Post by: boboDS on September 10, 2009, 01:21:43 PM: of course it is, just like when DS were playing ToL in 1981 (?) in San Remo.

Dave's singing is terrible :) especially in the beginning

Post by: strat61 on September 11, 2009, 11:32:31 AM: I'm sure David thinks the same now about that performance, but why did Mark let him hang himself like that the voice is forced and mimicking. Maybe that's why Mark is laughing ;)

Exactly Dusty, that what I thought too! He tries to sing with that roughness in his voice that DK doesn't have (certainly on recent YouTube vids I've seen) but you just got to laugh. ;D

Post by: sweetsurrender on September 12, 2009, 11:52:42 PM: Strat61 ,

I think you were right about Mark smiling and laughing. I thought Mark looked really happy but in reality he laughed because DK singing was just so horrible.

Post by: Love Expresso on September 13, 2009, 09:04:38 AM: But it was playback and there recorded it together in the studio I think. So why should he laugh on stage. I think really they just had fun. Or were stoned. ;) Or both.

Post by: dylan c. on September 14, 2009, 04:58:18 AM: you know, to me they both look geniunely happy.

and please.. let's have some sympathy for david here. he's a good musician too, only with the tragic burden of being the little brother of a true genius. he wasn't bad at all and he does have that knopfler sound not only a bad immitation, but it's difficult to shine next to mark, you know. it's nobody's fault.

Post by: LEPI on September 14, 2009, 08:07:11 AM: I agree with you abaout David Knopfler. A good musician who will always be in shadow of his genious brother. Sure hope two of them made up and play once more together.
