I'm also very dissapointed with this tour schedule... Come on...  :disbelief
Dates for his second part of the Rattle That Lock tour came in february of 2016. So all we can do is hope for some more dates to be announced early next year  :think

I read the meaning of what Rolo wrote differently. In the days of the DS BAND Mark was at the forefront and "in charge" Whereas in his solo career this has changed somewhat.

Yes. Exacly about it.
thx

congrats old friend! so great to keep seeing you on here!

Cheers my friend Pottel,

Been lurking for a long time but a new batch of beauties has the old engines ticking over again.
Mark keeps talking about these circular moments. Must be a seniors phenomenon? Because I have been having em every time I listen to a new track from this release. Funny bit of trivia but one actually applied to a 1969? song that N.Y. released that I was keen on. {Can you pls embed it for me as it's been too long} So the circle closes because now as a senior a HOT CHOCOLATE with a dash of Cinnamon to help me sleep . ..   ...

John Mellencamp... used to listen to his albums a lot but totally lost contact after Human Wheels... Just saw a Box Set of Scarecrow was released in 2022. He was always the case where I never liked the artist as a human being after all I read about him, but loved the music. Big Daddy is one of my favourite records.

Yes, that's true, surprisingly! Right from the start of his solo career he has relied much more on the band, and they seem to be a much tighter unit, Richard, Guy, Glenn and Jim as the core band and all the others have just blended in over the years. They obviously all got on pretty well from the start, and they're all awesome players, so he can relax a bit more, give them more room for creativity.
With DS, and a lot of other bands, I've always had the feeling that players were somehow "competing" for solos, but with this band, that's never the case, they just play together. Of course, MK is still in charge, but maybe he doesn't feel that he needs to control things, because they just happen naturally.

Exactly!
