Are you really MK fans?

Most of all the songs you are mentioning are DS songs and many of them quite old. Don

Most of the songs MK plays live are far better than the studio versions, even the extremely boring "True love will never fade" had something in the live version...

But its more about the topic, it should be "Songs that could be played live in our dreams" instead, MK doesn

Yes, it had the CITTERN in it!   The album version WAS boring, but live I liked it very much!    :)

BTW  Coyote was one of the highlights of the 2010 tour for me.  It was also much better than the album version!

I also liked Coyote live, but what I mean is what happens when it is supposed that MK consider one of our "dreams" songs, he consider to play The Mans Too Strong, and in the end heplays Coyote...

So if we dream about Your latest trick, he will play El Macho...

There is nothing anyone can do to make True Love anything more than dull, boring and soppy.

I think Prairie Wedding is a really good song with a beautiful guitar solo on it

Actually I think that he might stop playing some of his old DS songs... And I think it might be TR.

Why? He wanted it out of the Madrid 2010 digital download, and it was ok, played as always, the boring version with citterns instead the elecric guitar, so I guess he may consider stop playing it, and instead play, lets say... Redbud tree, a classic  ;D
