Mark Knopfler at Zagreb, 9.6.2008

Wow. It happened. I took pictures at Mark Knopfler’s concert in Zagreb. The show was fantastic. The ambience was great, and the crowd was in my opinion excellent. It seems that Guy Fletcher agrees with this ;-). Interesting though as the concert was, nothing could ever top the meet & greet I witnessed from Mark and the band (including the awesome performance from Matt and Guy on the stylophones :-) ).

The only thing horribly wrong with the whole picture was the appalling odor of the dressing rooms…

As far as photographing goes, the lights were very good, but Mark is more or less still on the stage anyway. The crowd was sitting down, which is always a shame as it kills the mood, not to mention it makes the photographers squat in front.  We had two songs to work our magic and then we were able to go and enjoy the show.

    Čeprav se mi zdi, da se glede luči niso kaj preveč trudili med prvima komadoma.

    Uroš, med soloti je bil dobro osvetljen :-). Drugače pa je bila pač… enostavna luč, toliko da se nam ni bilo treba matrat, verjetno…

    Me veseli, da si se mel lepo :) Od fotk mi je pa najbolj všeč zadnja, ki mi edina deluje več kot običajna.

    Darja, sorry, sem malo pozen :) — ja, res so se postarali, Marku se pozna ful, tudi na meet&greetu se mu je vidlo :), ampak še vedno se znajo zabavat ;-).

    @Pajo, veš kako je to… dva komada imaš, tipček pa večino časa pri miru stoji :) tako da je kar težko najt moment, vsaj meni, ki sem še mladič ;-) ampak hvala za pohvalo!

    […] the best one I’ve ever had the privilege of seeing. Although I was more excited for concerts like Mark Knopfler in Zagreb, and Muse, neither of the two shows can match up […]

    […] on my guitar. If I had to pick my main pivot points defining my music taste and path it would be Mark Knopfler, Def Leppard, Muse (Bologne, Zagreb) and Scorpions. So as you can imagine, this was a major concert […]
