bucharest:
(via an annymous source)
-
numero due
-
and on the side it looks like a guitar case (with locks and a handle) but that picture was too big to post.
-
and how is the quality of the music on it ?!! :hmm
-
i guess mp3 quality? (and now the discussion on lossless vs. mp3 can start)
-
Wish we could have not only audio but also video of the concert in that stick. :)
-
Thanks, Pottel, for posting the pic! Looks great!
-
I also want to thank you Pottel for showing the beautiful stick! I like it and sure want to have one of Amsterdam!
Btw do I have to order the stick before the concert or is after the concert possible too?
Fieneke
-
I ordered the Istanbul concert last night (therefore after the concert). Sooo excited!!! Not sure how long we can get them for, possbily until they are sold out?
-
perfectly possible afterwards Fieneke
-
Ok, thank you Pottel! ;)
Fieneke
-
But if you order it now and you get lucky you may have it in your house on the 16th already :D
-
very nice indeed
-
just FYI, they combined two songs into one song on the stick, so the stick has 15 songs instead of 16. just to let everyone know for future concerts.
-
I ordered Sofia and can't wait to get it....NOW! :smack :smack :smack
-
Have ordered Bucharest right when the sticks were announced - long before the show - but nothing received yet :( :think
Pottel, did you get yours so quickly??? ??? ::)
-
Swiss customs I presume....
-
eff.......... :smack :disbelief
-
got my burcharest stick today in the uk,
as you orderd way before the tour kicked off , kept checking the post everyday and finally heree :))
good things come to those that wait he hehe,
-
But if you order it now and you get lucky you may have it in your house on the 16th already :D
You are right about that Ingrid, so I will order it this week! ;D
Fieneke
-
Still waiting for my Bucharest stick in the UK :( Did anyone receive a dispatch notice by E-mail?
-
ordered my hometown. finally. in all the rush i forgot that one..
-
no i didnt get sent a dispatch email, but it came through with some i guess german stamps on it
-
Hmm. Maybe tomorrow then. But if it doesn't arrive this week I may have to send them an E-mail! Especially given that they took my money at the point of pre-order!

I have just checked the FAQ page on mk-live.com, and what do I see?
When will I receive my USB stick(s)?
Your order will be dispatched two days after the respective concert at the latest. Note: orders that include USB sticks from more than one concert will be dispatched after the last of these concerts.
Is that stupid or what?
And hey, postage wasn't reduced by ordering more than one stick!
So I can wait until the end of the tour to get Bucharest?
WTF
Oh and wait - that means I will ALSO get a tremendous bill by the customs when all the sticks arrive together :thumbsdown :disbelief :thumbsdown :disbelief :thumbsdown :smack
-
That sucks, write them to tell them that or have your postaddress changed to another, Pottel or so
-
lol, i would still need to get them through customs ingrid
i was told the postage is only paid once?
-
No, you can send them one by one or so

Unbelievable! This is the way to reward those who ordered (and paid for!) more concerts in advance :disbelief
Write them telling you've paid every single shipment
-
Thanks for the pics Pottel.
looks nice.....
as I can remember we were warned about ordering more sticks and the dispatch after the last concert, by mail :smack
It still s*cks

Well, I guess so... My fault. I als was wrong about the postage. Sorry.
Too bad I ordered 2 Sticks from early in the tour and 2 from almost the end at once...
However - what really sucks:
I had to pay German VAT (19%).
And when I will finally get them I will be ADDITIONALLY charged the VAT of my country, based on the full price including German VAT including postage PLUS 25
-
Can anybody who joined one of the first 5 shows tell us if the sticks are also offered at the venue after the show? How much do they cost picking them up at the concert hall?
-
No they aren't. It's also stated on the site
-
This may come across as me being a giant leecher and all, which is only partly true by the way :P , but
are the contents of these sticks to be shared amongst fans, somewhere deep underground?
I for one am willing to accidentally leak the contents of the Antwerp and Luxembourg gig somewhere (not publicly) on the net, for those interested.
Just wondering.
-
I am not sure what others are thinking and I am not an editor or even close to that. I think that it is the thing that we are not going to speak or arrange here, because sticks are official material and not bootlegs. However, maybe it is everyone
-
Silvertown is right. Already in another thread I mentioned it. It's nice you want to share but .....
What you do underground, amongst friends and all is your own business, but keep :-X
We are not going to share them here, no links allowed, no arrangements here. It is official and you know we only share bootlegs.
The spanish tracker doesn't allow the content of the sticks nor bootlegs from this tour either, because there's this official recording.
I hope you all understand. We don't want to have trouble with MK, band and/or management.
-
That's what I thought. ;)
I really like the look of those USB-sticks though, so might as well buy some spares. :P
-
i got Bucharest and Istanbul 2 days after concert
seems the sticks are produced in germany, so it
-
When I traded bootlegs in the good old days it took about 4 working days from mainland Europe to the UK. You can add on the 2 days to produce it, so expect to wait about 8 days. :-\

Back to the sticks:
Last night I tried to order another one (without completing), and guess what?
The system told me "based on your shipping address the taxes will be omitted" !
Wow. :clap
But I'm still waiting for them to reply to my email and getting a refund; plus: they need to quote the net value; otherwise I will still pay the value of two sticks to customs (for getting a total of two!) :'(
-
Er..... tried to order a stick and Australia was not listed in the 'select country' field! :(
Am I doing something wrong or is there no arrangement to post sticks here?
-
I am sending shangri la's version down under. Offering the same for you

That would be amazing, thanks pottel! sending a PM... :)
Can't believe Marks site can't handle it!! Darn it.

