If you are standing in the arena, go to the left or the right, as much as you can. Believe me. You will enjoy Roger Waters more in any of the sides!

Considerations of John Illsley!

John Illsley's Considerations

"Nothing happens without people going out to see him play, buy the songs ..." "Someone has to compromise ..."
"Thanks to all the fans who followed us over the years and came to see us playing around the world ..."

"We could not have done without them or without you. Thank you."

These considerations from JI shut the fuck of some who hold the misguided notion that MK owes absolutely nothing to his fans. It was a very poor attitude on the part of MK, his absence in the event and total silence was totally unnecessary, lacked more humility and consideration to those who value their work and participated in the vote for the DS to be induced. Now I understand the reason and URGENCY of JI to be present and represent the band next to GF and AL. They were very dignified, especially JI. To him, all my respect and admiration tripled with this attitude.

MK from 2001 that answer to all fans after the shows and MK 2018 became a snob. Really, aging well is for the few. Congratulations, JI. It perceives that you're good with life through his your solo work!  :think

John is the man. It's more Dire Straits that we thought.

Hats off to John.

As mentioned by David Knopfler and Pick Withers, they both received at home their "hall of fame induction prize".

I guess MK too...

And we wait for some (any) news from MK/DS? :disbelief

It's DS and ABBA who are the grumpiest bands ever at reuniting.

ABBA just declared that they are reuniting after 35 years, just sayin'...................

DS doesn't need to reunite. That's actually the one thing that fans have no right to expect from Mark if he doesn't want to do it. A statement was expected, nothing else.

But one can't expect much from Mark these days. On the other end of the spectrum there is for example a certain Norah Jones that may not be of the same caliber but have still received even more awards than DS/Mark for her work and is a very well established artist and what does she do? She did a video stream from her home playing her songs and taking requests from her fans. That was a lot more effort than a simple statement and she didn't need to do it and she made no money doing it but she did it anyway.

Mark's options:

1. Shows up, retrieves his award and brings the house down playing Sultans of Swing and Money for Nothing with whoever is there too
Me:  ;D :clap 8)
Odds: 0.00001:99.99999
Evaluation: coolest grandpa ever, genius musician, legend, what a sport, wanna be like him

2. Shows up, retrieves his award but does not perform
Me:  :) :clap
Odds: 1:99
Evaluation: classy grandpa, wanna know more about him, which albums to get?

3. Does not show up but releases a nice statement and records a thank you video or just a statement
Me:  :) 
Odds: 1:9
Evaluation: classic grandpa, respect, sticks to his guns but cares about everyone

4. Does not show up, does not say anything
Me:   :-\ :smack
Odds:  :-X
Evaluation: grumpy grandpa, what a weirdo, who cares anyway, gimme my Bon Jovi

Yes, but DS thankfully aren't a cheesy cult band.
