Okay, dmg, I see you're disappointed (and can understand it to a certain extent), but re: playing with Dylan I think the story is a different one. If you go and look at the posts on the Expecting Rain forum, you'll see that the Dylan fans are deeply confused and disappointed, too. My guess is that Dylan (not Knopfler) is having a hard time, for whatever reason, maybe he's unhappy with his band, his new album, his own performances, whith fans walking out ... Something is happening there, and I don't know what it is :-), but it's nothing good.
