Just received this email fro MarkKnopfler.com:


As a MarkKnopfler.com Down The Road Wherever album preorder/ticket presale customer you will be receiving a complimentary digital live recording from Mark's current tour. This email is to update you on the status of this offer.

The live recording itself will be a compilation of 16 tracks from some of the tour’s most memorable shows in your choice of either 320kbps MP3 or FLAC digital formats. Approximately 3 weeks after the last show, currently slated for September 22, you will be emailed a special code, link and instructions on how to claim your file.

 Thank you for being a MarkKnopfler.com customer, we look forward to delivering your digital live recording later this year.

 :thumbsup

Yeah, but it's a bit of a dissapointment to me really. I've just wanted it to be one of the shows I've been to, now I still have to buy those :(

I will buy the shows I attended anyway, but it's just a nice extra recording to have of various shows.    :)

It never was going to be YOUR concert, it was always a complimentary compilation as per previous tours...

I received that email too now when I looked, I bought pre-sale tickets.

I thought they would pick one show for you to download, and that's it.
Compilation, fine, Best of DTRW Tour then.. I'll get some complete concerts anyway.

Well that wasn't advertised as such. Didn't bought the album the previous tour through MK.com. There was just word of a future recording, no word of a compilation. So how could I have known that??

Interesting to see that the "compilation" show will feature only 16 tracks, while a single show today is 17 !!

Maybe they will shrink the setlist to average 16 songs? I hope not  :o

If they do a compilation and won't play WAM anymore, they have to pick  that from Barcelona in the compilaton...

Imagine if they after all start to play HFB/OSAAT/TM as well, only 16 songs will be a tough task to compile. Why not making a 20 song compilation? I they will play other songs, that is  :lol

What does this mean: “most memorable shows in your choice”. Can you select your own 16 songs?

Because if they give you 20 songs for FREE (!) you will probably be the first one complaining about why they don't give you 40...

"Free" is not the right type of word. Ordering the album through mk.com was way more expensive (about 40 euro's) as when I got the album from the local retailer. That's why I'm bummed out that it's just a compilation. Could have saved the cash to buy the shows I've attented.

So I'm never ordering again through Mk.com to secure a download on the next tour ( :P :P :P )

Don't understand LE's comment above, I won't complain about too less songs in the compilation, happy to get it  :thumbsup

I bought the album from HMV and bought tickets from MarkKnopfler.com, so I qualify for the compilation.

And so? The current setlist is 17 songs, 19 played so we’d miss out 3. It’s FOR FREE ladies en gentlemen, FOR FREE.

Isn’t it nice? I also received the email, bought my tickets via fairadmission.

Yep same as me, FA tickets. I like it, we should be happy they give something back, worth the extra fees for FA  :thumbsup
