Yes, nice christmas tree, too!  ;D

So your version was freshly inspired by attending the last tour, wasn't it? I just wonder how many people in the audience recognized the song?

You're right there yes:) I've heard some great reply's all around: 'Who wrote this song, it's great' 'I want to hear more from you' 'What's the song, the person who wrote this must be very talented'. I've infected them with the Knopfler Virus! ;D Not many people did recognise it but there were certainly a bunch of people who did, and told me that they went to some concerts and said it was great, so: proud me!:)

Great Lars!

What amp and effects? (It is not so important, because it sounds great because of your playing and not because of your set up)

Oh it is a bit important as well:) I'm playing through a Marshall Haze 30. Built in effect, a very tiny bit reverb and gain. Little bit bass, middle and treble low. It is tuned to live sound now because I use a bit more bass in bigger places to correct the loss of the fat sound. You just have to try some things and then you will get the sound you're looking for!