Dude, Aussies suffer enough with mark k. As it is...

I finally got the stick from the first show of the tour today... BUT when I was about to play the songs I discovered that the stick was EMPTY..completley CLEAN... Nothing on it... How is that possible??

Happened to me with a Amsterdam simfy stick in 2010. :'( the next day in Amsterdam they put the concert on it.

As well as my stick... completely clean. They put a link to download. I have it now. The sound isn't too good, was better in 2005 and 2010 soundboards, at least in Bucarest recording.
Regards
-
Nito: Where can i find the link??
-
I suppose you have to mail them to get it Kay
-
We should have the choice between a stick or a download, they can do it so why don't they do it ?
-
Looks like ths sticks are taking very long to arrive, at least to Spain. Did any you who have ordered any stick after Bucharest, have receive them?
A friend of mine ordered Istambul and it didnt arrive yet. They say they ship the day after the concert, and thats 8 days ago, normally small packages takes less than a week to arrive.
Just to compare, I know spanish postal service its not the best, and since many companies are taking profit of the new laws to fire their employees, probably they dont have people enough to do the work properly...
-
Ordered and payed for the Sofia stick a week ago .. haven't got anything yet ... will wait and see if it arrives later this week.

Just send an email to the support people (support@markknopfler-live.com) they'll send you the link

So they're making people download the concert audio files. Why the hell not release them in a downloadable (cheaper) format in the first place???

I'm sure that's an obvious solution to sell more. 100% agree. :thumbsup

I don't know since I haven't bought any but that's what other members in this thread said. They're quite expensive to be honest. In 2010 I bought two Simfy recordings offered as a download since they were cheaper than this year's and I still listen to them. Now, that the tour is better than ever, it's a shame that they aren't being offered at a more reasonable price and format.

Yes, they do cost enough, I also listen to the Simfy recordings still, real pleased with them

To receive empty sticks its not normal. People have received the sticks with the mp3 inside, as it meant to be.

so, which one is it? Empty stick or stick with MP3 inside. Can somebody please clarify this?

the stick should contain the concert (mp3) but if, by accident, they send you a blank stick, upon request they will provide a link to download the concert.
The problem seems to be the percentage of empty stick sent :)
-
It is not TOL in the stick!!
;D ;D

Surely they ask you to justify that you actually bought the stick, like your order confirmation email ? Would be too easy oterwise...."I bought it but it is empty"... -"No prob, here is a download link"... :D
And do they keep track of whether your stick was delivered or not ? if not, it may be possible to use this email procedure to get the music sooner than the Postal services can deliver the stick ? :D

They ask you your order reference.

Too bad if you deleted it!

As far as I know, Istanbul and Sofia didnt arrived to spanish buyers either. We had one bank holyday on May 1st, but thats all.

Updated, Istanbul and Turin arrived today to some Spanish fans. :)

I hope when I get mine, it will not come empty. ??? I don't think it's cool to have to go to the trouble of finding the link for the download,etc. :disbelief Plus the stick isn't cheap !!!

I think it's ludicrous! The very least they can do is give us the music we want because at the end of the day, that's what we're paying for - the fancy packaging is just a compulsory extra and not what we asked for.
-
It would be much more simple, quicker and a lot cheaper if we could just download the concerts like last time - we know it's possible. I'm really not that interested in the guitar stick anyway. I'm sure they would sell a lot more if they were downloadable. ;) Seems like another mess! ::)

Thanks Expresso, i've been gone for years since the STP tour. :wave
All i wanna know is, WHERE IS MY CONCERT???!?!? >:(

welcome C.O.T.T. I have a view that if you buy anything from any where and it proves to be faulty due to an oversight by the manufacturer, then it should be free or replaced in full ASAP!!

Hi,
It seems many people are having problems with the sticks. Do you know if they are aswering to all the people properly in terms of time and solutions??
-
I wrote them about a tracking number and got a swift and friendly reply ( there is no tracking number, you can only have the package insured)
-
just had my 2nd stick through the post of the milan concert on it in the uk today , and no problems so far, and just love them

I ordered the Bremen stick some weeks ago. Will be interesting to see when it arrives at my place... the show takes place tomorrow.. .Maybe Tuesday, Wedneday... looking forward to it very much!

