« Last post by jbaent on May 03, 2024, 08:15:57 AM »How disappointing, I presumed it was going to be the band video for 'All Comers' which we saw at the ODR promo event in London.
Maybe later on the day.
I still think they might release the whole video press kit for the record, because the already uploaded videos are clearly cut.

Mark Knopfler Discussion Forum / Re: MK on Brexit
« Last post by dustyvalentino on May 03, 2024, 06:54:27 AM »How come the mag article has been posted here while you have banned others?
This is a weekly TV guide with stock photos and a handful of quotes.
Guitarist was a cover story and full interview with a dedicated photo shoot into which a great deal of effort and expense were clearly applied.
To me they are not even remotely comparable but if you prefer we can implement a blanket ban on posting magazine articles.
They are both in mags which you have to pay for so in reality there is no difference.
I didn't ask for any kind of ban but was curious why some articles were allowed and others not.
Look.
This forum isn’t run by professionals.
It’s run by a small group of fans.
It was established by a small group of fans.
It is paid for by a small group of fans.
As we are not professionals we have to use our non-professional judgement. Sometimes we get it right, sometimes we get it wrong.
At the end of the day it’s me that will have to stand up in court and state my defence if lawyers get involved in this, not you. And in this case I decided I could reasonably argue that no MK fan would have bought the Radio Times just for this tiny feature. I could not have made the same case for the Guitarist magazine for example, or Uncut.
So you can agree or disagree with the decisions I and the others mods make, but at the end of the day, give us a fucking break eh mate? We’re in deep shit financially if lawyers get involved, not you.

« Last post by vgonis on May 03, 2024, 01:32:01 AM »I was thinking that all this time, the UK press that I often read is not very favourable towards MK. They usually write a small piece that is so generic that could be describing any artist and release, and more often than I like to see, they have the axe on the table and just let you know indirectly, that they are too kind to be using it.
In Greece as well, the press people, are not very fond of MK. There is actually no music press in Greece anymore, at least not like Uncut, Mojo, etc. Everything went bust after 2010. But the journalists that survived and kept on writing on blogs, fanzines and newspaper music columns, are of a generation that consider MK and the likes, (Phil Collins, Eric Clapton, etc) too unfashionable because these journalists seem to think that punk, new wave, post rock and the currents that come from those music genres, are the genuine ones and every other musician that kept on doing the rock thing, is a dinosaur, but of the boring kind. Imagine that! For example Nirvana are already more than 35 years old and yet they consider them the high point of music of the last 50 years. If this isn't shortsightedness, I don't know what is.
I have written a couple of times to Uncut to complain about the way they handle the reviews when it comes to MK and DS, because i find insulting to see them award 9/10 to albums that are forgotten the very next day and influence nobody at all, let alone have minimum sales and even fewer fans, just because they have journalists that have this mentality to promote things just because they sound new, forgetting that they should also sound good. I am tired of trying these albums and being deeply disappointed by their lack of quality. I even wondered if there is no journalist in those magazines, that actually like MK, in order to give them the albums to review, instead of giving them to know it all snobs.
Sorry for the nagging.
