Hi, everyone!
As you all know, Mark turns 60 tomorrow. So, have you made any plans to celebrate our beloved musician?
I will probably bake a cake and invite some friends. And of course, only Marks music tomorrow... :)

Well I ll probably have a few beers with my friends and listen to some old straits tunes :)
-
huh? i will be kissing his picture, all day,....
-
:o
-
well, I am throwing him a surprise birthday party in my back garden....
-
I hope some radiostations that I have emailed will do something about his 60's birhtday.
I have mailed Radio 2. 3Fm, Radio538 and Qmusic.
Too bad only Radio2 has send me a mail back.
-
I'm meeting himself & Guy for a curry & a few pints tomorrow night :o :o
-
Yes we are all invited to have a cup of tea in Mark's House ;D
-
I'm out with the lads watching the footie tomorrow.
England v Holland, but my mind won't be on the game, i'll be toasting every drink to Mark's special day.
Where we go has a juke box, so at every available moment, i'll be playing DS songs. ;D
It's a pity we couldn't have arranged something a while ago, for some of us to have got together for a A.M.I.T 60th MK Party.
Have a very happy Birthday Mark.! 8)
Cheers BBB
-
I think I'll just wish him well.
Happy birthday MK!
-
I will put on a Dire Straits DVD and enjoy the day! :)
Congrats, Mark. Your music is a very important part of my life!
-
:) ;) :D It's the 12th here now, so Happy Birthday M. F. Knopfler. Your music has been and inspiration to 3 generations now, and may the your passion for music last long enough for a fourth generation to experience it live also. :D ;) :)
By the way I'll be playing my personally signed copy of the Deluxe set which Mark sent me by special jet courier, all day today....... ;) ;)
-
He sent you one too, Ian? ;D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GREATEST GUITARIST OF THE 20TH AND 21ST CENTURIES.
-
I would like to do what Pottel would do. (kissing his pics all day? ) may be in private. On second thought , probably not. I guess I'll just dream about meeting him in person one day ! I'll stare into those dreamy eyes and dream beyond my wildest dream.
There is a link to website put up by one member on markknopfler.com under general Mark's chat where fans can actually send MK a personal birtday messages. I've composed a nice little poem for him. I'll make it big and bold so he'll notice it.
MK's music will forever be a BIG BIG .BIG...................part of my life. Thank you Mark for everything you've given to your fans !!
We love you !!!!!!!
-
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mark !!! Thank you for your beautiful music, to heal ,to comfort and to enjoy every single day means a world to me!! You're the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To celebrate his birthday, I log into his website and download the live recordings from his tours, paying, of course...
Then the clock rang and I wake up
;D
-
Happy birthday, Mark !
I shall be out and about in a pub in Oxford tonight so I shall raise a glass ;)

A Very Happy Birthday to Mark :-)
Gonna raise a glass tonight as well on Mark's behalf (and on me... weird someone wished my birthday today lol...no that was in May...)
-
I do of course wish MK a very happy birthday.
But I have to be honest and say there's part of me that's a little sad. MK has been a big part of my life for a long, long time, and the fact that he is now eligible for a pension and a bus pass just makes me feel old myself.
That said, my other hero is Clint Eastwood, and he has probably made his best work since turning 60. So it's good news that MK is still so prolific and working harder than ever. :)
-
Happy birthday to Mark! I hope he will have a great birthdayparty. 60 is a year to celebrate.
I will raise a glass when I am on a birthdayparty of a friend tonight, same day as MK :)
-
Happy Birthday Marky ,you are the very best of all great people on this world.Your music means a lot to every single person on this world that listens your songs and your unique style of guitar playing.I hope your name will never be forgotten by the future generations.I am proud to live in this time where I can happily wish him a nice 60th happy birthday.A glass of wine for the great Knopfler ;D
-
Happy Birthday Mark! Have a great and hopefully sunny day with all your loved ones :) I'm gonna raise a toast tonight. Oh and funny thing is, two friends of mine celebrate their birthdays today, too. Not sure if they know MK, though ;D
I'm gonna wear my imaginary headband today. Imaginary because I think a real one looks too silly ;D

-
Imaginary Headband in place! A cold one for MK & Max Fletcher too. May they have many happy & healthy years filled with great music! PS: Thank you, folks, for the warm words of welcome!

Could not have said it any better... Eastwood is indeed my other hero although not the same as MK lol
Long live Knopfler and may his work getter better and better.
Happy birthday Mr Mark Knopfler!

Hi all
Shoaib, I managed to get into the forum, had a bit of trouble with activation when I was registering into this forum. But now I'm in so I can wish a Happy Birthday to the beautiful Sultan of Swing himself. Hard to believe that Mark is 60!!!!
Well today I had a business as usual day, housework, hairdresser and pursuing my three-year-old daughter. But I must remember to bake a cake and take it to work, to mark the milestone - mark the Milestone for Mark, haha.
Happy 60th to Dearest Mark
Love Christine
-
Welcome to the greatest MK forum in the world Christine! Nice to have you with us. :)

Today's our 36th anniversary and we will raise a glass to Mark at dinner tonight at an Indian restaurant in Albany, NY. Happy birthday, Mark!!

Funny that 'cos I was always so chuffed having my birthday only two days before MK's, then I found out that one of my best friends Dad actually shared his on the same day too. Not only that but he's 60 today as well!
Happy birthday Mark.
-
I'm a great admired or Clint Eastwood too. And I'll be emailing you a pic of Clint later today, Matt.
-
Well, I wish him a pleasent anniversary, a great new 60th year of touring, singing, playing and having fun!
And he should smile more, that I wish him, too!

He didn't come! I waited all night! :-[

He didn't come! I waited all night!
Sorry that was my fault ,he was very drunk so I had to send him home.

Oh, if he'd been very drunk, I would have had other things in mind than sending him home ;D ;D

I have just arrived home from my holiday in Liechstenstein and was separated from my computer, but I wished Mark a Happy Birthday from the summit of the Augsterberg (August Mountain) and it was also the birthday of the Prince, which was celebrated later with the most magnificent firework display I have ever seen. I thought of Mark and was hoping he was having a wonderful birthday with all his family and friends!
HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY dear Mark! Your music truly did change my life and I wish you every thing good, especially health and the hope you will continue to make the most wonderful music for many years to come! :D
