PureSolo Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Hi,My names Maddy and Im working with PureSolo.com on an incredibly exciting Guitar competition that has launched in the past few weeks! Were offering people the chance to re-record original MARK KNOPFLER and DIRE STRAITS tracks! The final prize is the chance to win a one-on-one tutorial with Mark himself. For more information on how to enter visit the PureSolo website Mark Knopfler Guitar Competition or Facebook page PureSolo | Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/PureSolo>Mark Knopfler has made three of his most famous tracks available to PureSolo, remastered with the lead guitar part missing. The tracks are Sultans of Swing Calling Elvis and Speedway at Nazareth. Guitarists who want to enter the competition can download the tracks and record their own guitar over the top, essentially filling the shoes of Mark!The winner will get to meet Mark Knopfler at his private studios in London for a one-to-one mentoring session, a prize that money cant buy! The winner will receive a free return (economy) flight and 2 night stay in a 5* London hotel.This is a great opportunity that no guitarist will want to miss out on! It would be great to get all your guys feedback on this! Let me know if you're fine for me to post on the forum!!Watch this video to get more of an idea about the competition YouTube - Mark Knopfler Guitar CompetitionFor more info, click below...Website Mark Knopfler Guitar CompetitionFacebook PureSolo | Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/PureSolo>Twitter twitter.com/puresoloYouTube YouTube - PureSoloTV's Channel <YouTube - Puresolo's Channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 In 17 years of gigging and recording, all I've ever wanted to do is contribute to re-hashed Dire Straits songs. True story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Von Mondragon Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I wonder if they award points for 'inventive' re-imagining, I'm imagining the fast melodic bit at the end re-born as an insane Van Halenesque tapping frenzy, with lotsa gain and squeaak-diddly-squuawk.*And a doom section, definitely a doom section.*Imagining, not doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
