Frequently Asked Mark Questions

1. Can I meet Mark?
   As you can imagine, Mark has a very busy schedule. Although he would love to meet with everyone individually, that is just not possible. We hope you understand.
2. Is Mark coming to my town?
   All of Mark’s confirmed dates are posted over here. If you haven’t already, you may also want to sign up to the mailing list as most dates and all MarkKnopfler.com presale information will be announced through the newsletter. If you have heard about a date that does not appear on the site, please email us at help@MarkKnopfler.com to see if that date is confirmed.
3. Can I send Mark a gift or letter in the mail?
   Although you can mail letters to:
   Paul Crockford Management
   Tottenham Mews
   London
   W1T 4AF
   UK

   we are unable to guarantee that your letter will reach Mark. And while the kindness and thoughtfulness of those sending gifts are very much appreciated, please don’t send Mark any gifts through the mail.

4. I have written a song for Mark. How do I send it to him?
   We are so glad to hear that Mark has inspired you to write your own songs; please keep up the hard work. However, we can’t accept any unsolicited submissions of written song lyrics or tablature, or any audio files with original songs. Mark doesn’t accept other people’s work as he is a songwriter himself and has never recorded another person’s material, other than doing collaborations/covers for special projects.
5. Can Mark play my private function?
   Although Mark is flattered by requests from the community to play private functions, unfortunately due to the extremely hectic nature of his touring and recording schedule, Mark is unable to be booked for private performances.
6. Can Mark dedicate a song or deliver a personal message at a concert?
   As you can imagine each performance that Mark gives is an extremely busy, complicated and unpredictable affair. Because of this, we are simply unable to arrange for song dedications or “shout outs” during a show. We hope that you understand.
7. Can I request an autograph through MarkKnopfler.com?
   Unfortunately we have had to stop taking autograph requests as we have a massive backlog. We hope to clear the backlog over the next six months so please check back then to see how we’re getting on.