Yes.. although it is a bit sad that I am hoping for slow postal service, as opposed to the stick being lost en route. :hmm

I can not wait for my Amsterdam stick, anyone have any idea what the shipping time to Holland? ??? I found these reviews from the first stick of these tour (in french but use translate from google) http://i-was-there.net/2013/05/11/part1-mk-concerts-cles-usb/

New development regarding the sticks. The first show at the RAH is now up for preorder. That's good news since otherwise the shows with Ruth and Nigel together in one show would not be captured on soundboard.
-
Cool news about the RAH stick!
However, still waiting for my Bremen stick. As someone wrote at Guy's forum that he received his Berlin stick on 16th, so I thought it might be reallistic to get it yesterday. Now hoping for today's post, because of Whitsunday next chance would be tuesday or wednesday... . ::)

Hi LE,
im waiting for my Bremen stick too ::)
-
As I hadn't received anything since I my order on April 30th I sent them an email 3 days ago. I suspected what the problem was (no order number with my advanced bank transfer payment) and indeed that was the problem. Today I received an email back from them with an download link to the Sofia Concert and the message that the USB stick is on it's way to me as well. Great service I'd say !!
-- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Listening to the April 29th Sofia concert right now (What It Is) I find the soundquality actually better than the simfy recordings and besides that the audience seems also more noticable than is usually the case with soundboards and , for me, this makes these recordings more enjoyable than the usual soundboards. Marks playing on What It Is (slight mistake is that the song is started twice on the recording) sounds really great and I really can't wait till June 7th in Zwolle 8)

I'd agree and say that my Zagreb stick has far better quality than any previous mp3's from either 2010 or 2005. Bravo Bleeker! :clap

Hello!
I am looking for some advice re The Sticks!
What do you guys think would be the best Stick to buy when you consider setlist and performance so far?
I have ordered the Glasgow one because i was at the show and had to have it, but i would like another one from one of the past shows.
Is there any that stand out so far?

Amsterdam with Ruth Moody!
Was there, real great concert.

Yes the Amsterdam show was one of my first thoughts.
I may stretch the budget and buy a third.
Last nights show was fantastic. A real pleasure to see my hero live again.
The band is sounding great too.
-
Don't forget that in 2005 and 2010 it was mixed following MK team guidelines. Don't know if this is still the case this time.
-
Is it possible to get the songs you want on a stick or are they just selling complete concerts?
I'd like to create my own song list.
If not, what was the concert where the most of the following tracks were played: Diamond, Tupelo and 5:15 am, Yon two crows ?

i wonder why it is that Mark goes "and I wonder" after he introduced Jim Cox on the antwerp show, it happens around 1:12 into Paraguay (the i wonder)
i hear no Del Shannnon rif in Jim's playing before that.
Also funny how he goes "Michaeeeeeeeeeelll" as he would shout "paraguayyyyyy" a few seconds before he introduces McGoldrick.
these sticks are really an enjoyable listen.
and yes, i though found the piano playing to be rather "thin" at times. not entirely unhearable, but soft..

I sent them an email as well and asked for a download option. Not for the reason of the stick being empty, but because they don't even ship to my country in the first place. I attended two shows this tour and I won't be able to buy the recordings. They are already emailing people their download links, why not just offer to sell the recordings the same way?
-
Guy says you can order them from everywhere except Africa. It will be possible within a few days.

Well, my case is a bit different. I don't wish to get into politics here but it is a political problem why my country ( Kosovo) isn't listed when trying to order the sticks, it's pretty much the same everywhere online.
During 2010, I bought the recordings as downloads and everything went great. They were more reasonably priced too.

Maybe there is a possibility that we can arrange something? Someone else ordering the stick and then sending it too you. I will look if I can do it.

I'm having a problem ordering from the UK. I've tried logging in on MarkKnopfler-Live.com but I get an error message saying my account is deactivated, ( although my log-in/password on the main MK.com site is still working). I've tried buying without registering, but when I reach the "pay" button after being transferred to the saferpay site I get a message that the "currency or card is not supported" - but I have not been given any option to enter my credit card details - Has anyone else had this problem, and if not - WHERE in the process do you give your payment card details?
Thanks.
Aidan.

I've tried buying without registering, but when I reach the "pay" button after being transferred to the saferpay site I get a message that the "currency or card is not supported" - but I have not been given any option to enter my credit card details - Has anyone else had this problem, and if not - WHERE in the process do you give your payment card details?
Thanks.
Aidan.

Funniest thing its that it looks that if you asks, you can even get the download link to your show prior to receive your stick...
Someone ask for it, and got one of the concert via link before to get the real stick ???

I don't know if you mean me jbaent, but if so you're wrong. I didn't 'ask' for a link. I ordered and payed (upfront trough online banking) for the stick, but fotgot to add the ordering information. They receieved the money but without the ordering information they didnt know where to send the stick.
When I hadn't received anything after 2 weeks I asked them about it in an email (again, didn't ask for a download link, but asked if they received the money and had send me the stick already). After 3 days they replied and the misunderstanding about the forgotten ordering information was sorted out. As a service from them they gave me the download link for the concert I had already payed for so that I shouldn't have to wait another 1-2 weeks before getting the recording on the stick !
So yes, I did receieve a link before getting the stick, but not because I asked for it but because i made a mistake !

