For MK, I'm sure that playing with Bob is far more important than the money.   It is the pride of playing with his hero that matters!   :)

But if the show is split in two halves, then they don't really play together ...

I was hoping Mark would be playing alone with Dylan's band, though. At least, let's hope that he'll dump the Donegan's Gone Home setlist.

But it is expected that they will play SOME songs together!

But then what's the point of this tour? And why does he postpone his album release if he will only play one or two songs with Dylan?
Dylan is like God for MK. Like Chet Atkins or Hank Marvin. That's it.

Well but if he only wants to play one or two songs with his "God" he could invite him over to British Grove for a jam session...

In the music business artists are proud 'to share the bill' with someone who is/was famous...

True but after all it's just a nostalgia hype and a way to earn money...

For MK, I'm sure that playing with Bob is far more important than the money.   It is the pride of playing with his hero that matters!   :)

I can understand how much this means to MK. But joining him for only two songs? Come on! That would be disappointing.

I will be going, if I can get tickets.  I feel it could be something momentous, if not it will definitely be an experience I probably won't forget - for better or for worse!   ;D

The two song thing was hypothetical, I KNOW that. But it could be true. I just followed that thought, And LE, I am not sure yet. I will probably go to Mannheim. It's MK onstage after all.

Ok, I do remember the stories about MK drinking cups of coffee in dozens while listening to BD in his very youth. BD surely is one of his idols. I suppose that even today touring with BD is still a real honour to him.

Hey, I Never thought of the opportunity of seeing MK live on stage in 2011 - so that is really a big surprise to me! Even if he is going to play 60 minutes doing the "usual" playlist, it's gonna be fun! I wasn't prepared for a tour in 2011, so I'm only going to make it for one show. But I'm sure that this is going to be a lot of fun, I guess the last two songs will be played by MK and BD together. And to Fieneke: Don't worry, there'll be sunshine after rain, and I'm pretty sure that there will be A LOT of videos and bootlegs of this short tour. And 2012 or 2013 we're gonna have a real MK solo world-tour to look forward to!

Yep, that is a real pity! Perhaps it has something to do with BD/poor record sales?

Well you never know,maybe MK will play some standalone gigs after his stint with BD is over seeing as he has assembled the band and he doesn't seem to be in any hurry to release his new album.

I was just reading some of the reviews on Bobs recent gig here in Ireland on http://www.ticketmaster.ie/Bob-Dylan-tickets/artist/734972  & they werent that great to be honest.I was going to go to that gig last month as I had never seen Bob before but I'm glad that I didnt now as I'll get two in one at the Dublin gig.I cant say that its floating my boat at the moment but MK is MK & I know that I'll be itching to go the nearer it gets.The one good thing is that Dublin is the first one so the set list wont be out there.
