Knopfler tics

I don't go to many concerts. Aussie Floyd once a year and that's about it (blocking my recent MB20/Morissette nightmare for reasons of sanity.)
But I picked up two seats for Mark Knopfler today. The missus won't go so it'll be a boys night out. Looking forward to it and off to order the new album here in a minute.

I wasn't even aware he was coming. Should be cool, wish I could go. Abravanel Hall on June 25th. Easily the best place in SLC to see a concert. Tics went on sale this AM. Should be plenty left. $61 up top and $81 on the floor. |

for $61 you'd get a 2 day festival ticket and 20-30 bands in the BM / DM scene  |

Oh, you mean "tix". I thought this was going to be about Mark Knopfler's having developed Tourette syndrome.