Not as an excuse, but I'm down with the flu at the moment so that may have had something to do with way I answered your posting. In the end all the confusion (at least from my side) could have been avoided if you had been more specific in your first or second posting. As it stands, I was so far (correct me if I'm wrong) the only one who posted in this topic to have received a link without actually having received a stick first, so it wasn't very strange that I felt you talked about me, is it ?
Stefan, I didnt read your post. We write too much and I miss many of the posts, or better said, I look at them very quickly searching for key words that make me stop and read. Yours is, forgive me, one of the lots of unread posts (by me) so sorry about the confusion, I didnt know you could think I was talking about you, and I never thought that could be so big deal.
Accept my appologies, get well and win the battle to that flu (you know, a flu last seven days with medication, a week without it), and have a nice day!

Has anyone perhaps the stick of Amsterdam already received? ???

I have (nor had) any intention to offend you, or anyone else and as It's past midnight and thus my birthday now i'd like to make peace and say I'm sorry. Now I'm off to bed again hoping that tomorrow I atleast feel a bit better !
Happy birthday to you then, I hope that your flu is getting better and better today.
I'm with you brother, did catch a flu, too.
As a note to all girls here at AMIT I have to explain that man flu is widely regarded as one of the worst issues the modern manhood has to deal with. ;D

They confirmed that my Bremen stick was "made ready for shipping" on May 16th! Still not there... But I got the link so in the meantime I could listen to it. But of course I want the stick as a souvenir. A little pissed about this situation... What is so difficult so send something inside of Germany...

Thanks everyone !!! :wave
About the flu, well, I just got out of bed 15 minutes ago ... so have been in bed for like 15-16 hours in a row (again) ... I do feel a little better at the moment ! Cancelled all birthday plans already yesterday, knew it wouldn't work out, so perhaps I celibrate it next weekend.

I played the files on the stick the first time with VLC player. I thought the quality was actually really bad, the songs sounded out of tune, as if the speed with which the songs were played was not consistent. I don't know how to explain otherwise. Playing it now with windows media player and it sounds very good!

Ok, I play it on my iMac, in Audacity. Overall the mix is ok, I just find that MK voice is mixed too loud. Public is well mixed, at times when we thought it was over, they put cut or softer. I'm happy with it, but it was 2005 and the Simfy recordings really better.

I seemed to remember that I'd had trouble ordering from the MK site before using my normal browser (Firefox) so I tried using internet explorer, and although the payment details page was slow to load, I managed to order one this time !

I had ordered, Newcastle - Liverpool - Brighton, but so far, I did receive none of the 3 sticks :-(

bought the "zwolle" stick,
cant wait for next week to visit the show in the netherlands!!
-
Got my 'link' to download the missing Brighton tracks this evening - well worth the wait!! So just waiting for the RAH stick now - cant wait!
Very pleased with the 2 sticks indeed, they are great keepsakes from such a wonderful tour!! Great to have met so many of you in Brighton and london....
-
Hey Ingrid, just been listening to the Brighton show and would you believe it but that woman can be heard shouting 'play walk of life' continuously after Our Shangri-la'! It was as you know bad enough on the night itself let alone on a recording!!! Good to have met you again over the past weekend...
-
I tried to stop her, because she was shouting in my ear and now you all heard that it on the recording you can imagine that my ears were bleeping from that shouting woman. ::) I told here that Going Home would be played and no chance for Walk of Life but she kept shouting. :o
-
Got the Sofia and Lodz sticks yesterday. Have to say that the USB stick looks absolutely beautifull (and they are quite heavy, much more than I expected) !
Ordered the May 27th RAH concert today, mainly to get the 'sax songs', the Ruth duets and a version of Our Shangri-La.

has anyone received RAH stick yet?

I received this morning my RAH stick ... very quick delivery :thumbsup ...
have just finished listening the stick and ... it is really stunning :clap

Just watched Game Of Thrones season 3 episode 9....

Hi,
I have bought three stick, the first (Bucharest) came empty. I wrote an email to support, and at first they didn't answered, but answered the second mail. I do not know what you wrote in your mail, but be sure to write your order number.
Don't know if I can help more... :hmm
Regards :wave

I assume that they have maybe underestimated the demand for the sticks, hence the supply problems. Whatever the situation is good luck with you issues regarding the sticks.

Hello! I have just received mine RAH stick today! Everything is alright (I have not heard all the songs) except Going Home :smack! It seems that the file is corrupted and after a Scan Disk on the stick I found bad sectors on it but I cannot fix it... :think :think :think :think

Agreed..I might add that it is a distinct possibility that PCM underestimated Bleecker Street's ability to produce :smack. They probably got overwhelmed with orders when people saw the set list for the 27th..and heard all the reviews. I personally held off ordering it until I knew it was worth paying for. The second I saw the set list..I placed the order.

Which UK sticks with Nigel except RAH would those of you recommend who have bought some? Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

I really like Liverpool a lot. Also great atmosphere and superb concert

I've just received the Istanbul stick. Looks so good with the box. Strat, MK concert and memories... LONG and MANY email has been sent but i finally have it!! They should fix their payment ways.

