Guy:
I'm not about to go into it here but it's not rocket science.

Translation: MK got itches if he stands next to David or/and Alan.

It's really not rocket science, Mark's behaviour is pretty predictable, which is never a bad thing actually. Me personally, I love to be predictable.

Guy said on his forum they (speaking of Alan) were friends....
MK must be really having some problems with his brother and Alan.
Oh and Guy is not ansewering the question if MK will be there so i think he is not...

I thought that if there was someone capable to be over this things, that was MK, but I was wrong...

If Roger Waters and David Gilmour were capable to solve their issues, I thought MK would be capable too, but I was wrong...

Anyone has its demons, and sometimes you cannot win them, and you keep carrying the demons all the way.

I'm very very dissapointed.

Next page, please. Looking forward.

Let's not exaggerate. Absence on RHOF does not prove anything.

Mark and John are friends. They have certainly talked about it already. John or Guy will pick up the prize and that's all :)

Speaking of Roger and David. I saw an interview with Roger taken in Australia last month. He was touring there. He spoke of David and Nick (mason). He is friends with Nick, always kept in touch. David he has not spoken in quite some time wich is also fine he said. Nothing but love for the two of them.
It would not surprise me if Nick or perhaps David would show up for a guest appearance during his European tour this summer... How big are the chances of John showing up at a MK concert. Zero i think...

The problem is that you compare the BAND to the solo project under a pseudonym. David couldn't understand it, Alan couldn't understand it.
The outcome? The outcome is this "strange" show where the poor guy needs to say something about his own pseudonym and play under it :hmm

He’s saying that MK and DS are the same entity. I agree.

Can't believe Mark just can't let it all go. I mean, he's almost 70 and he still can't put the things that happened like 40 years ago behind his back?
David has even tried to make amends with him more than once... It's seems Mark can't just let it go.

Yes, unfortunately that's it

You're just speculating at this point.

What if he simply doesn't care at all being there ?
It's not just the RnRHoF thing, how often do you see him on TV ? Right, close to never.
How many times does he talk about Dire Straits in interviews ? Right, close to none.

What about cutting him some slack ?

It looks like the fans are the ones who can't let it all go actually.

I agree MK's issue with David seems insanely stubborn at this point. But it doesn't have much to do with the HOF or DS anyway. Its a family thing and David hasnt been a part of more MK/DS for 38 years!!

Regarding HOF performance. Who would be in this version of DS anyway ?  John, Guy, MK and who else? All other ex-members who played on more than one record have not performed on the needed level anyway. except Alan who is clearly blackballed due to the tribute bands and strage behavior etc.

If there were a performance it should really just be Mark and the 96ers playing Brothers in Arms og R&J and just maybe with John on bass.  But then again the induction should really have been MK &DS anyway.
