With that photo you have: Mark has the least amount of hair, John looking the oldest, Guy with the worst hair, and Hal looking like Richard Wright :)
If those 4 got together for one final Dire Straits song performance, it would have to be Private Investigations, and that would give each player a time to shine.

As someone who has the same hairstyle as MK, I think Guy’s hair looks good!

Really nice photo that John posted on his Instagram account...
All looking very well - but that's not the MK that was on the Dion video. That video must of been made a few years ago??!!

On the Dion video MK looks like he did in 2016 even though his fingers seem to be playing to the music.  In any case he seems to wear specs all the time these days.  Definitely an old video!

Mark in CGI?  :think

Nice photo!!!!

I have to say though, he looks absolutely shattered. If John can't handle a book launch, a reunion tour is probably a bit beyond him.....

I'm the only one who doesn't understand what's so shattered and pissed about John on these photos? Looks like a normal 72 y old after a couple of pints of beer.

As I'm reading the book I can't help but think how hard it would be for them to "make it" today, if not impossible. They're so lucky to be in that moment in that country, in this environment. So I agree with Mark, who was talking about that in his opening statement.