Thanks Ingridswing and superval for the UK stick recommendation! I appreciate your help!

I'm so happy with the RAH stick.
Especially with TR...
I used to complain *a lot* about the (in)famous "karaoke mode" after "rolling rover". Well... this was before. Thanks to Jim Cox. The piano solo is so great that a thought of blasphemy came to my mind: "this piano is so beautiful that it is actually better than the guitar in 1996/2001/2005..". Oops, what did I think ! :) In 2008/2010 Matt's relax playing and the piano being low in the mix made me really feel it was karaoke, but in 2013 Jim"s energy plus the good volume of piano in the mix and the added synth like in the good old days make this version of TR special... in fact, quite competitive with Lyon'2005 and Vaison'96, my ultimate favourites. Anybody feeling the same ? :)
Now... I want it on video, not only audio ! :(

I assume some die hard fans, who have a big bankaccount, got several sticks if not a stick of every show so far. Now I would like to hear your opinions which stick you think is the best so far? In terms of best peformance, vocally, vibe, sound and all. :think

Didn't hear all of them but Rah and Liverpool are my favorites so far

Before RAH my reference concert was Istanbul - very nice, energetic performance of Sultans and TR !
I have replaced on my playlist Istanbul with RAH - although they are quite close, I feel RAH has an edge for the whole atmosphere and energy. TR is longer and has more original licks in the end solo.
Then Amsterdam is needed for KOG with Ruth, and at least of of the 3 (3 only !! what a shame ! :( ) recordings of YTC (Bucharest, Sofia, Lubjana). My favourite is Lubjana for the extended solo. dmg prefers Sofia, which is true has a better build-up to the solo. Matter of taste.
Nice to have is Liverpool because of the extended So far away (and Gator Blood).
And of course if you like Back to Tupelo, Piper to the end and 5.15am you need to get sticks where they have been played :) Belgrade 5.15am is my favourite, first time it was played but best energy in the guitar solo. Tupelo and Piper are great whatever the stick I believe.
-
Thanx for the feedback Ingrid and Herlock. By the way I think the Ijselhallen might be great too, cause Mark's vocals on some songs were great that night. Ecspecially looking forward for I Dug Up A Diamond of that night. Also he did some amazing very unique melodic guitarlicks that night.

The one show I listen to the most is Antwerpen. I love IDUAD and Postcard from this show. Would love to hear IDUAD from Inselhallen. Best SOS is from Istanbul I think.

WOW oh Wow!! just got back from hols to find the 'RAH' stick has arrived and my word the sound is awesome, actually just like the concert itself and far better than the Bournemouth & Brighton sticks although lovely to have a copy of all the attended concerts bar the 28th RAH of course. Again no 'Going Home' track so have emailed them about that....

I agree with you, I never understood why the STP tour is so poorly regarded here. That's the tour that introduced marvels like WII and SAN. As a fan of TR I find the 2001 versions fantastic, very energetic and great sounding. MFN intro was very original, better than the barking of the BIA tour, and better than the emptiness that followed in 2005 ! Speedway is a bit young but great ending. And Junkie Doll and Pyroman were gems never to be heard afterwards, sadly !
As for the DVD, yeah, it's a pity, really. If memory serves I think Mark felt that this was the day after Chet Atkins' death and his performance suffered from that. Too bad...

I would guess they are inundated with orders for this show due mainly to reviews on here! Maybe Guy's site too. I think patience may be the order of the day - yet again. ::)

I've listened to a few shows now from the sticks. Imho the best recorded/sounding show so far is Antwerpen, also Mark is vocally quite well in shape during that show. So what do you :think?

I love 2001 tour.
I love SAN 2001 versions because of mark's licks on acoustic (e.g. Toronto) and THREE guitars with much power, Richard's licks on Telecaster.
tehre are other gems : wag the dog, baloney, baby now, and yes Walk of life (great mike henderson playing on all)
and last but not least, the return of the legendary 61 strat ! Probably the one used on Sultans studio version ! shame it never went back afterwards
Yes TR is great, and the best MFN intro IMHO (I would love to have not known the setlist before the gig...my bigger regret in MK live experience)

When did you order the Zwolle stick ? Zwolle is the first stick which has arrived 3 days after ordering it while normally I'd have to wait about 2 weeks !!
The Zwolle stick is great (both sound and performances) .. great to re-live that great night again. IDUAD is really outstanding (i'm probably in the minority when I say that I prefer these versions to the ones with EH in 2006).

Thanks Guitarman for your feedback about Antwerp. Can you tell a bit more in comparison to which sticks you would prefer the Antwerp one. I'm really searching for good stick recommendations apart from RAH and Amsterdam.
I compared it with Istanbul, Sofia, Belgrade, Ljublajana, Liverpool, Birmingham, Amsterdam, RAH 27th and Zwolle. Overall I see Antwerpen compared to these shows as the best recording. I attended the show of Zwolle myself. The Zwolle stick has a very good recording too, and is probably number 2 in my book, but Antwerpen remains my absolute favorite. I have high-end equipment so I hear every little detail and have a well trained musical ear.

and last but not least, the return of the legendary 61 strat ! Probably the one used on Sultans studio version ! shame it never went back afterwards
Yes TR is great, and the best MFN intro IMHO (I would love to have not known the setlist before the gig...my bigger regret in MK live experience)
And dont forget the soundcheck of Silvertown Blues, such a shame it never made it to to the set...

