I'm not sure I can handle hearing one more time that Mark just "had to have a red electric guitar", that he "still remembers what the Fender catalogs smell like", etc.
You know just as Paul McCartney passed away in the late 60s, there are grounds for thinking Mark has dissapeared too (if only into tax exile) - hence, there is now an MK double dishing out the standard lines in all interviews. You'll find that David Knopfler is responsible for all songs from Kill To Get Crimson onwards....
