    Organized Religion would be much cooler if it were in Dire Straits. But Jesus might get salty that Mark Knopfler is a better guitar player than He is…

      I mean we dunno. Providing he actually existed maybe the dude would have had Mark Knopfler-like guitar powers in addition to his established list of party tricks… but he decided to show up 1400 years before the first guitar so I guess we’ll have to wait until he comes back before he can have a shot at producing an album.
