  Thanks USTAS. I see they used a few seconds of my video for thier story yesterday on NZTV. The intro to So far from the Clyde.  The one I posted in the forum yesterday also.

Yolanda, send my best wishes to David also. Hope he will be well soon.
Thanks for your review! Ingrid

Val, thanks for the tip, luckily I check AMIT as soon as I get to work ( ) so i was able to watch MK in teh office.

Nice interview, although you can tell MK isn't really comfortable doiung these things.

One thing though - even though it's just a year since I met him backstage at Newcastle, for the first time today I thought he looked old. 

[superval99]

Yes, I thought he looked a bit older, but he probably had been up very early and I agree, he isn't comfortable with these interviews.  He was a wee bit political too, criticising the government on it's treatment of war veterans and rightly so imo!       

[dustyvalentino]

Yes, that was interesting. In years past he would never have been political, but he was political in that German guitar interview last year too.

An interesting bit is where he mentioned why he created the sound for the opening of 'Down To The Waterline' from the 1st DS album.
He wanted to try and re-create the sound of the horns from the boats that he used to hear in the morning from his house.
I'm sure i've never heard this comment before, although i'm sure someone here will correct me.
A very brief interview as well i thought, with only a very small clip of music.
And if you watch up until the very last minute, he was very eager to leave the studio, getting up as soon as the interview was over.

Always GREAT to see him live on the box though.

Cheers   BBB

I've heard the foghorn remark before - can't remember where or when, perhaps someone can jog my memory.  The reason I remember it is because I grew up in a similar place (close to the river) in Liverpool and I used to listen to the foghorns on dark foggy mornings too!   I remember when I first heard Mark mention the foghorns, that I had something in common with him!   

[dustyvalentino]

Did you manage to record it Val?

[superval99]

Yes, but I've not played it back yet.   If someone else has recorded it and is better at uploading than me, then OK, otherwise I'll do my best! 

[dustyvalentino]

If need be you can send the DVD to me and I can stick it on the tracker.

[superval99]

Thanks Matt!   I think I'll accept your offer, if you don't mind!    

Just played it back on my computer and he looked much younger!  Must be my television!  LOL    Personally, I don't think these interviewers know anything much about MK.  It sounded like he was ONLY appearing at the RAH and didn't mention anywhere else.  They could have mentioned that he had just last week played the Princes Trust concert for charity for example - but no, typical BBC!  

[dustyvalentino]

No probs Val.

I'm going home to Aberdeen for the weekend, so unless I get it tomorrow it will be next week before I can upload it. Don't think there's a rush though, it will probably be available on the iPlayer and BBC website in the meantime.

[Best Brown Baggies]

You can see why Mark hates doing these sort of things. You almost cringe when you hear the presenter asking the same stupid questions, although i suppose they are only doing their job.
