Grrrrr unfair....I live in France
Amazon gig in London
Thursday - 13 August 2009
Mark is performing at The Bush Hall in Shepherd's Bush, London, on September the 23rd. This is a private performance with no public sale of tickets. You can only obtain tickets for this event by pre-ordering Get Lucky from Amazon UK and being a UK resident. No tickets will be issued for this event and access to the venue will only be possible if your name is on the guest list for the evening as a competition winner from Amazon UK. Please note that entry to the event is only guaranteed with both the appropriate confirmation from Amazon UK and valid photo ID. It is very important that you read and understand the terms and conditions relating to this performance before you enter the competition.
-
:) Maybe you can ask any of our UK fans to enter on your behalf, if they are unable to attend. ;) When does the Competition end?
The more entries we can get the better chance we will have of our members gaining entry to the event. :)
-
The problem is that i'm not sure to be free to attend it...waiting for answers for jobs...( that's more unfair).
2010 would be easier for me i suppose :D
-
Apart of Martine, do we have any more londoners for this prize? :D
errr, I mean, UK RESIDENTS!!!! Come on british!!!! ;D

I met a friend of mine for a bite in London yesterday and we discussed the term 'UK resident'. He is also not British but lives in London. So what does it mean 'UK residents only'? I mean you don't need to have a British passport to be a UK resident, do you? And you don't have the obligation to register in the UK, do you? So how can they check?
Can somebody help here?
BTW, I posted this also on mk.com. But I don't expect an answer, do you? ;D
-
a UK resident is somebody who resides in the UK. With an address in the UK. Simple as that, I don't see where the confusion is?

The point is: how do you check? There is no obligation to register! And, a person who 'lives under the bridge' in the UK is not a UK resident then?
-
If they check it at the door and say "not you uh uh"... ::)
Come on guys! This won't be the only promo gig! :P

Best to ask amazon, it is their competition after all. There is an email address for questions listed in the rules. It is music-questions@amazon.co.uk
However the rules do clearly state that "To enter the prize-draw the entrant must submit their name, e-mail address, mailing address and phone number using the form above within the prize-draw period". So I guess the mailing address you provide will give them a big clue as to whether you are resident in the UK or not!
Also "No physical tickets will be issued. The name of each winner will be held on the door of the venue on the night of the gig. Entrant and guest must be 18 years or over. Photo ID (e.g. passport or driving license) may be required on entry".
But if you do not think they will be able to check, why not take a chance and enter and see what happens?
-
A driving license or passport does contain information about the country you live in. :)
And of course, you have to fill in your adress, phone number etc. I'm pretty sure they won't call any of the people outside the UK. Takes too long, costs too much, too much effort and there is a chance these people are not able to attend the show. They don't care who will win tickets, as long as they did their job. Let's wait for some extra promo shows. ;)
-
I've got an European driving licence and a German passport, but I'm a UK resident. You see my point? Sure, I've got a London address but I can pass it to lots of people who could enter the comp then...
Just to remind you there is NO ID system in the UK with your current home address opposite to e.g. Germany.
-

Not yet. :-\
-
Hi Martina,
normally with these things proff of address is sought - ie a utility bill (telephone,gas,electric),which will obviously have your name & address on it.
If you put that with your copy of ID then unless PC is at the door you shouldnt have a problem if you are one of the lucky ones.
-
Yeah, I know this utility bill thing e.g. for opening a bank account or something. But my husband pays the bills (how it should be and I spend the money ;)) but his last name is not mine. I still stick to my maiden name. Do I also have to bring our marriage certificate? But we got married on Hawaii? :o
BTW, it is Mark Knopfler and his wife's name is Kitty Aldridge.
You see the term 'UK resident' is not really defined, you can easily obtain a UK address and UK phone number...
-
Well, you always can try to subscribe for the competition, if you win is another thing. Don't get me wrong, it would be nice to see everyone win a ticket for the gig in London in September. The only doubts I have is how amazon chooses the winners, that's all. ;)

