The NEW SONGS live 2011 #SPOILER AHEAD# (bring your information pls)

[naif]

and this is so much meaning for so much people who don't live in north america or europe. they can't go knopfler's gig so this youtube things making happy millions of people. don't forget they're admiring knopfler just like you/us.

Besides...the YT versions have such crappy sound....once the various digital audio recordings hit the trackers...why go back to listen to it on YT? Mark is probably just annoyed by the quality of the recording...if PCM was concerned about competition with a possible live release..they wouldn't allow digital audio recording equipment at MK shows.

Mark's not stupid, he knew this would happen, and played the new songs anyway.

I dont think that new songs available on the net because of audience recordings will affect anything at all, in the contrary, it creates expectation.

[Rollergirl]

Not sure if I like the fact that these songs have popped up at youtube, I seem to remember someone here requested not to put them up there. Well, seems to be inevitable these days. Wait til Guy finds out and chances of a live DVD or CD will drop to zero.

I don't think this will affect decision of a live CD/DVD but what worries me is that he'll decide not to play new songs again before their release because of that.

[Jules]

Well, MK played "Why aye man" and "Quality shoe" in 2002, there were many recordings in audio and video, and he continued playing new songs before the record came out, he did with "Boom like that" in a spanish tv show in Santiago de Compostela, he did with "Secondary waltz" as well, and there were recordings in audio and video from all of them, and in youtube as well...

It doesnt affect anything regarding sales etc etc, in the contrary, is free promotion throught the net...

I agree with that.

And to my know if Mark doesn't allow filming it was said because it generate unpleasant effect on the band performing.
Contrary to BD staff, they don't chase the clip posted on YT once they are on.
The only chase done so far was the famous 2008 IEM stealth.

[Pottel]

what happened to that one?? :-)

If someone hasn't already posted - found the new tunes on Youtube



Good to read about the gigs - couldn't afford it this time   
Unless someone has a spare ticket for Hammersmith that I could buy (I wish)

Of course we have no proof if crappy yt vids and a non-dvd release are related. But my gut feeling says they probably are.
And, as a matter of fact, not only do we know Mark said the videoing would disturb the band, he also dislikes shitty quality versions of his songs. So...

Also, dusty, are you trying to imply something?

[Love Expresso]

Lyrics as I hear them please list any you find wrong:-
 PRIVATEERING  - Mark Knopfler

Look here there

[Hophead]

Sounds to me more like "Yons my Privateer...see how trim she lies" Imho of course.

[shangri la 1]

Thanks for the thoughts both seem more plausible than mine. I'm sure as we hear more versions we will get a clearer picture of the actual words.
