Post by: Jarle on March 20, 2015, 11:04:00 PM
Mark will visit the Norwegian TV show "Skavlan" friday next week. He has been there several times before:

It was recorded yesterday, you know.  ;)

Kinda interesting that your favourite party leader is a big fan of MK. If I recall it correctly he told a newspaper some time ago that Alchemy was his favorite album, and his best concert memory was from a MK concert. Wondering if he asked for a autograph..

Indeed it was, heh... Well since no one from AMIT was there to tell about it I'm guessing Beryl. Being the single and all. Now I wonder which the other musicians on stage (except Guy) were.

Most people that are fans of MK's are fully normal and reasonable people. I bet Mark finally got the autograph ;D

And what a coincidence, the actor playing Mrs (Beryl) Patmore from Downton Abbey is also guesting Skavlan this Friday! Funny  ;D

Not bad!

When he visited the same show back in 2003 he did play Old Pigweed, instead of a more record-selling Why Aye Man. So Beryl is probably the best choice.

Off topic but Gunhild Stordalen is also guesting. She is quite attractive!  ;)

Well i did my research again (why has my life gone so wrong?) and found a picture of MK playing the strat with a band, so it seems live to me. Notice that he's playing the '61 instead of his signature if I'm correct

I saw a pic of MK approaching the stage where the interviewed guests were sitting so I am assuming there will be at least some chatting.

And then there's this one from Twitter which holaknopfler referred to on the 2nd page:

What? Live? It's a playback. Not even the best playback actually. I remember when one time Mark was playing with playback he was waving hands to the audience all the time and on one part of the song he actually played some licks AND waved to the audience with his right hand. That was fabulous ;D

I remember that!  It was in Italy somewhere and the audience were going crazy.  Think he was playing WII, maybe outdoor.  :think

I think it's a bit strange: Mark has just released his new record, but all the interviewer wants to do is to show video clips from Walk of Life and talk about the riff on Money for Nothing. Bad journalism...

Standard Scandinavian journalism I would say. It's been like this for ages, nothing new or fresh, never.

I couldn't find it, Knopflerfan! Or it must be me, the blind holaknopfler who misses everything due to the 'always-scrolling-too-fast' illness ;D

Hej Marikablue.

I agree with you, don't believe either this man got an autograph from MK!!! True about the voice and now that I've seen the French interview and Live from Beryl which was perfect, I think that he was maybe tired and a bit sick!! Afterall he did 3 shows in 3 differents countries in 4 days I believe. He started in France than he made Norway and last Germany!!! :wave

I wonder when he'll ever stop doing playbacks ... or have they been faking it sooooo long that they don't know right from wrong anymore?

Anyway, is there any other serious artist doing playback shows? Embarrassing and sad.

It was only the Norwegian show.  The ones from Bremen and France were live.

The playback thing had primaly to do with the show wasn't recorded at the main studio in Stockholm (it's a co-production beetween Swedish and Norwegian television, and it's of course easier to get international guests to London than Stockholm). That means lack of technics, but also studio crew because they didn't wanna take part in that particular show because of the politician that guested that night.

Interesting! So that was that the reason? Where did you find out?

Read it on Twitter a while ago. The post was about that they were a bit short on studio crew. The music on "Skavlan" has always been live otherwise.