That's interesting. Seems like if I wanted to get involved in some nefarious business dealings, I should move to the UK. 8)

I just wanted to point out that the term 'UK resident' is something you can very easily fake. I got a few emails asking me if I can provide my UK address and phone number and they would enter the comp. If they win I'm their guests and the letter of confirmation can be send to my address in London or I get the phone call. We don't have a name at our door bell either, so the letter will arrive in my letter box even if the person doesn't live with us. The trick with a flat mate is very known here...
I've entered the comp, but I don't hold out much hope. Especially when the winner selection is done by the same person who did it for Radio 2 last time. Do you remember? :(

hi Aeneas (where does that nick come from?)
first of all welcome to the forum...

and third of all, even if you are not able to record the show, your review will be very much appreciated, including a setlist

Congratulations Aeneas on your win! I was beginning to wonder when notification would be forthcoming for winners, obviously they would not contact all the losers. Now I know I must be a loser...of this competition! :'(

Managed to get to this, along with my son Stuart, and have just arrived home.
Bush Hall is a slightly tatty but v intimate venue. Standing only and 300 people present. The UK ticket winners only heard Friday they were going - no travel costs or hotels paid - just the gig. Met some nice folk and spread the gospel of AMIT!
V small stage - MK pretty well hidden by all his guitars! We were to the R, about 2 metres from Guy and about 4 metres from Mark. He played sitting down the whole gig, as he did at Hurlingham and the set lasted about 80 mins. To begin with I thought Mark seemed disinterested and unhappy - probably my imagination - but he warmed up and was soon chatting freely between songs.
Don't have a note of the exact setlist. Definately kicked off with Why Aye Man, followed by What It Is and ended with Local Hero and then BIA for the encore. In between............. ? My definate recollections include Get Lucky and Monteleone! Like at Hurlingham, the only two songs from the new album. Also played tonight as at Hurlingham were Marbletown, Sailing to Philadelphia, If This is Goodbye, and Why Worry. Marbletown was brilliant thanks to J McCusker! Song for Sonny Liston and True Love Will Never Fade were also played.
It's now 0220 and that's all I can remember folks! Perhaps Guy will post the full setlist on his forum.
I do have some pics and still haven't worked out how to upload them onto AMIT. I'll stick them on my FB page soon and perhaps Slavi/Marie/Dusty/Pottel, one of you could take a few from there and post here?
-
Thanks, now I can go to bed ;)
Its nice to hear you enjoyed the experience so much, we
-
Thanks for your review, draad!
Looks like a bit rockier setlist this time.
-
Thanks for your nice review. Seems another wonderful night. Looking forward to your photos. I guess MK wore black suit and deep blue shirt, as well.

mmm, is this an indication for the setlist during the tour?
-
What a nice surprise! :D It's great to hear of someone from this forum who won! I'm glad you enjoyed the gig, Arthur, it will be lovely to see your pictures! :)
-
Hi Arthur, great top hear AMIT was represented there too! (we are everywhere!) and that you had a good time!
Did you get to give him a kiss from me this time? ;D
-
Thanks Arthur.
mmm, is this an indication for the setlist during the tour?
No surprises here then.! ;)
Hope the 2010 tour has a few surprises up it's sleeve, but i expect it to follow the same MK formula!!!
Cheers BBB
-
The promos in 2007 weren't representative of the tour in 2008 (e.g. HFB & Marbletown) so I hope we will get some different songs in 2010. I can't believe that "Border Reiver" or "So Far From the Clyde" and others from the album will be ignored! :-\
-
I think you are right, Superval, and I guess they haven't had much time for rehearsing, so therefore they play the songs they know best. The preparation and rehearsing for the tour is about six months ahead, I guess, so much will happen in the meantime and during the rehearsals.
-
me thinking the same too, but just wanted to throw that in the ring. guy did mention they had NOT rehearsed for the tour yet.
-
They haven't the touring band together, yet, of course! I'm sure we'll get more surprises in 2010! :P
-
Thanks for the review Arthur - looking forward to the pics.
I bet the UK prize winners weren't happy having to look after their own hotels & travel costs - the prize would be enough for me but it seems a bit cheap on Amazons part ::)
Did you get to meet the band?????
-
Thanks for the photos Arthur - MK didn't look too happy, I think! :-\
-
I thought he looked a little grumpy too.
BTW I managed to remember every song that was played last night. The exact order is up on Guy's forum now. No Alzheimer's here! ;D
-
I am very disapointed about the setlists of the last gigs...
Why is it always the same??
I do hope MK will surprises us next year!

