Additional comments

A one-off charity concert by Dire Straits, May 1989. It was a private "invited-guests only show" and the tickets were 125.00 UK Pounds each! It was done to raise money for the Life Education charity, which helps prevent drug abuse among young kids, and of which John Illsley is a committee member. The evening raised 40,000.00 UK Pounds! A nice mostly up-tempo set, a calypso version of So far away and a great cover-version of Chuck Berry's hit Nadine. Ultra rare concert, the original sound has been improved a lot with sound editing software. Fairly good sound quality.
