Please, do a live gig to promote it!

I asked Guy about that too, as "The Teenage Cancer Trust" usually schedule live gigs at the Royal Albert Hall with many stars sharing the stage (in 2003 they scheduled one concert with Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton, but was when Mk had his motorbike accident so MK canceled), and the 2020 series were canceled because of the lockdown, the shows were rescheduled for 2021, and they were canceled in the end. I think that's the reason why they did this charity project, as the charity losed all the funds they usually gets for this gigs, so, I asked Guy if this project would have an extension to the RAH stage as well, as the TCT concerts were finally canceled, and he answered exactly this:

I cannot say just yet

I really hope there is a concert from this project, and MK is part of it, but I think the tickets might be expensive, but... since is unlikely MK won't tour again, the price would worth paying!

Let's see when the project is announced, if they also include a live show.
You might get lucky, now and then

I would bet my life on it this will never happen.  Just forget it.

From Guy today:

"I can’t say anything just yet apart from it’s very exciting. Might be able to post something very soon"

Hopefully it will see the light of day in 2022!

There's a couple more too, also with Sam Fender who is involved.

When were they taken?
Are the pics from last year's sessions for the charity project?

They are from a few days ago (April 22). Sting also spent the day(s) in British Grove.
Seems like a guitar auction (many signatures on each) for charity.
They say it’s “the biggest most ambitious project ever”
Let’s wait and see…