Only two new songs whereas in the 2007 showcases we had a plethora of new material in there, yet on the KtGC tour itself very few songs from the album were performed. Just goes to show that they are not representative of what's going to be played on tour, mainly due I think to the paucity of rehearsal time they had; Guy said that Dudley had NEVER performed one of last nights songs before. Personally I think that's pretty unprofessional and unfair on the audience.
-
ok, but has anyone complained about Dudley's playing?
if he is a real professional he should be able to get away with it.
it is not like Mark is Bob dylan who often, during the tour plays new songs. or David gilmour who played Syd Barrett songs totally unannounced to his band when playing in Munich in 2006.
-
I think it's very professional that Dudley is able to perform songs he has never performed before. Mark must have complete trust in his expertise and professionalism too! :)
-
Lucky guy Arthur, just how did you manage to win!!

I Got Lucky Sally. :D

I agree it would be unfair on the audience if it sounded as if he had never played it before. But I doubt it was that bad.
I agree with Val!
-

I got the impression that Guy was hinting that may have been the reason (or one of them) why MK wasn't looking relaxed last night.
Also, I think a band should be fully rehearsed so that they all know exactly what they are all doing and not walking on stage nervous not knowing what's going to happen, even if it did go okay. If it was rehearsed then it would be better perfected with room for improvisation, this is yet more evidence to me that MK is no longer such a perfectionist as he used to be. Another is when Guy says on his forum that they no longer practice Sultans before the tour. Maybe they should - it was pretty poor last time out.
-
I absolutely agree to you, dmg!
My opinion: These "promo" stuff is work that MK is absolutely not interested in. I think he has to do it for record company reasons. So he then uses this
"second hand" band, takes as less effort as possible, plays only two new songs and apart from that standard songs that he played at least 500 times live...
When he starts his "real" tour, it is another thing - because it is his own financial risk. I have the Berlin 2007 gig on DVD but honestly never watch it. The same with the AVO sessions from the same year. His performance on the "promo" tour was not ideal to gain new fans to say it friendly...

;D It is his album promo - isn't it? Second band? Glen Worf does not live in UK and has own business schedule. There is not reason to visit London to play one or two promo concerts.
Berlin 2007 showcase... it is great performance, exlcuding some trouble with voice in the begining.
-
These promo concerts are Mark's choice and I bet he feels way better playing those LIVE gigs with REAL playing than those silly playback TV shows that he used to do before.
I don't believe they haven't rehearsed these new songs. Dudley might not played it in concert before but he surely knew how to play it.
Draad, you were there - could you tell the bass parts on Why Aye Man were off?

-
i was in hurlingham, so i think i can speak out of experience, and mark and all in the band were in a top form and a great mood.
-
OK, I don
-
I'm no music expert chaps. I didn't hear wrong notes or bad timing, but I was possibly in too good a mood to be critical. In several songs there was a bit of what I call "extended noodling around" and if these guys can do THAT with no rehearsing, then I take my hat off to them!

