follow it anymore and because of that it took even more time  :(

So I only slept a couple of hours and in that time I was very busy  :-\

I used to imagine not dream I guess about meeting the man himself and what I would do and say if and when the event ever occurred...

The date was Friday 27th September 2013 and at a lovely little venue not far away from me!!

what I imagined might happen one day most certainly DID!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;)

(The added bonuses apart from just meeting him was the chat we had and then the shake of the hand too!! - never ever to be forgotten!!!!!)

Mark (and band) came over to my house again last night.  He seems to be making this a bit of a habit ;)

He wasn't feeling well at first, but I made a nice dinner and we all enjoyed great conversation.   We took a lot of pictures of us and the guys.  Had a really wonderful time. 

 :D ;D :think

Not yet but I usually don't dream or I don't remember the whole thing but it's not about MK or DS!

Hi you
Nice to bring this post back.

I hardly remember the dreams I dream, but I vaguelly remind of dreaming about MK a few times.

But onde I had the most vivid song not about him, but about a new DS release. After I listened to "Calling Elves", wich was not released as a single down here in Brazil, but just as an advanced promo from the then upcoming album, I dreamt about the booklet artwork from "On every street". My imagens were indeed very similar to the real thing. I actually even thought about the type font which was used in the linner notes. It was courier new, which I think is very similar to the actual work - I don't know which font is.

Last January, I had a similar dream about Privateering, not so vivid though.
Love over gold, mind over matter
