Layered and Gorgeous
Came up from Philly for this concert and was sooo glad we did. The sound was perfect. Could hear every note of every instrument. Loved the variety of instruments and talent on stage. Like an orchestra with the loveliest, softest, purest of sounds all playing off each other like voices. Seeing the joy in the audience really added to the experience. Worth it!
MASTERFUL
Everything I had hoped for and more. The mix of instruments and the level of talent around him was masterful. Beautiful synergy and flow of oid and new music. Loved every minute. A beautiful night in open air pavilion on Boston harbor made for a magical night. One note to some of these other comments about song choice... you bought tickets to MARK KNOPFLER... NOT Dire Straits... so that’s a YOU problem. I thought the mix was perfect. He’s a genius artist still sharing his craft and talent with us after all these years. Be grateful and respectful of his evolution and get out of your high school head.
St Michelle Winwry
Great night of music. Some have complained about not enough D.S. tunes, but he is such a prolific writer, one would expect him to explore his vast catalog. It rocked, it was sensitive, dynamic, and very well orchestrated. His huge band never sounded like anyone was stepping on each other. The only thing I noticed is at times his wonderful soloing might have been a bit loud in the mix. But that could have been my seat location. No complaints, I just noticed it was a bit out front in the mix at times. Since his tone is masterful, it was fine. Our group was thoroughly entertained. He was charming, precise, relaxed, and a genius band leader. He really sets the bar for us. Looking forward to another tour. Don’t retire!!!
BRILLIANT ARRANGEMENTS GROUNDED BY MARK'S PHENOMENAL GUITAR
Amazing blend of Knopfler's characteristic guitar and unique arrangements by a group of hugely talented musicians - - we loved it!
Happy Are Those Whom Were Called To The Supper
Great sound, great songs, great musicians. You could tell they have many years together by how they intertwine and harmonize. Richard Bennet Guy Fletcher Ian Thomas Danny Cummings Glen Wolf were spot on. Wish I could have followed them on to the Ryman. Thanks for a memorable night. Its too bad that Emylou Harris was not a full time member in this group. Watch You Tube Show. But when your a star who wants to play second fiddle? Elephant and Castle nearby served delicious cold beer and recommend Andys Jazz club afterwards for a night cap. TASTY
Unmistakably Knopfler!
It had been 35 years since we'd last seen Mark Knopfler live in concert and we enjoyed every moment of Sunday's concert. Unmistakable and unique Knopfler sound accompanied by such a talented band. The Geordie boy still rocks!
