Hello
Lots and lots of Facebook posts and content almost every other day on the official Dire Straits page.
Does anyone get the feeling that there is groundwork going in to something here , thinking positively to build publicity prior to rereleases or box set?
Never seen this much output on Dire Straits before. Really good 👌 Hope something comes of it ...

Some time ago there was a possibility to invest in Dire Straits "shares". E.B. sold them, as far as I remember.
Perhaps it's just a bit of marketing to generate a return of investment?!

Yes I think you are right. Its probably more about creating royalties from the existing catalogue, especially when people are stuck at home

Just got back from direstraits.com (https://www.direstraits.com/)
You can hardly imagine that.
This is an official site.

That has been up for quite some time. No changes. Managed by the same group as MK.com

It would be nice if they did something with it.

So it looks as though there is an upgrade planned for the MFN video , more info due 24/06. See the official Facebook page for info
Has anyone ever got any information from the mailing list yet ? I've been signed up since the Hall of Fame period but never ever had an email...

That's interesting, but I bet not as interesting as it may seem. What it may be? A 4K version? 4K version of a bad 80s animation? Or it may be a remake...
As history shows, you can't be too excited in MK's world, because the frustration when you realise what's this all about will be huge. So I guess... 4K :lol

It's better than nothing and a good signal of intent! I will try and contain my excitement...

Did anyone get an email from the mailing list ?
Nothing yet for me!
You were right not to get excited

That's the default mode of every MK fan, to be honest. And that's probably what he wants anyway, so I can't complain :lol
Never had a single email out of this.

Yes, it’s going to be the HD version according to DS social media. Looks a bit better than the original :lol

I got my first email from them about the HD MFN video.

Yes, and I'll include the link below. The way it works is, labels have an opportunity, a rare opportunity I might add, to update the video on the website without altering the address, so basically all the views, comments and whatnot stays the same, but the video is new, remastered and fresh.

I had never noticed that there was an editing glitch with Jack Sonni.
