I intended to go, but was too damned busy.

Mark Knopfler has a lovely, refreshing guitar style. He brought back something that seemed to have gone astray in guitar playing.

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

I was in Verona early this month: on the 3rd I saw Mark Knopfler and on the 4th Roger Waters. Both at the Arena. Two concerts in a row by the two song-writers I like most.
Not bad...

Just curious, pinkan, is "The Arena" that ancient Roman empire-era colosseum in the center of town?

BTW, good going! I'm envious.

Yes, Stratman, it is.
Wonderful place for shows of course. Overall the classical ones. It's famous for the Aida shows for example.

Interesting.

I suppose this was when Dave met Phil Manzanera?

BTW, is Phil on this album too with Dave and Mark?

- check out single " slave to love " from boys and girls, I believe DG & Knopfler are both playing on that track too;

SM: no Manzanera on board here
