You were there Pottel?

[ileschner]

Best setlist since Hillbillies tour? I really liked the golden heart one. Long Highway, A Love Idea, Darling Pretty, Imelda, Are We in Trouble Now, Je Suis Desole, and so on.

Anyway, I really like this set list =)

[Pottel]

No, only the last shows of 1999, but ey are amongst my bsolute favourite knopfler recordings..

He was quote happy plating in all those small places and you can hear that in the recordings:-)

R&J is great on this tour.  His vocal has more passion and the end solo is better too.  Even if you aren't fond of the song it's worth it for the end solo surely?  That's pure MK.

[holaknopfler]

I think his overall singing is better than E.g. the GL tour

I agree, R&J on this tour is the best for a long time.   He seems to be singing it with much more feeling and the end solo is to die for!  I wouldn't want it to be dropped - I love it!

Hmm..well..I guess that comment can create a healthy discussion

Wish he could let M go, at least a couple of times this tour

Agree, he could play two other songs instead of M

Yupp, exactly my point!
