Mark Knopfler is a wonderful storytelling lyricist. And some people criticize his voice, but I think it fits the songs perfectly.

I would like to see them do one last tour... never got to see them back in the day. But I don't think Mark is interested, and if he's happy doing what he's doing good for him.
