kind of an answer from Guy today  "I understand there will be no performance, just a video presentation. "

Seems MK is not going. I can understand why.Let the past be past and let the ex members get the attention.

He must really love that restaurant! He went there a few years ago, which prompted me to go there too and I loved it, it's an amazing restaurant.

How did he find this restaurant anyway? When I see things like this, I wonder how Mark manage to do all he does... Traveling to restaurants 50 km away from Madrid on an ordinary street many times. Makes me want to embark on a trip finding my own favourite little restaurants. The man never stops to inspire!

I hope his HOF speech would be as inspiring as Dylan's ones, he usually goes in details about everything. Just want to hear a long-read from MK.

Probably just checked Trip Advisor like everyone else!

That's best I think.  It would be a real snub to everyone if he went and didn't perform.

I agree - that's the best scenario.  I'm quite relieved actually!    :)

LOL Range Rover reference is hilarious, but aren't Mark's attendance was confirmed by Guy or somebody already? Like, "he'll be there".
By the way, nothing bad in being on the ceremony and not performing there. Why he have to perform? Who said that? It wasn't me.

Actually, if they are there and they are the only band inducted that night not performing, it would be extra special!!!!!!

Thank jbaent for asking Guy.  Now we have got double confirmations of no performance.

MK refused to perform, and refused other tribute bands of ex-members to perform instead of him and his original DS band.  So a video presentation seems to be the best choice.  DS was history, and will never come back again.  That's bloody true.   :'(

Honestly I'm not a fan of seeing this on Dire Straits Wikipedia page:

Years active: 1977–1988, 1991–1995
Reunion(s): 2018

I think everybody who has a sense of beauty would not want to see it there. If the band was already dead in 1988, one "reunion" is enough.

It miss the reunion at Knebworth on 30 June 1990...

Actually, I don't see where is the harm of a one off reunion of one or two songs in their 40th years anniversary of the release of their first record...

I can't understand nobody wants a reunion of a whole new tour but... a one off?

Too much purists...

Looks like MK will indeed not be there. Guy is not saying who will go. My guess is that Pick and MK will not be there. Pick already said it was not his kind of thing and MK is not saying anything about it so we will not know for sure until he speaks........
