Title: Marks left hand injury
Post by: boriszhukov on July 26, 2016, 02:04:44 PM

I was wathcing the great video of the concert from Padova 2015.  MK has a supporting bandage on his left wrist.  Anyone knows if this is something he caugh on tour or does the injury stem from the motorcycle accident?

Didn't he wear support on both wrists during the 2015 tour?  It all started during the 2011 Dylan tour didn't it?   After the first couple of shows he started wearing support on one wrist, then by the time of 2013 tour he wore support on both.  Soon we will have the return of the headband!

I imagine the day, when unable to play his guitar, he will introduce the younger Knopfler and just sing. Or not even that. The danger of becoming a brand name.  ;)  Hmmmm......

but at Manchester 2015 he didn't where them , probably to see if it made any difference , probably a bit of support to help  old tried wrists and fingers (I would imagine), or it might just be sweatbands , who knows ,

I  know Clapton is havening tendonitis, problems ,so forming certain chords hurts him. so may be having a similar problem
