the royal college of music is next to the royal albert hall, few meters away

Indeed.  In fact, here's a photo I took from the back steps of the RAH when I was there during the Get Lucky tour for those interested:

You're so kind!  Film gives a bit "character" I think.

YLT being played is a good thing. That means they are comfy with it and it could be a sticky.

Kind of amazing in this day and age that none of the students filmed it and put it on YouTube. I thought everybody filmed everything these days.

Re YLT being played...Mark's playing really isn't what it was so it does very much seem he's moving onto songs where the guitar isn't the lead anymore so that it's not so obvious that those nimble fingers have aged.
I might be wrong but my guess is that the Tracker tour was the last big one, his performances will become more low key and sporadic as he enters semi retirement. Not that I blame him of course, who doesn't want to retire!

He does not retire he just let time to his fan to attend David Gilmour's solo gigs.

Indeed, I sure hope some videos will pop up in time.
They were too focused on Mark's stories and his playing  ;)

I bet it was prohibited to film anything during the masterclass.

With all that being said, RCM have a bunch of masterclasses on their channel:


But of course, we can't expect much for some reason. It's funny how we can have an audio (bad quality, but still) of a 90s era masterclass where Mark played his song about The Everly Brothers and in the era of 2010s after so many markstercasses we have nothing at all.

I got in touch with them, and sadly they confirm the masterclass wasnt filmed, therefore wont be in his youtube channel.
