Ayatollah Hermione 12737 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I once saw Mark Knopfler support Dylan and it was hands down the worst live show I’ve ever seen. It was already deathly boring when he introduced “the best piccolo player in the UK” and after that, it was time to head to the bar. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh I was listening to Motley Crüe after my mate sat me down to watch the film. Other than sounding generally terrible there was some kind of bizarre fit of cowbell usage that seemingly came out of nowhere....stayed for ages...went away again and came back louder. It gave me a mild panic attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s this guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did he come from? Not sure who the saxophone player is but have you checked out guitar George? (He knows all the chords, apparently). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's an audio rendering of Vince Neil's inner monologue constantly reminding him that he's a drink-driving murderer who never said sorry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38586 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Mark Knopfler once talked about the history of steel string guitars to his former wife for 7hours. Fucking monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13817 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 There’s a luthier in Durham who makes utterly class guitars that go for £5k + Every now and then someone calls up pretending to be Mark Knopfler as some kind of scam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I may be slightly biased, due to my seething hatred of Local Hero, I know it’s not them but it might as well be.) A lot of middle-aged record company executives who were doing a lot of coke whilst kidding themselves they were down with the kids back then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3960 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Ive always filed DS under bands where I can appreciate the technical excellence but they just don't stir the soul - see also Pink Floyd and the MOR version of Fleetwood Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13817 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I was mainly listening for the guitar playing & with working from home I can pretty much have on music all day. There’s a couple of tracks where the guitar playing is class, but otherwise it’s nothing spectacular. Today is a post hardcore day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I'll never lose the image of him smashing his cock off in her ugly minge (google it if you dare kids!). And you just have to ask WTF was Heather Locklear thinking all those years she was letting him slip the length to her!!! Protomartyr have released a new album and it's "bonza" mate!

Tdansmith 2068 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I was gutted to hear of the death of Justin Townes Earle only 38 years old ( son of the legend Steve Earle) I've seen Justin play live a few times he was brilliant, my fav album of his was "Harlem River Blues" https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/justin-townes-earle-dead-singer-22567542 RIP Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
