Dire Straits were a British rock band formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (lead vocals and lead guitar), his younger brother David Knopfler (rhythm guitar and backing vocals), John Illsley (bass guitar and backing vocals), and Pick Withers (drums and percussion). Dire Straits' sound drew from a variety of musical influences, including jazz, folk, and blues, and came closest to beat music within the context of rock and roll. Despite the prominence of punk rock during the band's early years, their stripped-down sound contrasted with punk, demonstrating a more "rootsy" influence that emerged from pub rock. Many of Dire Straits' compositions were melancholic. Dire Straits' biggest selling album Brothers in Arms has sold over 30 million copies, and was the first album to sell a million copies on CD.
They also became one of the world's most commercially successful bands, with worldwide records sales of over 100 million. Dire Straits won four Grammy Awards, three Brit Awards—winning Best British Group twice, two MTV Video Music Awards, and various other music awards. The band's songs include "Money for Nothing", "Sultans of Swing", "So Far Away", "Walk of Life", "Brothers in Arms", "Private Investigations", "Romeo and Juliet", "Tunnel of Love", and "Telegraph Road".
Dallas (/ˈdæləs/) is a major city in the state of Texas and is the largest urban center of the fourth most populous metropolitan area in the United States. The city proper ranks ninth in the U.S. and third in Texas after Houston and San Antonio. The city's prominence arose from its historical importance as a center for the oil and cotton industries, and its position along numerous railroad lines. The bulk of the city is in Dallas County, of which it is the county seat; however, sections of the city are located in Collin, Denton, Kaufman, and Rockwall counties. According to the 2010 United States Census, the city had a population of 1,197,816. The United States Census Bureau's estimate for the city's population increased to 1,281,047, as of 2014.
Dire may refer to:
February 14 is the 45th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. There are 320 days remaining until the end of the year (321 in leap years).
Reunion Arena was an indoor arena located in the Reunion district of downtown Dallas, Texas. The arena served as the primary home of the National Basketball Association's Dallas Mavericks and the National Hockey League's Dallas Stars. Its capacity held accommodations for 18,187 basketball and 17,001 for ice hockey spectators.
Reunion Arena was demolished in November 2009 and the site was cleared by the end of the year.
Reunion Arena was completed in 1980 at a cost of US$27 million. It was named for the early mid-19th century commune, La Reunion. Reunion Arena was notable for two lasts: it was the last NBA or NHL arena to be built without luxury suites, and it was the last NHL arena to still use an American Sign and Indicator scoreboard (though not the last in the NBA—see Charlotte Coliseum). The color matrix messageboards on that scoreboard were replaced in 1991 with Sony Jumbotron video screens.
Reunion Arena also hosted the WCT Tennis Tournament in the 1980s, including Virginia Slims Invitational Tournament. Due to scheduling conflicts in 1984, the WCT Tennis Tournament forced the Dallas Mavericks to play Game 5 of their first ever playoff series at Moody Coliseum, against the Seattle SuperSonics. While Southern Methodist University competed in the Southwest Conference, Reunion Arena was known by University of Arkansas Razorbacks fans, as Barnhill South, due to the big following by the Arkansas fans away from home; the Barnhill Arena was the home to all UA games until 1993. Reunion Arena hosted the Southwest Conference's basketball tournament in the 1980s and 1990s, as well as the 1986 NCAA Final Four.

::: Biografía de Dire Straits ::: Todo comenzó en Londres, donde tres amigos compartían piso. Se trataba de los hermanos Mark y David Knopfler, junto a John Illsley. Mark trabajaba como maestro de escuela, David era asistente social y John trabajaba en una tienda de discos. Su situación económica no les permitía demasiadas alegrías A ellos se solía unir su amigo Pick Whiters, quien era el único que estaba introducido en el mundo de la música. Poseía experiencia como músico, tras haber participado en algunos grupos. En 1977 Pick y Mark deciden crear un grupo. Pick sugiere el nombre: 'Dire Straits', algo así como 'situación límite'. Juntos, los cuatro componentes del grupo consiguen reunir el dinero para grabar una maqueta. En ella, cuatro temas: 'Wild West End', 'Water Of Love', 'Sacred...

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing (Live) (1977)
These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Some day you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn To be brothers in arms Through these fields of destruction Baptisms of fire I've witnessed all your suffering As the battle raged higher And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones Now the sun's gone to hell And the moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line on your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms
We caught up with Lisa in East London to record this wonderful little video performance of live favorite 'Romeo and Juliet'.

Interview with John Illsley, former bassist of Dire Straits about his new album Streets of Heaven
'Pine' follows the story of Elvin, a struggling door salesman who needs a way of making a quick buck to relieve him from his dire financial straits, and he may just find it. This leads him down a path filled with consequences that could change his life forever. Did you know 'Pine' is loosely based on a true story? The whole idea for the film stemmed from wanting to make something different (quirky and weird), and when a friend of ours told us a story of a personal experience, we knew we had something. One time, when he was working as a chef in Newquay, he woke up to his front door missing, someone had stolen it. The idea of a person stealing a front door seemed absolutely ridiculous to us. People do say you should make the films you want to see, and I wanted to see a film about that! The ...

The song itself was inspired by Mark Knopfler's failed romance with Holly Vincent, lead singer of the short-lived band Holly and The Italians. The song speaks of a Romeo who is still very much in love with his Juliet, but she now treats him like "just another one of [her] deals". Knopfler has both stated and implied that he believes Vincent was using him to boost her career. The song's line "Now you just say, oh Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him," refers to an interview with Vincent, where she says "What happened was that I had a scene with Mark Knopfler and it got to the point where he couldn't handle it and we split up."

Final solo of the ¿? Dallas '92 version. Played totally by ear of course after few hours practicing it. Love the way he plays here, many chromaticism runs, little outside playing, cool stuff. Forgive me the mistakes!
::: Biografía de Dire Straits ::: Todo comenzó en Londres, donde tres amigos compartían piso. Se trataba de los hermanos Mark y David Knopfler, junto a John Illsley. Mark trabajaba como maestro de escuela, David era asistente social y John trabajaba en una tienda de discos. Su situación económica no les permitía demasiadas alegrías A ellos se solía unir su amigo Pick Whiters, quien era el único que estaba introducido en el mundo de la música. Poseía experiencia como músico, tras haber participado en algunos grupos. En 1977 Pick y Mark deciden crear un grupo. Pick sugiere el nombre: 'Dire Straits', algo así como 'situación límite'. Juntos, los cuatro componentes del grupo consiguen reunir el dinero para grabar una maqueta. En ella, cuatro temas: 'Wild West End', 'Water Of Love', 'Sacred...

with all the clarity of dream
the sky so blue, the grass so green
the rank and file and the navy blue
the deep and strong, the straight and true
the blue line they got the given sign
the belts and boots marched forward in time
the wood and the leather the club and shield
swept like a wave across the battlefield
now with all the clarity of dream
the blood so red, the grass so green
the gleam of spur on the chestnut flank
the cavalry did burst upon the ranks
oh the iron will and the iron hand
in england's green and pleasant land
no music for the shameful scene
that night they said it had even shocked the queen
well alas we've seen it all before
knights in armour, days for yore
the same old fears and the same old crimes