-
I think it's obvious that the band rehearsed more for the 2007 promo tour because they played more new songs whereas this time around it's the same old chestnuts like Sonny Liston cropping up and the new ones they ARE playing are the easier ones. Easy to see that none so far have been live TV or radio broadcasts like the 2007 shows, eh... I think us fans deserve to be treated with more respect than that -it's inpolite.
-
i think you exaggerate.
but hey, that is what a forum is for.
stil, i think it is impossible for you to tell not having been there. just by seeing the track names. to me, i was surprised by how good boring old sonny was played at the hurlingam gig, same goes for sultans and brothers, all very fine performances.
hey arthur, was it another Q&A or a normal show this time??
-
We're all pretty opinionated tonight! ;D
I still think MK's worst performance ever was the AOL sessions in Basel 2007 and I cringe whenever I hear or see that. Bad notes everywhere, stumbling on the lyrics (even on Bonaparte) he looked like he couldn't wait to get off the stage! I bet he wishes all tapes of that could be destroyed! Ironically Postcards and Brothers were actually rather nice from this concert.
-
Thanks for the pictures! The first one in that Gettyimages gallery was a big turn-off, though. Mark should either lose a few pounds or buy his shirts a size bigger (If I was really mean, which I'm not, I'd say I could lend him a bra...) :o Sorry, but you know me. I just had to point it out ;D
His arms are still sexy, though.
-
No Q and A Pottel.
I thought MK was v relaxed and in great form at the Hurlingham gig. He clearly enjoyed the night. I couldn't definately say the same for last night, esp for the first half of the gig. He did look unsettled and a bit grumpy to me. I could be wrong, and even I wasn't there could be a million reasons for him to be like that. Why worry........?
-
Congratulations! Everyone is very happy for you.
-
I think it's obvious that the band rehearsed more for the 2007 promo tour because they played more new songs
I'm not sure why you keep saying this. They only played three songs of KTGC on those shows. The other stuff was pretty much stuff that had been done plenty of times before, except maybe Paraguay.
-

This is what Guy said: "A lot of fun for all...especially as a couple of those tunes we haven't played for a year (no rehearsal) and Dudley our bassist has NEVER played them." So I guess Guy ment that there was a couple of songs that Dudley hadn't played before, not all the songs.
-
dmg, In 2007 there were three new songs played:
True Love Will Never Fade
Let it All Go
The Fizzy and the Still
Hardly a plethora of new material! In fact just one more than we have heard in the two 2009 promos! ::) So not very much has changed then! ;)

There also was a first live performance of Postcards From Paraguay, not too bad.
-
Yes, of course, "Paraguay", but it was not new material from the album being promoted! Incidentally, Dudley played "Postcards from Paraguay" magnificently on the 2007 promos. He enlivened the whole song! ;D
-
Don't get me wrong but session musicians like MK invited for his showcases are top musicians as well! ;) Most of these guys don't need to rehearse a song at all, play it along with a cd once or twice and go on stage. If you read anything from sheet music and want to play that "live" without sheets, well, then you might need to practice a while. They just play. :)

Well, the band were put together for the first time, we had Postcards and BIA and OSL were done in slightly different arrangements for the first time too. In all honesty though, and I'm not a musician, I do think that GL and Monteleone are easy songs to perform and don't require much practice, indeed GL on the album was peformed live in the studio according to Guy.
-
I think you are getting into hair-splitting, dmg! ;D Anyway, I have really enjoyed all of the songs played at Hurlingham, whether easy to play or not. I wouldn't know, because just like you, I am not a musician! ;)

If PC said that to me the only thing I'd stick up is my middle finger! I'm sick of PC coming out before the concert dictating to us in a quite rude manner, spoiling the pre-concert atmosphere. Also I don't care for MK's increasing annoyance over fans recoring the shows and pointing them out or even using the microphone during songs. It's not fair for those who aren't trying to record the show. The statement says something like please be respectful of your fellow fans yet MK interrupts songs these days to point out people filming and spoils a song. That's a security issue and should be taken care of by them.

lol, pretty funny. I didn't really have too much of a problem with it but I've got a thick skin, I've been reading reviews like that of MK's work in the UK press for the last 20 years.

Absolutely. A completely biased and uninformative piece of writing from a reporter who was obviously bored. A reporters job is to report on the facts, not let his/her personal opinion influence the report in any way and from reading this report it is obvious that this reporter is not a fan of MK's music.
-

Except this isn't really a report, it's a review, so it has to be subjective, otherwise all reviews would be 5/5. If he was just reporting the facts it would be pretty boring:
"Mr Knopfler played Why Aye Man. Then he played Sultans of Swing, except he used a different guitar."
I'm amazed people are so bothered about this, MK's been getting sniffy reviews like this for ages. What I can't understand is why a journalist, from the Financial Times of all publications, was there in the first place. I thought it was supposed to be a promo gig for competition winners.

