I like Mark singing "Geeetah" Not sure the brass section are on Money For Nothing though, it is a straight rock song!!! More importantly, why has Mark just got one shirt this tour? did he forget to pack another one?

At least it looks better than the hugely oversized yellow shirt he had during the Emmylou Harris tour.

Quote from: Knopflerfan on May 08, 2019, 08:23:51 AMThanks for these Knopflerfan!Every one of these videos is great! Loved MFN and BIA is even better than last night - I was enthralled! As I have previously said, BIA has not been one of my favourites for some time, but after hearing it on the last two shows, I hope it will be played at one of my concerts!

Best version since 2002 !

Best version since 2002 !Yeah, I quite like the brassies on WAM but it just kills Speedway. It's always the same when Mark introduces a new member; they are slotted into songs where they don't fit. Square pegs in rounds holes. Memories of Paul Franklin on BIA and MFN etc.

What a night !I got 2 new experiences:1/audio live streaming...2/I initiated the run of bulls, and was the first one to reach the spot just below MK, where I watched MFN, BIA and GH. That was something.I love the setlist, I of course would much prefer to have TR, but after all I heard it a lot before, which is not the case of most songs played now. I actually love all live renditions, except NDT and CBC which are skippers.Talking about NDT, what they did tonight was cruel. When I noticed it was skipped, I was joyful, given false hope that it would be replaced by either something new, or at least Silvertown back.I fully respect that MK wants to shorten the show sometimes, hey, he gave us 2.10 hours tonight, which is still quite long ! But why on Earth he chooses to skip Silvertown, which is a 18-year overdue jewel that everybody loves and is well played, instead of the dull CBC that nobody would miss, is beyond my comprehension. Any clue anyone ?Anyway, I look at the bright side of things, and I am still very happy that I have attended Barcelona for TR and SB, and these two french shows for BIA. Next one for me Strasbourg ! PS: I convey a message from ds1984. When he comes back here, he will be very touch on the moaning
