Title: Dire Straits tickets (images of past concerts - not future gigs! ) :-)
Post by: Simon on November 01, 2008, 10:56:48 PM: Hi I have been asked on a few occasions if I can share images of early DS concert tickets. I can't find a way to upload more than one pic to my profile so if anyone wants to see copies of my very first DS concert in Durham University Students Union (almost 30 years ago to the day), plus one from 1979 at Newcastle City Hall (the home of MK) signed by MK himself backstage and one in 1992 at Gateshead International Stadium (not a world away from the coaly Tyne) send me your email addresses and I will send them on to you.

Where you did that?

About credits, if you used the same html design, it must be credited to Ubik, if you did your own design, but used all the tickets in my site, it will be unfair if you give me the credit, because the only thing I did was collect the tickets sent by many many fans, upload them to my site and linked everything etc etc, so maybe mention that the tickets comes from my site will be fair enough, or maybe you can copy and paste all the credits I had in my "Greets" section, which are everyone who sent me their tickets.

However, I hope you update the tickets I had, I mean, add more ;)

ps/ I have many of the 2003 cancelled tour too, a special section can be made

Post by: Pottel on November 02, 2008, 02:19:08 PM: i took those 2003 ones too julio. and again, with your explanation i think i did the right thing by simply crediting the prairie wedding website.
the credit is only on the ticketscan name. as the site where we want to use this for is still being set up. takes a lot of time and coordination, but we are closing in. and yes, i added a lot more, thanks to many fans. and can again post a request for more ticketscans being sent my way, it is all for a good cause people!!
