#31 DTRW TOUR - June 15 2019 - Royal Arena, Copenhagen, Denmark #SPOILER#

[dmg]

Speedway up on YT.  Seems the solo is shorter than before with a break when Richard enters.  Not much playing of note in it at all now. The song is becoming very boring and repetitive since it is virtually note for note now.  MFN or BIA would end the show better if he (rightly) isn't playing TR now.

Well, I was there, and it was not boring at all. Just a bit different and with fewer notes. Who cares as long as the show as a hole is great?

Well, that's just it - the show as a whole isn't that great without a climax and Speedway wasn't suitable even as it was.  I felt something was missing but accepted that that was the way it was.  Yes, it's a well played show but for most people it's pretty slow and boring.

Maybe it's just me but personally I don't think the shows post-break are nearly as good.

Of course it’s slow for most people. It’s Mark Knopfler we are talking about. But my impression was that most people wasn’t bored, but that they were having a blast. Even in the middle and during Speedway. I observed the things you observed about the music, but it didn’t seem to affect most people in a negative way at all.

No id did not, some boring tracks in the first half but we had a blast. RAJ was better in Herning, but in CPH we got BIA !!. Brilliant show.

Nah, I don’t think that the show is “slow and boring” for most people. Most people seems happy, and then there is always someone who misses this or that. Luckily speed has nothing to do with entertainment generally speaking, so people may enjoy the show, get good feelings and be entertained no matter how fast or slow the music is. Not everybody, but that is always the case.

I think we can all agree that, somewhere, sometimes, there may or may not be something for somebody.
