Today, we certainly don't need sarcasm.
I know the way I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

Why some people are so cynical I can't understand. I don't know what your problems are but you must be in the sh*t regarding your previous posts

I think Mark's statement show's empathy for people who are less fortunate than he is. His money means nothing to the virus, same with Tom Hanks, Idris Elba, etc. He still needs to get food for his family, like we all do, and I would think he gets it from the same shelves we all do. He frequents the local pub near his studio, so, he is not so aloof as some other famous people.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

Mark, our Savior. Give me a break.

He's not trying to be.
All he did was post a nice positive message.
It's how you react in times like this that show what type of person you are.
Unfortunately hunter you are not doing yourself any favours by doubling down with every bitter posting.
You made the point that you didn't appreciate MKs message-many did-so just leave it at that.
I wish you luck in your efforts to deal with the current situation and hope you come out the other side.

Actually, MK could had a better detail with all his fans closed at home recording himself with a guitar playing whatever for us... If it's a new track, better, but, anything. That would be an absolute great thing to help his fans with this...

But a nice message, it's nice. Better than nothing, although he hadn't to do anything.

So many artists doing that kind of thing, recording videos for his fans, uploading cool stuff on his YouTube accounts to make the fans happy. So great!

Actually, that's what I would love to hear - MK completely solo, just him and an acoustic guitar, playing something beautiful for us.   :)

Shame on you!
I think it is none of our business to talk about his money, or what he should do or not etc. :disbelief

Mark had sent us this message to let us all know that HE is thinking of us during these difficult times.
That was very, very nice of him and I do appreciate it a lot.  :clap
Actually he lightened up my day with these words and I do wish him and his family all the best.
Stay safe and be well, Mark! 

This is all the heaven we've got right here where we are in our shangri-la.

Yes, just him and his guitar. That would be great!
I wish Mark will release an acoustic album one day.

Reading Mark’s message warmed my heart in these difficult times. It was lovely to read some positive words from my biggest musical hero. He is in the same big boat as the rest of us, and it’s good to know that he is with us and that he cares enough about his fans to put a message out there, whilst also giving us something to look forward to. I honestly don’t see how anyone could possibly have a problem with that.

Let the man make a sizable donation somewhere to help out.

How are you certain he hasn't already done that?

Everybody should mind his business first and not talk about what the others should do.

Just my 0.02 €.



mark just does not shout out from the rooftop, every time he donates. just like Gilmour. they are very decent blokes who happen to be very fortunate.
i get your point, but as said, even with the best of security measures and money, they cannot prevent being "touched" by the virus. look at Tom Hanks as an example.
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....
