They played Redbud Tree at the little show in Bermondsey I believe, so more likely that than Seattle, but I hope I'm wrong. Perhaps RM will do a little Emmylou impersonation on I dug up a diamond?
I can't believe all this moaning i'm reading. Actually i can Every tour i read "same old songs", "MK never changes". "so boring we have to keep hearing SOS etc". Now he varies the set show to show and everyone continues to bitch. One sad day this outstanding musician will no longer be performing, think about that
Ruth was a brilliant addition on all three songs, that lady has a great voice. I missed SOS for the split second when I realized that it was not going to be played, and that was that. Totally not feel robbed of anything. A memorable ugly, but the audience was far too quite for a Dutch audience, Bremen and Antwerp had far better audiences, Amsterdam felt more like Bremen.Their final run from the stage was also very fast, very short goodbyes, what I did hope for and thoroughly missed was yon two crows. For me he can drop Romeo and tr to, just keep sultans as a joker.
The concert was absolutely great!Met lots of people from the forum which was nice!Ruth Moody as opener was beautiful and her addition in Mark's set was superb!!Got an autograph by Mark..Will do a full report of the adventure tomorrow!Good night
I am still in heaven. What a superb unbelievable great night it was. This was a dream, no it was real. So far the best night for me. I can't tell you how much I look forward to more and more and more.
I Think the Dutch audience are some lucky people , to witness the first collaboration with an "Guest" Like Ruth Moody during this tour,on three songs!!And yeah , back in 1978 SOS became successful first in Holland just like Dire Straits' first album, but this is a MK tour ,and I guess he wouldn't saddle us up with a SOS version were he pushed the lyrics to the famous licks only in the solo and strumming the ending C-chord ASAP.So with all respect for the comments, most of the Dutch people and DJ's are delighted to make Ruth Moody more successful ,like they did with SOS in Europe way back then .And this only costs us SOS for the first time in history and in return Mark gave us three songs accomplished with Ruth for the first time.Thanks for the trade Mark!!