Strange .. Haven't got the RAH stick yet which I orderd on May 31st, but the Zwolle stick that I ordered on June 11th did arrive today. have sent them an email about the London stick.
I ordered the RAH stick on the 28th..still not here. Sent them an email and got a reply stating that they actually ran out of sticks to cover the crush from the orders from the 27th show..and that it would be shipped the next day. Still not here... :disbelief

Thanks again guitarman for your thoughts. I appreciate your taking your time again and sharing your opinion. This is really very helpful for me as I'm intensely interested in what might be the best sticks to have from this awesome tour sound and performance wise. There are of course those sticks that are worth buying just to have one rare song like YTC, 5.15 am and Miss you blues apart from the overall performance of the show. But then of course you try to have those magic nights on stick where the band surpasses itself. In the end it all remains a matter of personal taste of course.
So thank you again for your help!

Got the same reply today (sent them an email yesterday) ... did get a link, so will finally listen to the May 27th concert in a few minutes ! According to them the RAH sticks were sent out starting the day before yesterday !

Lucky you Stefan..at least you got a link! :thumbsup It seems to me that this company drastically underestimated the volume of orders they would receive from the RAH show. The sticks were a fantastic idea for the tour..maybe a bit pricey..but I believe that PCM might probably shop around a bit more for a production company with the ability to meet the demand ...for the next tour.

I agree that it's a brilliant idea to offer all the concerts "professionally" recorded. And the Fender stick and packaging are fantastic, but, I do think the Simfy option during the Get Lucky tour of having the choice to buy either a souvenir USB stick or a download link for each gig was better value.
A download option this time around, could have helped with the supply problems of the RAH show. I mean how many red fender 4Gb USB sticks does one person really need?

:think I'm no marketing guru, but I would have had at least 6 different guitar sticks made so that folks would be tempted to pick at least six concerts to buy...about 11 shows to choose from for each guitar.

Ok..now I should stop complaining...my stick arrived today and the sound is fantastic! Actually...the guitar it self is slightly more detailed than I thought it would be...it's really cool! :thumbsup

They are rather good, but they are just lacking the 'MK' signature on the headstock though ;)
The sound is absolutely awesome and to be honest well worth the wait!!

A new bunch of reviews from the sticks, by Elian Poupard (Poupystar) :

Received my RAH stick yesterday. The receipt had number 124, total number of sticks sold? Sound is good, bass is maybe a bit muddy in first songs. I have to listen with earphones. I can feel sitting in the first row again.

Same number on my receipt. Think it's just a product code.
Really enjoyable gig and no problems with the stick (I know some early receivers had problems with a corrupted "Going Home"). One thing, my storage box did not have a sticker on the inside to identify the concert recording, is this unusual?
I'm not complaining as I was wondering how to get a clean guitar case, because I want to put all my Bleecker St recordings onto one stck (I have 6. May get 1 or 2 more if finances allow) and didn't really want to try to peel the sticker off one of the other boxes in case I damaged it.

Returned home from holiday yesterday to a very nice surprise - my usb stick of the RAH show was waiting for me! I have only had time to listen once, but the sound quality is extremely good and imo much better than the Simfy recordings.
It was great to re-live the wonderful evening at the RAH with all the fans.

My stick is loosing its red painting (tape). Almost as vulnerable as red painting of signature strat.

I absolutely agree with you regarding the sound quality; an agreeable listen, if you like!
P.S. Hope you had a nice break. :wave

Wow, that aging process will make your usb Strat more desirable to guitar players. I imagine the tone of the sound on the stick will improve too... :)

be sure to use 0.07 lite strings, stronger ones can bend the neck and you will be out of tune :-\

Had a laugh with this! But it is strange that the paint went off that early. Maybe your fender in made in china?

Yes, it was beautiful, thanks, but Carcassonne is on the horizon, so I can look forward to a bit more time in the sun, I hope AND Mark and the band! ;)

well, not the best debut for me on this forum. but decisionmaking will get me mad.
anyone ordered Dijon and/or Stuttgart and could comment on Sound Quality?
Seems like a good Ruth/Nigel/Submariner combination.

Only ordered Stuttgart but not received yet. Agree with Enlight, all sticks I heard so far are really good, so choose the ones you think are the best for you (because of somgs, because of being there, or whatever reason)

I just listened to the Paris stick : very good Speedway, Telegraph and Gator !
-
Has someone who was on a few of the five France shows with Ruth a stick recommendation, maybe Ingrid can help. I think she favoured Dijon? Thanks for any oppinons and recommendations!
-
I was at Clermont ferrand and Dijon myself. The energy in Dijon was the best. Haven't been to paris Caen and Rennes so can't judge about that one. In general it seems that concerts where it's hot are the best these days. Don't know why, but except RAH1 which is also one of my faves it seems that all other faves were the hot ones: Zwolle Stuttgart and Frankfurt.

