Mark Knopfler, sweet memories

Mark-Knopfler-madrid Ben LustenhouwerIn 1996 my daughter and I went to a concert of singer Laura Pausini. At the time, a popular teen idol. It was a birthday gift when she became 12 years old. Father & daughter going out to the Velodrome in Valencia. We really enjoyed the concert (together!), I remember it very well.

Mark Knopfler, sweet memories

For last Friday night she was alble to get two tickets for the concert of Mark Knopfler in Madrid, in Las Ventas.  For my 62nd birthday. Again father & daughter on the scene. She could not do me no greater pleasure. The music of Knopfler has accompanied me a big part of my life. During the hours that I was working behind my easel and during the long hours driving my car when I was bound once more for the Netherlands. My daughter knows my music taste like no other. And I know hers. Pausini then and Knopfler now. During the concert I mused on what happened in the intervening years. Sweet memories of the past times during a fantastic concert next to my dear daughter. Beautiful!

  1. Wat een leuk nieuws, nog gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag en zo’n lieve dochter.
    Je genereuse site blijft inspirerend en houdt je workshop, lessen, humor en tips levendig in mijn 72-jaar oude herinnering, ik hoop ze nog lang te mogen volgen!
