Yip.. MK is playing at a big multi-artist charity show in my home city in February, and I've been asked to play in the house band.

As a Knopfler / Straits fan since I was a lad, I'm excited beyond belief.

I'm trying to be cool about it, but it's MK, so... bugger it.

Wow congrats! Have a blast and hit us back with your story after the gig in Feb.

 

[vonsparks]

That is awesome! I love MK, you are such a lucky person!

 

[wateroftyne]

Thanks, everyone!

I don't have too many details yet, but I'll know more soon.

Incidentally, its this event: Invalid Link Removed - It sold out in less than a day, I think...

 

[Muttleybass]

We will expect a full report with pics after the gig.

 

[JWP]

Reallynreally cool! MK is one of my faves! Please post pics and some video if at all possible!

Awesome! I've been a huge fan since the 1st time I heard the opening bars of Sultans of Swing! Great guitarist and songwriter! Color me Jealous!

Congrats!

We're you told what to bring? I realize that common sense will prevail, but I'm curious.

Fantastic! Huge congrats, WOT. I'm a major Knopfler fan as well. Hoping for video and a full report when you've had time to come down.
