Twm, do you think that Guy will make any reference to that "guest-rumour" about Dylan? I mean, is it something about to happen, something that already happened or what?

I have no idea whatsoever what Guy may or may not post on his forum.

I have heard no specific rumours about Dylan appearing on Mark's new album. I was speculating, as I tried to make clear.

To speculate further, what about Mark appearing on Dylan's next album? If things went so well when touring together last year, I'd've thought that it was possible. Any rumours from your side?

No idea about it as my side is knopflerian and doesnt know (and doesnt mind) about Dylan at all.

About your speculation, I thought that Bob Dylan would visit MK

Do you have an outline chronology of Mark's recording this new album? If you do, it may help.

Is it possible to look back over the last few months (maybe more) and to gather together any chronological dating of the sessions for his new album. Although specific dates would be useful, more general information would be equally interesting.
 
Let me give an example (and I am making this up, folks)  :-
 
Mid-August 2011: MK started the recording sessions and carried on for about two weeks
Early September: MK took a break for some unknown reason
Mid-September: MK restarted the sessions but broke them off again to rehearse for the Dylan tour
Late-September and early-October : tour rehearsals
8 October to 21 November : MK toured Europe with Dylan
During the London tour dates, Stu Kimball visited the studios
Following the last London show, MK continued the recording sessions
About three weeks later: MK completed the basic recordings
Mid-December 2011 to early January 2012: holiday season break
Mid-January 2012 and for the rest of the month:  overdub sessions
Third week of February: commenced mixing


Is it possible from your sources to produce anything like this?

If it would have happened, e.g. To record an album, or to record with mark, I don't think guy would tell us,... At ALL.

Look, no problem.

From memory, there has been something to indicate the sequence of events in Guy's Forum, in Richard Bennet's blog, from some comments on AMIT and from comments made by various MK fans I bumped into in the course of the BD/MK tour last year, some of whom had spoken to members of the MK touring party.  As you know, this is not my main area of interest, so I'm not disposed to go digging myself, but, if it were a Dylan album being recorded, somebody from amongst the Dylan fanbase (and probably more than one person) would have begun to pull this all together to produce some sort of chronology, however vague.

I just kinda thought that some keen MK fan might have done this already or might be in the process of doing this. Apparently not but that's OK. It's not an obligation. It's not a measure of your level of interest in what MK does. It's not some sort of virility test.

For no obvious reason, this quotation has come into my mind: "Where lucidity reigns, a scale of values becomes unnecessary". I'll have to have a think about where I've seen it. I am really not sure but I think it was Albert Camus who said or wrote this. Please help me out here, Francophones.

Well, most of us are very aware of that chronology not only for this record but for almost everything MK has done since internet and the various diaries and sites exists.

Its a good idea to set up that calendar as you did, but for any reason, none of us felt never the need to do it, as Guy itself was marking that calendar little by little with his diaries and his forum, so it looks like we felt we already had it.

And there is somethig I had to say earlier, Twm, thanks for sorting the calendar as you did, its very nice, being something easy to do, nobody did, so thanks for it!
