How many users were at a DS/NHB/MK/MK related concert?

Just once, in Zurich July 20th 2013. Nice story.

I was sitting with two close friends at dinner time. We talked about music. I'm mainly into classical and told them: the only "rock" concert  I would ever like to go would be Mark Knopfler. My friend told me: I have a ticket for July 20, would you like to go?  I was rather surprised, even more after I saw the price on the ticket and felt I couldn't take on that offer. Finally after some friendly coaxing by good friends I went -  Exceptional musician. At the moment I am trying to illustrate some of his songs, as they are so many layered and visual.

Welcome Katinka! Well said. Mark inspires people in many ways. Nice to see another like minded addition to the AMIT community!!

Hi Katinka, great story.  You did the right choice. 
As Ingridswing said, please fell free to discuss of that memorable show and share any pics, videos, story or thoughts.
Anything that is good to keep that show alive in our hearts   

Maybe the following will remind you something
