This was Mark's second time in Russia. In Moscow Mark and his band played almost the same set list like in Antwerp on 25.04.05. The only difference was that the set list was shorter because MK and friends played 15 songs instead of 17! So Far Away was the last song of the Moscow show. May be Mark and his friends were a bit tired...
But it was good concert anyway. I'm happy that they still play So Far Away in the end of the show like during their first visit to Russia in 2001. I'm longing for the sound of 1980-s!
It is great that Mark included Sailing to Philadelphia in the set list. Beautiful song with great lyrics!
I liked how they played Money For Nothing this time, more than the version they played in 2001 during STP tour. I would agree with a fan from France or Switzerland who wrote on this web site that Mark was tired of playing Walk of Life. There was no groove in this song this time.
As always Sultans Of Swing and Telegraph Road were great. Boom Like That ("song about fast food") was a good rock number too.
I wish Mark and friends good concert tonight in St. Petersburg, and hope to see them in Russia again!
