Rock and roll hall of fame

[holaknopfler]

I highly doubt there will be a performance, MK has stated many times that he has no interest in DS coming back together whatsoever

[knopflertom]

Call me crazy, but for some reason I can see David and Mark perform together again. But I don't think he would play with Alan at all.
So: Mark, John, Guy, David and Pick(?)

Nobody cares about Alan anyway. I've always liked David, he's a good musician and it seems like he has let his resentments with Mark go as time went by.

Sorry for the offtpic, but could someone please tell me why MK and AC aren't friends anymore or even 'enemies'?

No one actually knows anything about the reality of Mk and ACs relationship however:

AC has not been involved in any solo MK project or even the DS charity shows in 2002 ish w

Terminal of Tribute to appears to be a direct lyrical shot at "tribute bands" and some pretty direct words to someone who could be Alan Clark

I can't see anything more substantive than that but there is a lot of speculation. I've never heard Alan talk ill of MK in an interview, though he is full of himself when talking about his capabilities.

I know it isn't really "solo MK project", but Alan played on NHB's Swan hunter in 1993, and on MK's guitar masterclass CIRCA 1998 I guess ?
Does this mean that at that time, they were still "friends" (at least in touch) ?

Mark said he works with Guy, because they haven't had a single argument... Translation: Guy does what Mark wants and he's in business. Apparently, if your opinion is different while working with MK you end up working in McDonald's in tribute bands. I'm not sure this is what happened, but...

You can't compose something together without a battle, so I'm pretty sure Clark and Mark had some arguments in the process which resulted in epic songs in the 80s, but now it results in one guy slamming other in lyrics. Also creative battle, but on different sides.

Seem to recall AC also played with MK at the launch of Shearer's Bar, 2005.

Yes, they performed "Going Home" (as they already did for a MK masterclass by the past) and if my memory is correct, this is their last public appearance together.

My main problem is now Mark doesn't seem to be able to properly play the old stuff, the required energy is gone (just watch Rockpalast '79 - and that is even not their best night).

A decade earlier I would have dreamed to witness the original four piece appearing on stage and then addities members (Alan, Guy, Chris) for the next songs.

Even by 2007 Mark's speed and agility was gone and he couldn't play like he used to. It would be painful to watch him have a go at In The Gallery or Down To The Waterline now.

for a moment I had believed it, but I confess it is a great desire

I believe there has been bands before who have been inducted without playing a single note on the ceremony. ABBA just to name one. MK will come, collect the award, do a nice speech and fly back home.
