[b][size=100]I was thrilled to be able to see Mark Knopfler in Philadelphia. It was the first concert I ever went to and I was 65 at the time. I was very far from the stage and used binoculars in order to see him but the sound was fabulous. I was in absolute awe of the concert and it was too short since he opened for Bob Dylan. I venture to say, that most of the people there were not to see Mark. I think they were pleasantly surprised. There were two guys in front of me who came to see Dylan. They left during his set, even before I did. One thing I have noticed since I have been following his current tour and joined European groups, they know MK much better than we do here in America and that's sad because he's such a talent. He didn't sing any songs from Dire Straits except So Far Away and said in the beginning of the concert, he wouldn't be playing the old songs. I didn't care. I was just happy to be there at all. If I could have gotten to the UK, (I was there for a month in 2011...this is actually when I discovered MK) I would have loved to go back for a visit and see at least one concert in 2013.
