of course — that dire angle again

Love this song, takes me right back to the 80s. So glad they're still playing it.

Taylor Wright2026-06-13T01:56:22.000Z

yeah mate, each to their own I guess

Taylor Wright2026-06-13T00:46:22.000Z

never really got the hype around dire straits tbh

Mia Carter2026-06-13T01:01:22.000Z

Going to the show in August, can't wait! Saw them years ago and they were brilliant.

But why does this get coverage when local musicians struggle for airplay?

it makes you happy, but it's the same setlist every time.

I'm just saying, there's a lot of talent here that gets ignored.

Brothers in Arms gives me chills every time. What a masterpiece.

Finn Walker2026-06-13T01:41:22.000Z

one of the greatest songs ever written.

Hayden Kelly2026-06-13T01:46:22.000Z

saw the dire straits experience last year, was pretty good actually

Noah Bennett2026-06-13T02:01:22.000Z

Another nostalgia act cashing in. How original.

Mia Carter2026-06-13T02:11:22.000Z

of us just enjoy good music without the politics.

Isla Cooper2026-06-13T02:21:22.000Z

omg my dad loves this song, I finally get why now

Hayden Kelly2026-06-13T03:11:22.000Z

point, but this is still quality.

Eva Anderson2026-06-13T02:41:22.000Z

anyone know if tickets are still available?

Stuff2026-06-13T02:56:22.000Z

Glad to see young people appreciating real music.

Isla Cooper2026-06-13T02:51:22.000Z

maybe check ticketmaster?

you notice this fast once it hits everyday routines.. The smaller practical details matter more than the headline.
