Unfortunately no... Nobody good ever comes to Salt Lake, and Vegas ticket prices are insane...


Stratters... have you picked up Shangri-La yet?

The mood was great and Knopfler was in his ace. They played almost all their classics and loads of songs from the new album. Though he didnt play Calling Elvis, which is a bit strange.. Well I can recommend the concert. Go see it.
You lucky bastard!

Happy ya got to experience it mate

Re: Mark Knopfler is an absolute genius....

I saw Mark Knopfler in Bergen, Norway saturday. Even if Mark Knopfler's guitar was awesome, I was a litlle bit dissapointed. I'll give it 4 out of 6. The Dire Straits songs hasn't been changed since the On Every Street Tour except you don't have the pedal steel guitar which is dissapointing, but on the other hand Matt Rollings played Accordion on Brothers In Arms which was really cool. But I still miss Alan Clark and John Illsley!

Re: Mark Knopfler is an absolute genius....

Toronto show was alright. I was slightly more interested in the opening act though.