Don't worry my friend i have some of them and this recordings are very good. I think better than 2010 ones.

Ah ok, you are more rating your experience as a spectator than the actual performance ;)
I am listening to it now, find that Paragay and Marbletown are wonderful on that show - I replaced London versions with these ones on my favourite playlist...

I also bought the Rennes stick, but I haven't listened to it yet.
According to Elian alias Poupystar, it was the best french show (of that week).
I'd like to know : which USB stick to buy to have the best version of Submariner ? ??? I read a few times that Stuttgart was the best !

I guess that can be told when people have ,when ordered , received them all.
And still than it will (shall) be a personal choice :wave

Only had 2 submariners but the difference between Bad Mergentheim and Stuttgart was really amazing. Stuttgart by far! better. And I heard from others by far the best from all.

Hi Ingrid , you're late , sleepless night ? ;D
I would love to share your opinion , but can you explain the difference between those two version (shows),
when the difference is really amazing ,as you say, than that shouldn't be a problem .
But really amazing , and far the best of all mentioned by others, is a bit too vague. imho ;)

Just dame home 10 minutes ago, so catching up with the forum again ?
The Stuttgart one was:
- more balanced, it sounded like it grew into the whole band. Hard to describe. I would have loved to hear it after another 10 shows, I am sure it would have been better again.
- better solo's, both MK and NH
- Bad Mergentheim was a little bit boring as Pottel described it, but he also admitted, although he doesn't like this song very much, that this version was really good
- more energy, more power

yeah I normally catch up in the night when I come home :lol
thx for your review of these both performances of he song.
I couldn't give a listen to either shows yet, ( I couldn't find or missed a version of them on you tube)
Do you mean that the Stuttgart version was stretched , and that Nigel had room for a solo on his clarinet,
or did he just "repeat" the original tune more powerful as the days before ?
I definitely agree with you when it comes to playing this song till the last show, unfortunately it wasn't in the set during Nimes,(as you certainly knows ;)
I hope not it was only played for the four last German gigs :'(
-
Does anyone know if the concert sticks will stay available for purchase after the tour has finished? Or will they stop selling them immediately after the tour? :hmm
I'm planning on buying one (or a few) more, but I'd like to wait untill I have a setlist of all concerts, so I can make a choise on what songs I want (I'm sure I'm not the only one here who's planning something like this :))

The song is a surprise played live.......so beautiful :clap

Agree... stunning track and even better live... And now very addictive on my Iphone...
And as far as I am concerned, it is the most expensive song ever for me, as I gave up on everything to go to Stuttgart just to listen to it:
- financially, I had to pay for the concert ticket, the train ticket first class (to be able to work) and one night hotel,
- personally, I had to leave my family at a moment where it was less than appropiate,
- professionnally, I gave up my projet, just trying to make up for it working in the train.
Yet I don't regret anything ! I was there ! for the best of the (only ) 4 times ! :) Thanks again Ingrid who helped me so much...

I confirm that you can buy the Lodz stick for the Hillfarmer Blues version.
though everybody got their own favorites!
Marks guitar is very well hearable in the mix , the outro solo is very ,very nice , I love the "raking" stuff on his guitar which he does twice during this version,(fast down strum of some muted strings , then followed by the root note of the (next) chord in the song over which he plays the solo).
so there can be better version for whatever reason...........but I can not deny it's not worth buying :wave

I sent a mail to the company that distributes the sticks with the question how long they would be available. This was their answer:
"There is still no fixed final date agreed yet, however, it is very likely that the sticks are available throughout August, too."
So it would seem we have a little bit of time to make up our mind as to which concerts we want to order :)

Thanks OnlyMe for asking and sharing the answer.
I was too hesitant in 2005 and 2010 and intend not to be this time around.

Maybe it is planned to put out the Madrid one as an "official" release - I remember jbaent telling us about rumours of plans to release a Live-album-package (incl. DVD from the BBC TV-Show?)... Madrid was the one of choice for the "Privateering Super Deluxe Download Option" already. So maybe we will have it later. Only question then would be: Do they skip Marbletown or Telegraph Road (again)? ??? If they would plan to do so, I am sure PC doesn't wish to let Bleecker tell us und just brings up fairytales about high fees and stuff...
By the way, just checked and saw at amazon.de the Privateering Limited Super Deluxe Edition is still available for 49,99

Was the Madrid show filmed in the first place ?

I am not aware of any official filming of the MK crew during this tour, apart from one or two shows where screens were used obviously...
The release I was speculating at would be a pure audio live album release.

Madrid concert was recorded but they dont sell it because of the prices.
I do think that when they accepted the preorders they kind of made a contract that they have to honour, so as long as the concert is recorded, I think they have to send it to the preorders. I understand they dont sell it anymore because they retired the concert from the site but the preorders...
What do you think? i emailed them asking to honour that preorders.

