..I have never seen him in person..ever ( I don't need to)

Yes you do, Roland!    Nothing is as good as seeing MK playing live in front of you!   Not any video or YouTube clip or any live recording comes anywhere close to seeing and hearing him playing live!   Give yourself a treat and get a ticket for the next Newcastle show, when it comes!   :)

Honestly Val..I know you from Guy's site..I just do not like going out that much these days.  I really had enough travelling in my life and big crowds disturb me.  But of course yes I can well imagine and no doubt he is worth seeing.  I am a little tight fisted with money too.  As you know the UK is not a cheap place to live and my family is my first priority.

first time lucky? Some of the other artists are so popular and with recent works. Lets wait and see. I don't think they will make it. But a chance to see the original line up play again if they are chosen

Would be a nice touch in their 40th Anniversary year 2018.

+1, I bet Radiohead will take this one. Nothing I would cry about though... But I do wait when Mark would receive his knighthood nomination.

Have they been nominated before or is this the first time?

I think that he has made steps towards it, OBE is just 2 steps away. But I think that he couldn't care less for either

i do like this bit though:
The ceremony could also mark the first Dire Straits performance since their 1995 split,
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

Wow, the word "could" here is so vague I didn't even notice it to be honest. No way it could really happen, unless it has something to do with the "secret project".

I am not waiting on a reunion, but if it would happen for this, why not?

If so, I hope somebody at the ceremony, preferably Mark himself, would tell at last, that there's no any major difference between DS and MK. He could continue with DS, he could be MK right from the start. The funniest thing is how to determine the lineup? Do they mean the first Dire Straits performance since their 1995 split as in with MK and John Illsley? Or MK with David, Pick and John? Or the early 90s lineup? Or what's happening? :lol

What was the band before the split anyway? Mark, John, Clark & Guy? He obviously can't play with Alan and David anymore, so should it be just Mark, John and Guy? Oh my, I'm so confused. Please, no.

Ain't gonna happen, we all know why...

1. Dire Straits and Bon Jovi are not 'cool'.
2. They probably know Mark wouldn't play live at the ceremony with Alan or David.
3. They surely know Mark couldn't care less...

Yes, I saw that. I don't see Mark sharing the stage with Alan and David...
