Check out the ending, they're going wild on these banjos!

To me it sounds like Spaceballs meets the Red Army Choir in Nashville lol

It's good if they intended to be funny though.

Mark says it seems like 30 years ago so I'm not really sure if that's what I wanna do.

David's is that famous sentence about meeting Mark at funerals and weddings.

At least it makes clear Alan was joking. At least one journalist doing his work properly.

"The Rock Hall could turn to acts influenced by Dire Straits like Dave Matthews, The Wallflowers or Counting Crows".

Never heard of any of these artists saying anything about DS.

The claim by a member of Dire Straits that the group would perform at next week's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony with Stevie Wonder was, it turns out, a poor attempt at humor

I'm reading that MK is also not on speaking terms with Pick. What happened between them?

I think they never spoke again after Pick left the band.

Word is Pick felt Mark had used him, but we all know that Mark never uses a pick.  ;D
