Dire Straits

[Strangelight]

Everywhere I go these days a Dire Straits track comes on. I might get a headband and that. Anyone like them? or are they not 'emotional' enough

 

[Bastet]

i'd definitely get that headband if i were you!
they're not bad i guess...don't do much for me though

 

[marginalé]

 

[my dying groom]

gotta love the videos for "money for nothing" and "walk of life"

 

[Allan]

Very much. Got the new Knopfler last week.

 

[Allan]

which is very good too, try "whoop de doo" for emotion, haha. I'm serious though

 

[Lifeline]

maybe they haven't enough emotion for me but some tracks are really good. for example fade to black.

 

[toolsofthetrade]

Had Brothers in Arms on tape, sheer quality (not the tape)

 

[Judge gsz]

I like all the songs I know from them, wich are the ones that are played on the radio and on parties and stuff. I should get an album one day...

 

[Bastet]

hey judge i like your sig, well, i think it's quite funny...

who's it from?

 

[bondcfh007]

i like that part in shaun of the dead when they they're throwing records at the zombies and the dire straights is an easy toss away.

 

[Mick Moss]

Im starting to drop my barriers that I put up years ago, so Dire Straits are OK by me

 

[Don Corleone]

excellent band
knopfler is one of the most amazing guitarists ever. pure passion
yeah check out his solos on communiqué

 

[pagan2002]

knopfler? biggest influence on anathema guitar style ever...
there was a programme and the bassist from blur was saying they were utter shit even though they sold millions of records... then he was bopping around like a twerp in one of his videos.... ho ho ho

 

[Bambi]

blur dont have a bass player, they have a haircut waiting for a photographer

 

[Mick Moss]

hahahahaa

 

[pagan2002]

blur's guitarist was really brilliant on the guitar like, i mean proper good

he fucked off

 

[Maqus]

Had Brothers in Arms on tape, sheer quality (not the tape)

Oh, age 17, summer camp, pancakes, tents, double decker beds, basketball in the dark, "Nothing Compares to You", jeeesus, how old I am

 

[Bambi]

young lads in the park? jumpers for goalposts? isnt it? wasnt it?? marvellous

 

[Maqus]

Yes, jumpers for goalposts, playing "football" in a skirt and sandals in the shadow of ten-storey blocks

Why the fuck did we always have to play football when I hated it? I couldn't play anyway.
