#03 DTRW TOUR - Apr 28 2019 - Wizink Center, Madrid, Spain #SPOILER#

YLT is pretty rubbish live - always has been.  They must have something else in the bag for that spot in the set.

That's the Marbletown spot 

I like YLT!

Perhaps I ought to rethink my 'Convenience' breaks for Leeds & Birmingham....

I wouldn´t say that is rubbish, but is true that this kind of songs lose his "spirit" of introspection and loneliness feeling when are played on an arena in front of thousand people.

However, i think that YLT is one of the best songs that he has written over the years. Even so, i think that the song would have been perfect if MK had put a small jazzy solo before the final sax solo (a la Paul Franklin in the OES tour). But don´t ask me, i´m not the genius

But then again OES isn't marvellous either......

Don't get me wrong I really like the actual song but nothing live has ever come close to the studio version.  It's just one of those songs that benefits from studio production.  You cannot replicate the guitar fills on stage either.

The YLT riff actually sounds a bit like Clapton's Layla. They should make a rock version out of it

I like that a lot.  The sound is a lot better on this tour and Mark's guitar has a thicker sound making this song especially sound much more like it did on the OES tour.  I love the fills he plays and the outro.  Curiously it was the only song tonight that didn't sound so good.  Maybe some issue?

I'm just not keen on OES but each to their own... Now if it was WICTY well that would be amazing!!!

Oh, that´s true

Mk on fire tonight...seemed much more relaxed...
Gotta say these concerts are getting harder and harder as I approach the last one. Was just watching him tonight thinking you're irreplaceable, totally unique and am gonna miss these kind of nights so so much...

[junfo]

MK was awesome yesterday night. I was looking at him and he seemed quite younger than he is, specially comparing him to the last concerts I've been to in Madrid...

Thank you for everything Mark.

[Solid Rock]

Piper - Very special to me.....

Really nice song!

[Silvertown]

Happy to read positive comments from yesterday. It seems that quite many had opportunity to hear it.

I have always been happy whatever Knopfler plays. However, is a bit weird that they dropped WAM after one try. I guess they have played it in rehersals etc., so was it now total surprise that it did not work? I agree on comments that nowadays Mark needs easier songs to get warmed up.

And of course OSAAT would be fantastic. Is it even too personal for Mark?

Met a few AMIT people. Sorry I don't post here often
