Great version indeed!

So this little drum "variation" is already enough to make Mark smile... and let him think "blimey, this is really a phantastic creative band, we never play the same thing twice...."  :P  LOL  Bob would never realize that his drummer had changed anything... but I know what I prefer of course IN GENERAL...

Val,

I prefer a well rehearsed, tight and exactly played live song over any "jazzy" and "improvised" version

I really like this CBC clip a lot!! In fact everything that Mark does with the Dan Electro is great anyway! Love him playing this guitar!

Ah, yes - I agree.  I like a tightish band too, but these two "newer" members of MK's band are playing much more loosely than Matt and Danny.  That is OK with me up to a point and it suits a lot of the songs from Privateering.   :)

I inferred, from the two diary reports, That Mark has not played the Hollywood Bowl before. If that's right, it is surprising.

In DS and indeed his solo days it has always been the LA Forum or The Greek Theatre they played.

Thanks. Just interesting, that's all.

You have to be wary of newspaper reports and the like, so I wondered. One recent report said Dylan first played the Bowl in 1965. Not exactly correct. He first played there as the billed performer in 1965 but he had played there previously - as Joan Baez's guest two years before. Some reports refer to that appearance as a "surprise". Again, not exactly correct. Dylan was not on the billboards but his appearance was announced in the local newspaper news colums several days before the concert. As I say, my main point is that you have be wary of what you read sometimes.

Its like with Dire Straits and the Royal Albert Hall...

As far as I know, Dire Straits never played at the Royal Albert Hall. They played at many many many venues in London in different moments of their career, but never at the Royal Albert Hall. First time for a full concert, 1996 Golden Heart Tour.

First time for Mark, I guess that in 1987 with Eric Clapton.
You might get lucky, now and then

Fantastic version! CBC might be one of the better ones ever!!  :thumbsup
And check out the reactions of Ianto's freestyling intro!  ;D

Not only the intro, but the job is entirely well done! It's more audible and enjoyable during Jim's piano solo.

Maybe it's time for Julio to change his Terry avatar to an Ian's effort...  8)
Love over gold, mind over matter
