I hadn’t realised until very recently that Mark actually replaced the MK1 with the MK2 as early as during the Golden Heart tour. This is a bit nerdy I admit but I’m now trying to figure out which Pensa Mark was playing on Romeo, Sultans and Telegraph at the June 10th Copenhagen gig - my personal favourite recording from that tour. I had always assumed that I was hearing the MK1. From checking some YouTube videos it would seem that he was still using the MK1 at the start of June in Rotterdam but by the Stockholm gig on 12th June he had changed to the MK2. So that would mean that Copenhagen would be either one of the last known appearances of the MK1 or one of the first appearances of the MK2.

I really must know these important things!

This is definitely tier 5 MK iceberg content  ;D
