I found a review...

Thank you Dutchessy for finding that review!  It was wonderful to read how that person felt seeing MK for the first time.  Maybe we should all jump on this guy's blog and fire questions away at him

[Dutchessy]

It came from the Markknopfler.com forum... There are a couple of fans who has attended the seattle show...

Still nothing else than a review?

What time is it in Seattle now?

[joanzimm]

It's 9:00 a.m. in Seattle

Can you imagine what the SECC in Glasgow will be like if he opens with Border Reiver and closes with Piper to the End? Can't wait till May 21st.

Would be even better if they played So Far From the Clyde when you see that the venue is actually on the river bank!



I'm pretty pleased with the set and really looking forward to hearing Coyote and Prairie Wedding has long been a favourite of mine too.  No So Far Away is a bonus too.  Can't believe the number of you who are unhappy with Speedway - it's just made for live performances and has to be MK's best post Staits song!  Remembrance Day and Brothers in the same set too, just like we all thought.  Not!

Hmm, SFSL... again? Okay, the rest of the set looks okay. SFA isn't on my wishlist so I don't mind it's gone... Nice setlist imo! I hope not many songs will be kicked out after 3-5 shows. I guess HFB and Marbletown will be played to the end of the tour. Border Reiver is a great opener imo, hope it's as catchy as on the record.

And a Diary update!

Read this:

After show it was back to the hotel bar for a very congratulatory debrief. I took a few notes, a tiny set-list change, in ear mix requests...just so we don't forget at the next soundcheck.

I hope they delete Shangri-La But I think maybe they switch Piper to the end with Going home

[localhero1986]

I hope they switched R&J, SOS, TR, SAN for just one song: SFSL! I guess Coyote will disappear from the setlist very soon...

I don't think they are so many, it's the same two persons complaining over and over again. I agree with you. Speedway is made for live performances.
