Sounds like a great show. How come they can make a DVD of a small charity even pay, but a DVD of a Mark Knopfler world tour is too expensive?  I don't think it's because the cost is too expensive, but they want to make more profit. Wishes Allen

Sounds like a great night!!! What an amazing surprise if you were in the audience, but didn't know Knopfler was coming on. I know i'd have soiled my under garments.  Thanks for posting the news and the you tube footage. Makes me even more excited about the tour now. Cheers BBB

Btw. Any ideas as to the full band line up? Was Guy there? Also, don't know about anyone else, but i thought the sax was a bit over powering!

thanks again to our official Fan forum for informing us in time of this event  And the gasps and cheers which went up yesterday as Newcastle-bred Mark Knopfler made his first appearance on stage, seemed to suggest that actor Tim Healy and his fellow concert organisers had managed to keep the big secret just thatUnbelievable - on my doorstep - can't believe the secret didn't get out. Am gobsmacked!

Hi all
The band was:
Ray Laidlaw (drums - ex-Lindisfarne) Billy Mitchell (guitar - ex-Lindisfarne) Tom Mitchell (guitar) Fankie Gibbon (bass) Brendan Healy (keys) Jamie Squires (keys)
I'm not sure who was on sax. Also, Alan Clark is usually the MD for this show, but I don't think he was there this time. I'll find out and report back....

Oh my, that short snippet of MFN sounded awesome! Great Les Paul sound, and some nice variations on the riff. This tour is gonna be great, can't believe it looks like I'm gonna miss it.  Or is he playing a sig Strat? Good sound anyway.

Hi folks
I was a great show - the SFS gigs always are!
I should point out that Going Home was the only full song MK played on the night.
