According to a poster from page #13 of this thread, the road manager for The Straits is certain Terry Kilburn. What a small world.

Nope, that was a fake poster. The photo shows dire straits "legends" band, leaded by Marco Caviglia that performed a few gigs in Italy. Tour Manager was exactly Kilburn.

Yes, I thought that was a fake poster and so I didn't really believe TK was manager of The Straits!   I'm just curious to know who is!   ;)

My personal guess: Ed Bicknell but he can't march out...  ;)

Well, the photo may be outdated, but the band line up is exactly the same as the last RAH gig, so you never know.

Well, the lead guitar in the photo actually is not Reis. And you can clearly see Jack Sonni. The poster is a fake.

Yes, that's why I said they used an outdated photo. Nevermind.

Looks like the manager could be Terry Kilburn after all!    :)

How can you say for certain? Seems plausible to me that the promoter just used the first picture he could find. The rest of the info may well be correct.

Not that this means anything, but when I was queuing up
for the after show party tickets before the gig, I was talking to Ed & Terry.
They did seem to be together for the evening, but I may be wrong.
Also, not that they would, and it didn't even occur to me to ask,
they certainly didn't mention anything about managing The Straits.

Cheers. BBB

Over each other like a rash!!! :-* :o ;D
No seriously. I had a great chat with both of them.
Ed is a lovely chap, & very funny with it.
I've met Terry a couple of times now, and contrary to
what some people think, I find him a nice chap.
I was asking Ed about the NHB's, & he told me a funny
story about how he & Brendan used to get frustrated, because
Mark used to play about a beat behind, & they wanted him to
play a tad faster.
I also showed Ed my KNOPFLER tattoo,
& we both agreed I was a nerdy sad fan. Lol ;D
But in a good way!

Cheers. BBB

Couldn't find anything on the promoter website. Someone asked Terry?
