Dire Straits In Colour. All from the Nimes 'On The Night' sound check.

I think I've never seen that Tele being played at a DS show... at least that I can remember.

Very nice pictures, Chris.

in general, are you satisfied with how your book went commercially? (think the critical acclaim WAS/IS all around)
also, you should do a Macca book alike
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

I still have books available. I printed quite a few.
There may be a Macca book down the line. It will take hours of scanning negatives and photo restoration though.

I guess they must have had spare guitars, just in case. Or maybe it was a favourite of Phil's that didn't end up being needed in the show?

Chris, I shared your colo photos on my website and on social media, and said that few books were still avalaible, and that people who want it had to contact you via Insta or mail.

Hope it helps

Thanks for that.
Yeah, I have quite a few books still available.
I'm in this for the long haul, not a quick sale and out.
