Concert #50:2010.06.13, Norwegian Wood Festival, Oslo, Norway

[Mossguitar]

And what it says relative to the cammeras?

I bet the cammeras were there because the promoters of the festival wanted that everyone enjoyed the show, nothing related to a dvd or something...

The concert was filmed by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK). I guess they will broadcast it if they recieve a go from MK. They always film the whole festival and broadcast most of it afterwords.

if think that guy fletcher could tell us something

[Tobben]

The article is called "beautiful end with Knopfler", and the articel says things like "what a band", and "you don

I guess MK seems not to use finger of death during open air concerts, coz the red light doesn't disturb the band much.  Am I right?

[Tobben]

TRD slowly but surely become over the tours the most prominent album in the setlist : 4 out of 15.

Indeed.
And I'm really glad.
I am sick and tired of comments about TRD saying "a joke", "mellow", "to go to sleep", etc..
STP used to be my favourite MK solo album. Because it was so much like DS' followup album to OES.
But now TRD has reached #1, yes, I mean number one, status to me. The album took its revenge: it was deprived from a tour in 2003 following Mark's motorbike accident. Then it was seen as the slow, intimate one. Ironically, it now provides the best guitar riff and solos to the concerts. Mark has turned the so-called b-side songs (Hill Farmer's blues, Marbletown, Coyote) into rocking songs. And WAM is... what to say... even better than WII. It definitely sounds better than WII live anyway. And their is so much soul in the album, it is a concept one about poor people... In comparison, its
successor, Shangri-La, sounds too polished, has less personality. I'm glad that TRD, together with STP and GL, seems to be Mark's own favorite now.
Long live TRD !

"TRD" is now my most fav album. I totally agreed with your assessment regarding best guitar riff and solos.  Take HFB for example, what an incredible song Live with an extended guitar solo.  My all time  fav MK song.  To hear it Live is beyond words.  Like you, I used to like "STP" album.  I love silvertown blues a lot too.

Push "Print Screen" (Prt Sc - Sys Rq) button of your Keyboard...
Then Paste the image in "Paint" or "Photoshop" software... Use Crop-Tool to have a actual Image...
