I am off to Hamburg now. As I will probably have no internet access, you can't expect any early (set list) information from me. Just ask Isaac!! Think I am looking for an internet cafe somewhere tomorrow. But, hey, do you really expect any surprises?? :lol :lol I will be back home friday morning.
So, until tomorrow then, probably!
Rock on, Mark!

Cant remember Prarie Wedding ;)
Huh? I thought we were at the same concert. Did you nod off during that song? ;D
Still in Hamburg, typing this from the hotel internet access. The show was good as always but as Pottel presumed, pretty standard. What do I have to do to finally hear Cleaning My Gun or Why Aye Man? Sound was very okay from where I was sitting, row 7.
Security was strict, we were told not to knock on the stage with our hands after the "stage rush" during TR. And I was approached by a very nice James Bond villain type of security guy with an East German accent (sorry buddy, your accent ruins your authority) who told me to stop taking pictures.
Also, I really really hate those people who arrive too late. There were people with big fat beer cups (right, some just cannot live one day without that smelly liquid) squeezing through the rows way after Border Reiver had started. WTF? The ticket says the show starts at 8 so why the heck is it so difficult to be there on time?? I was so aggravated I yelled at two of these idiots. No one ruins Broder Reiver for me without getting punished!
Well, I don't really know why but yesterday was the first time I was a little disappointed because MK did not change the setlist. I was like, nooo, there is Coyote again, and Prairie Wedding... Well but maybe I'm just spoiled. I suppose a feeling of disappointment is inevitable when you go to several shows.
By the way, I bought one of those dark blue women's shirts last night, size S. It is probably a little short but apart from that it fits very well. And speaking of shirts, it was blue floral pattern shirt time again for MK ;D
I will continue my journey today and travel a bit more north. Will be back home Sunday.

How much i understand how you felt !! In Paris i had a least 20 first degree murder temptations.
I wish MK would do a private concert for me in my living room...:)
Did you tell Jaws that MK does allow pictures ???
I felt also at first disapppointed that WAM is not part of the core setlist, but that quicky went away. i hope for Nimes :)

Seems to me there must be an audience recording out there and so soon after the gig. Many thanks Manillo!

Goldenheart, MK talked me into sleep! All the same words again. Nice show but absolutely standard. The only extra ordinary was right at the beginning of SFA when i guess Rich lost power and the band played a loop. MK was relaxed and smiled but had to wait for his start. Also funny after Marbletown he said he needs to practice. Marbletown was very good! Tonight Hannover...

Can't agree. For me, this was one of my best shows. (Only second on this tour, 15th altogether since 1991, so I am not in this exclusive club of 10 GL-shows onwards...) Mark was in a very good, no, excellent mood, never saw him smiling so often. The interaction between the band members is really awesome!! Never noticed it that much, maybe it was because I had first row tickets for the first time. The whole show was really absolutely stunning. I understood the beginning of SFA as a "play" with the audience, because of their clapping they had this "loop"? The versions of STP, Coyote, Marbletown were longer than at my only other show, London first night, longer and better. Mark was really into soloing. I am still absolutely stunned and full of this energy. Somebody told me about two little mistakes he found in WII and SOS, and I came to the conclusion that this is a poor way of judging a concert: It is not a construction, something scientific or technical, it is all about FEELING. And I had the feeling that MK
was, although a little tired looking, really into it! He tried some new things during Telegraph Road, and Sultans was really great, I could not stay on my seat after that - the same with Isaac, who was sitting left of me! Isaac was really into it, too, it seemed. I thought maybe it is a good decision not to attend too many shows because some people seem to get ... used to the very high quality standard and that is a pity. This was a shared musical experience in the best meaning of the word. Therefore I cannot complain about the setlist, because this setlist really works great! Seeing John playing guitar on Coyote is worth the money alone. I am sure I said that after London and I am sure of this more than ever...
The Hamburg audience was really great, very often there was cheering and clapping, sometimes in the typical German way, but who cares, and not only because Mark called it "This very beautiful town". MK seemed to like the audience reaction, and so the whole band did. It seemed Mike had some flute sound problems during GL (again?), and during that song I thought that it indeed would have been better to see John play this - as he did on the album.
So, this was it for me. I love him more than ever, never thought of a blast like this. MK has it still, if the download is ready, I`ll get it and will have my new soundtrack for the next months.
Sultans, oh my god! How can anybody be so cool and say: Well, there was a little mistake at that and that - I can`t understand! Really! He blew that venue! One guy wanted to shake his hand, (wasn`t me)
and the security pushed him back slightly... MK seemed not to see that. I saw Guy saying "WOW" during Marbletown because John and Mike were going somewhere new and did not stop. Mark seemed busy
keeping up with them.
His singing during Piper to the End was really good and touching. I am not an autograph/rudiger/signature/guitar type of man, but after this show, I swear I would have been lucky to have this towel! This
evening will be in my mind for the rest of my life for sure. If I will never attend any more MK show, that would be ok because I have seen him yesterday.
Amen!
LE, from a internet cafe in Hamburg, so no chance of getting a reply from me before tomorrow...

PC did mention on site to take a copy of the policy with you to avoid such bad experience.
(Don't forget to make a translation in case of)
So that way you can put hit under security nose and make him feel like an idiot, but better still is to clear off the situation with them before the start of the show.
BTW yesterday setlist is to date my prefered one of that tour.
-
lol, at the beginning of TR, there is a mobie phone ringing (on the audience rec.)
and the guy actually picks up and goes "what, ..i am in hamburg, at a concert....i am in hamburg, at a mark knopfler concert,..what?"
some people....
-
Thats the funniest part of the audience recordings. I used to laught out loud when listening the Valencia 83 recording with what the people was telling during the show :lol
-
Yes sometimes people behave a strange way in concert.
You wan tto be nice, you act nice and in the end you feel like a sucker.
I remember a 2002 show at Shepherd's Bush.
I was standing at the back of the venue just upstairs.
Someone behind me, shorter than me, asked to go in front of me because he could hardly see the show.
As there was stairway in front of me and from where I was standing I did not mind to be 1 row back I let him pass.
HUGE mistake!
The very first thing he did once in front of me was to switch his phone "on" and put in hand up straigh in front my face to share with his distants friends the show without any consideration to others people attending!
So thank to this little a..hole next time someone I don't know ask me to be nice with him I will think twice before answering "yes - of course no problem".

why the "hello" from mark 24 seconds into What it is??
was he fingerofdeathpointing at someone??
-
Hi, Pottel,
I did not see him pointing to anybody, at least not directly in front of the stage. Miriam told me about some security telling someone to put the camera down. However, Isaac, sitting left of me, was waving to the stage somewhere at the beginning of the show, must have been during the first two or three songs. So maybe MK indeed greeted Isaac with this "Hello"? Isaac never would write about it in his blog I am sure.
There was a guy running to the stage and wanted to shake Marks hand, he was pushed away by security, but that was after "Sultans". You can hear
him on the recording, saying "Mr. Knopfler...".

Yes, MK saw someone filming right at the beginning of WII and pointed somehow to that person. But he had to play the intro as well...therefore the hello.
MK always checks the first rows when coming on stage and when he can spot a kid he waves to the boy or girl. That's all. Some might think he would greet them... ;-)
Upps...boarding.