I read through the review very briefly, what I got from it was enough to make me angry. How could he have the audacity to write something like that. May be one of us should write a comment to him about his poor review. I gave him 0 out of 5. >:(

why am i gettingthis when i try to access the torrent for this show:
500 Server Error
A misconfiguration on the server caused a hiccup. Check the server logs, fix the problem, then try again.

It looks like Allen aded the translation in english of the Ran cronicle several times and it was too much information to be loaded for the server at the same time, as the error was just in that torrent...

;) It is after all, just a concert review, of some journalist, from the "Financial Times", who is obviously very young, has no idea about researching to gain knowledge of the early history of the artist, otherwise he would have realised that the "acoustic guitars and Hammond organ swirled around him, Bob Dylan-style" he talks about, was actually planted there by MK and AC who played on and produced 2 of Dylan's highest selling albums ever. Both, Slow Train Coming and Infidels stand the test of time, as Albums for which Bob received high praise, and Mark and Allen's arrangements and production must have played some small part in this "style" developing. :D

Financial Times review:
Well, I am a little surprised by all these reactions. It is not that bad at all. I mean comparing Mark with Bob Dylan seems to be blasphemy? It was said more than once that You Can

The What It Is solo is back! ;) Anyone noticed?

I hadn't noticed it had gone away, oops.

Wonder if the first TR solo will come back too...
Does this mean that MK is starting to enjoy playing the guitar again? Seemed to be almost a chore on the KtGC tour at times. :-\

You mean the solo or the intstrumental intro?
-
Sorry for my really late response! My computer died :P
It was soo great! I still can't believe I've been there! The performance of Mark and his band where great!
Mark played much better on his guitar than in the hole Kill To Get Crimson Tour I think, It did feel much better! :)
It's not much of a review, but at least it's something :P
Sorry for my bad English!
-
thanks for that.
you know it has been recorded, right?

The solo after the second couplet: frost on the ...... He left it out on the second part
of the KTGC tour 2008. I think the first time he left it out was in Norway (oslo?)...

-
Yes, I'm recording, are you also, Maarten? :)
-
I hope I am listening to the right SWR. Just . Swing the mood by Jive Bunny & The Mastermixers right now.
Maarten are you recording digital? Because I can only listen and record the stream mp3.
Ps. What's wrong with the forum last week? It is very slow lately.
-
yeah, we still seem to suffer issues from last weeks' issue.
they played the charts from 20 years ago just now jeroen, that is why.
now it is the news, and i hope to record digital in a second.
but again my problem, i cannot get it from my digital receiver.
-
starting!!
-
I am recording the live stream, hopefully someone else will try to record the digital also. I have a digital cable connected to my digital receiver to my minidisc.
That's how I record the WDR2 concert last time. Will upload a link to the concert when ready.
-
We are recording digitally via satellite. :)
-
It sounds great. I hope there's not to much talking in between. But great announcement from Mark himself.
Thanks Val!
-
Am afraid it will not be the complete concert :'(
After STP they are doing Monteleone and then traffic announcement, ad then Get Lucky and Why Worry are announcent.
-
This is not the advertised Bush Hall concert, it is the Cologne concert with "If This is Goodbye" tagged on to the end! Very strange! :-\
-
Am I hearing this right? Is this the K
-
I'm pretty sure it was the Cologne concert, but I will listen to them both tomorrow to make sure!
-
Yes it is the Cologne concert. You can hear it when Mark starts playing Why Aye Man. In Cologne he said something when the drums began.
I did record it anyway but it did look like they announced the Amazon Gig.
But only the pictures on that site are from the Amazon Gig.
-
yeah, to me also it looked like they advertised the bush hall show.
by the way, the WDR show is on AGAIN tonight:
