This time he is going to play very big venues. I mean all the big NBA and Hokey arenas which have a capacity  +15.000. So the setlist must be change this time. He shouldn't play the haul away, DWB, the fish and the bird, prairie wedding and so on...

I think it was one of the coolest thing MK has done in years and I really was proud for him when he started the Dylan tour last year and played nearly no Dire Straits stuff at all at the first shows...

Before the MK/BD tour began, I was reading ER to see their comments about MK and they were saying things about him playing the hit-parade stuff etc so I was so pleased that he did hardly any of those. apart from BIA and So Far Away!   I think it was a very courageous thing for him to have done!   

Personally, I would like to hear more of the songs from his new album and other solo songs I haven't heard before!

Exactly! Me, too. Fare Thee Well Northumberland..., 5.15 am,  ;), and really most of the new stuff seems to be able to sound good live!

Dont get me wrong, I always rather see a MK concert full of his solo stuff, but I consider that when playing for an audience of Dylan fans that probably only know your hits, he should play the hits...

But I admire him because he didnt that last autumm, and also could be a nice way to introduce Dylan fans into his solo catalogue... I dont know it that will work with the North American Dylan fans... In Glasgow several of the Dylan fans went to the bar when they realised they didnt know the songs...

And better for me, plenty of space to move, and breathe  :lol

Nope. Let me tell you the story about that bar : they went to the bar when they realised the bar the bar would close early.  ;D
In Braehead, don't expect a drink after the show. You must supply yourself before, obviously during Mark's set.
I've seen strange things in my life, I've seen many venues and I have to say Braehead Arena remains a mystery to me.
The second night, I decided to get out in the middle of Bob's set.  :-[
No offense to Bob, I was very sorry to leave, the show was so great, but you know, I won't tell you how it's easy to catch taxi up there....
So I left after BWMT and I went to the bar to get a beer.
"Sorry Sir, we are closed..."  It's 10:45PM , 7'000 potential thirsty clients ready to rush out and you close your bar. Unbelievable.  :disbelief

What would you expect from a venue that its inside a commercial mall and you have to queue around loads of people that are having dinner and looking at you kinda "What a bunch of freaks"...
