Dire Straits Legacy - Jesus Street (New Song) live in Brazil- 2017

[Eddie Fox]

The singer is atrocious though, I really don't understand why he's still there.

Isn't it a "pay to play" thing?

If that's the case it must be costing him a LOT of money lol

Honestly, if they had a decent and charismatic singer the band could do really well. I mean, look at all the tasteless s*** we hear on the radio these days... they are certainly better than that!

If you ask them, they might be even better than Dire Straits

According Caviglia, 3chord trick has nothing to do with MK

But not according to Phil Palmer right?

I don't know. All we talked here is our interpretation

Of course! I believe him completely!

That's certainly what Alan thinks at least lol

Isn't Marco the guy who claims that Mark is his mentor even though they never met and travels around the world pretending to be the new Dire Straits frontman? Not exactly one to be trusted

They are so eagerly trying to replicate that DS sound that in one single song named Looking for America they kick off emulating Brothers in Arms, then they move on to Telegraph Road, then to Planet of New Orleans, Silvertown Blues... all that within 2 minutes. By the time they finally play something that sounds original - or at least don't try to sound like Mark Knopfler - you're so confused that you either stop it or go back to the beginning just to make sure you didn't miss any reference. Crazy. That's a real bad song, the others I came across are either good or ok. But if they want to get anywhere through their own songs they will need a new singer. Marco is horrendously bad.

I really can't understand how they continue to deliver after all this negative feedback... Even underneath their YouTube videos there's tons of negative comments about cringe and lack of originality and all... If I were to receive so much negative feedback on my website, I'd shut it down the second it was born. But why instead of making original music or playing in somebody's band they're playing this "MK related" game?

Why Paul Franklin doesn't do something like that? Or Jim Cox? Or Hal Lindes interestingly enough? Rhetorical question...

[Eddie Fox]

I guess Alan wants to prove he was part of the deal creating the DS sound that made the band unique and distinguished. All he’s achieved is to be a pallid doppelgänger though.

Too many clues I'm afraid... They could've talk about random people, but who in Mark's circle can lead something that has to do with tribute, also happens to be old and feel he never had his share and a chip on both of his shoulders? Same with Palmer... Just the line about "lots of money" makes it clear to me.

Pretty sure it's about them (can't say it about Phil, but Alan and Chris definitely) — in 2013 Mark politely refuse to sign my LP with Clark and White autographs on it and told me to give him another one. So this is probably an answer.

It's a shame if Marco and the company shitting on Mark, but on the other side only because of them I've got a chance to see Pick performing live and meet him after the show (Phil got me backstage and I'm very greatful about it).

[Eddie Fox]

Phil has said a number of disrespectful things about Mark. I don’t think Mark appreciates him very much these days...

[dustyvalentino]

Hal Lindes has a solid career - he composes music for critically acclaimed TV drama series' here in the UK.

He doesn't need to get involved in this tawdry nonsense.
