No sharing the stage! Nice "surprise".  :'(

Or maybe, Mark had to visit the toilet facilities just as the encore started? When you gotta go, you gotta go.

Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

well Mark could have gone in one of two ways with the setlist and he has decided to go the solo direction and leave the ds stuff at home.Yes slightly disappointing that different ds songs not played recently didn't come out.Still 2 new songs to look forward to can't be bad.Don't really understand MK's motivation to travel around Europe to play for an hour each night at this stage in his career.Hey,but I am glad he has.

Nobody has said much about the new songs. How are they? Tempo? Topic?

Isaac's first blog entry is online:

http://blog.isaac.shabtay.com/2011/10/concert-day-o-dublin-ireland-october-6.html?spref=tw

So the first new song seems to be another Les Paul "rocker", and new song number 2 is called "Privateering" (Isaac is definite about this) and is played
with an acoustic layout and with Uillean Pipes - Isaac called the second song "an amazing dramatic piece (in C minor)".

This only for the ones who won't go to read the blog. So I believe him about the song title. Quote:  ("Remember that name.

Thanks to Wikipedia.


A privateer is a private person or ship authorized by a government by letters of marque to attack foreign shipping during wartime. Privateering was a way of mobilizing armed ships and sailors without having to spend public money or commit naval officers. They were of great benefit to a smaller naval power or one facing an enemy dependent on trade: they disrupted commerce and pressured the enemy to deploy warships to protect merchant trade against commerce raiders. The cost was borne by investors hoping to profit from prize money earned from captured cargo and vessels. The proceeds would be distributed among the privateer's investors, officers and crew. It has been argued that privateering was a less destructive and wasteful form of warfare, because the goal was to capture ships rather than to sink them.[1]

So another maritime related song.
I love his songs related to ships & the sea.
Looking forward to hearing it.

Cheers. BBB

Woaw exciting thread!

I'm somehow convinced that MK saw this tour as a perfect opportunity to play some shows without bringing up the oldies. Is it a good thing? Well, I like the songs of both worlds, but things have changed (Dylan reference! ;-)) as MK has been writing so many new songs and the new material deserves to be played. One new song seems to be a rocker which is a great thing, because my concern that MK would stick to quiet folky songs in the future turned out to be unfounded.

There may be something interesting in the pipeline: imagine the new album comes as a deluxe edition containing a live release from this tour in addition to an interview DVD?!

Well apart from the pan intended references to all the related MK songs containing "Private", I guess this is a new song from the soundtrack "Private peaceful" that he has been working since March.
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

Isaac says that Mark played the Danelectro with a slide. No Les Paul I think, but still sounds good to me!

Huh? What do you mean by saying that? MK's a musician who loves to play. 70 minutes is better than nothing. To him too. ;)

Great setlist, by the way. Glad he skipped the usual Straits cover songs. If some of you still miss them, you could always join a Straits concert:lol (But of course he could have dug out some hardly-never-before-played DS oldies. That would have been fun.)

Any pics from the show? I'm a bit curious about the cyan coloured Les Paul, ref. Isaac. And MK's shirt, of course ;)

I'm not attending any of the Dylan-shows (the first MK-tour I skip since I discovered MK in the 80ies), and that's of course due to him not coming to Norway this time. (His Bobness had some shows here in July or August, so I guess he ended his 2011 Norwegian Tour then.) But my Dylan-loving uncle and his wife (my ant) was at the show in Dublin, so I'm looking forward to hearing from them soon.

(By the way: Hi, everyone! Cool to see you all again!)