I do think that when they accepted the preorders they kind of made a contract that they have to honour, so as long as the concert is recorded, I think they have to send it to the preorders. I understand they dont sell it anymore because they retired the concert from the site but the preorders...
What do you think? i emailed them asking to honour that preorders.
I wonder what would be their reaction if I told them something like "I've pre-ordered the San Sebastian stick, I don't want it anymore, please refund me".... :think
They'd surely hide behind "a contract is a contract"-style excuse. ::)

indeed Pensaboy,
register on the PayPal site and choose for connecting your credit card to PayPal
-
What is eCommerce? Maybe that is the place to use your credit card.Try it, worse case scenario it won't be what you are looking for.

I will not use PayPal under any circumstances. I was able to buy sticks using my Visa Debit card. Choose Saferpay eCommerce, and it will let you put in the card number. When I first tried to order, it wasn't working, but it's been fixed and I got my order through and received the sticks with no problem.

Two reasons.
First, they screwed up the account I had - charged $595 to it AFTER I had spoken to their Fraud department and received e-mail confirmation that the charge was bogus, then took more than a month to get the money back into my bank account.
Second, when they told Smashwords they had to remove some books for sale on their site or PayPay would no longer process payments for them, that tore it. If someone wants to buy books, the payment system only needs to know the amount. What the books are is NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS.
That's why.
-
Its like travel agency's and airplane companies , there are always people who have a personal thing to complain about and the may be right, still a hotel can be good for others and planes don't drop from the sky regularly .
I am sure somebody must have had a negative experience with Saferpay ecommerce also , that's the way that the world goes round.
For a moment I thought my money wasn't safe ;)
I guess the capitals are an expression, though I do understand without :wave

Enough, I say. Enough of this Paypal bashing! Personally I think they can be great for their users (well some of them):

Hahahahaha!! I particularly liked the currency conversion from dollars to pounds ($92 quadrillion =

Never had any trouble with paypal. I received some fishingmails a few months ago, wanting me to login on my account. Recognized it so I didn't. I sent the mails to their fraud department and they were happy to receive them. If you use it the same as your bankaccount and never react at fishingmails you will have no problems. That's what I think.
Very useful to pay eachother around the globe imho

Wahahaha one reason to use PayPal under whatever circumstances ...the only way to be a quadrillionair
for a minute...and have the Guadrillionair Blues ;D
I agree Ingrid :wave
-
Never have any issues with Paypal. I've used it for many many years. It's the convenience that appeals to me the most. Hate filling out credit card numbers and so forth. :)
-
Well, I could tell you my unhappy story about Paypal, but it is not relevant here. One thing I can point out is that it has almost become almost a monopoly and as such I am very sceptical.

Yes, I too have an unhappy experience using PP on ebay with a "chargeback" and the buyer found himself with a beautiful Leica M4 and the money he paid for it back into his account! They also don't operate from Luxembourg for nothing.
-
many thanks for all the advice.Didn't really want to set up a paypal account so will try the other option later. ;D

Is anyone else here who hasn't received their order?
I ordered the RAH stick about 1.5 months ago and it still hasn't arrived... I sent 2 e-mails to support, but got no reply :|
-
Write to support@markknopfler-live.com, at Carsten Brauer, mentioning your order number, date and way of payment. I had a similar problem and they were most helpful.
-
I've just sent my 3rd e-mail. Not cool.
-
Hope it turns out fine. It's been a bit worrying for me too, but everything turn out fine.
-
huh? why is the checkout in pounds all of the sudden? and now a stick costs 35
-
Nothing wrong with currency here, same old price too.
-
Still waiting for my Stuttgart stick. Ordered 22 august.have sent one e-mail but no reply as yet. :think
-
I was thinking of ordering a couple more, but this turn of events kind of puts me off. I don't think there is something wrong, just a delay, but let me know of the outcome.
-
Isn't it cool that there will be sticks of the five US shows as well? I consider buying the first one. Long Beach is Jim Cox's home - and they might explode in joy and happiness after seeing themselves again like they did in Zwolle...
I imagine that the cooperation with Bleecker Street might have been a success and that there maybe will be usb-sticks from future tours as well. Phantastic thought. It is really awesome to have a complete tour covered by soundboard recordings. Lots of possibilities for concert-goers to choose from. Only thing is you get greedy - in 2010 we all were happy with having the second part of the tour released. Nowadays everything but a complete 2015 tour on usb stick would be a disappointment. If there will be one! ;)

Anybody notice that the "sticks" have a design flaw? There are 4 strings on the fret board, 5 on the head stock, and 6 tuning screws!! :o ;D :o ;D
Considering how particular Mark is about "getting it right", I'm sure he has noticed and I wonder how he may have reacted.
-
No flaws! Just vibrating too hard to be seen! Artistic livence...
-
Nah, it was probably just built by a dude/gal who didn't know/care much about music. Plain shoddy, imo....
-
The Simpson also have four fingers - just looks better. ;D To work out six strings on that miniature guitar would have been far too expensive. It is just industrial produced and pretty cheap - although it doesn't feel like it because of its weight. But six strings on it would probably have meant 5 Euros more for us to pay or so.

Very good mix in Long Beach. They have done it with time enough. Interesting fixes.
