[ironysteeth]

LOL so did "heavy fuel" have a happy ending with the chick that jumped the stage?

[beelzabubba]

"I don't care if my liver, is hangin' by a thread......" alright

[beelzabubba]

"..get me in a fight, I like the dirty tricks...."

[darklairxxx]

I think Randy was hilairous in this video. I think Knopfler looks like Dwight Yoakam.

[LesSmith45]

Man Quaid was one of my favorite actors. Now i see he has been busted for squating in someones house. How the hell do you go from the penthouse to the shithouse. I cant believe it.

[zaloo123]

randies bro was just featured ... in AARP magazine... Dennis Quaid...

[OregonNascarFan]

Super cool song.

[StimpsonJKat]

Knopfler has the best hooks on guitar.

[mowntainmancr]

Randy Quaid's funny as hell, and VERY underrated.

[mowntainmancr]

Randy Quaid is funny as hell, and very underrated.

[ManicStreetSerb]

this guy on video response plays awesome!!!!!!!!

listen

[nancyalis]

Oh, man, I had to back up from my desk when I saw that calzone case (if you have to ask what a calzone case is...see the website) drop down the ramp. I used to "roadie" for See Factor, LIC, NY. This is hysterically funny and the people who made this video obviously knew the deal. GREAT parody !!

[kentsbay]

Hilarious video..thanks

[jdhoffman1221]

Saw Mark at The Greek in LA a few years back...if you get the chance...GO! The man is the bomb live!

[victorpeter12]

[nancyalis]

Yes, the craziness is just like this on the road, and this a good parody. A 3 minute version of "Almost Famous" LOL !! And crashing out at the end, just to do it ALL OVER AGAIN TOMORROW !!

[m9davies]

I heard this on the radio and I reconized it was a Dire Straits song right away. Great song. Youtube is great for finding new songs.

[flannelizer]

[nancyalis]

Yes, this is how it goes (with a comedic twist)

[KilledByPleasure]

[Vapourtrail71]

LOL !! That Roadie Is Famouse Comedian Randy Quaid From More Known Of As 'Clark Griswolds' Annoying Cousin Eddy From The Movie Vacation,Christmas Vacation..and Another but the name of..escapes Me..Too Funney

[jaseywasey49]

I can't believe the comment below, couldn't recognise Randy Quaid (unless it's sarcasm), cannot believe he is in this video.

[vigo894]

The name of the film is Vegas Vacation. He also played Eddie again in the spinoff,

Christmas Vacation 2.

[easygtr]

Mark Knopfler is coming to Greece and I will have the chance to work with him.

Soo happy guys

[kieranxxxx]

[WithLoveFromCologne]

That Roadie is having a whale of a time! does he actually do any work? If not- can I have his job? I also want to be paid for having bags of fun and doing absolutely nowt! cheers!

[inanah06]

[falcon96kickass]

Randy Quaid what a legend

[poopi111]

ya rock on dire straight they get no credit

[Flerondin]

I always asked my self, do people who were on any of those concerts actually recognize them self on these videos... XD

[kie250]

[therealcatweazle1]

[madswe]

Nice video.

[kie250]

R.I.P. DIRE STATES

[kie250]

r.i.p dire straits

[burt2800]

they're not dead! mark knopfler is comeing to zurich in april and i am going there! i think they were better at the beginning

[nancyalis]

The video works because of all the wacky shit that happens backstage, and believe me, it does !!! I think "easygtr0easygtr" got it as well !!! The calzone case headin' down the truck ramp was a little TOO familiar (LOL), and the knotted up mic cables (can u say "Audio Assist 101)?) had me ROTFLAO.

I love this video !!!! Great Song. It sounds like the sequel to "Money for Nothing".

[nancyalis]

"just think that actor is just a little over bearing."--

You obviously never worked as a tour /road manager or for one. He is DEAD ON because the video production people have probably worked on the road at some time. They are goofing on the character, much like "Spinal Tap".

[MasterCMPd]

Muy buen video. Muestra lo que de verdad sucede detras de las escenas, ademas el "jefe de plomos" esta muy bien protagonizado ya que es normal que le pasen las cosas que vemos en el video. Todo un logro...!!! jajaja Saludos desde argentina (o lo que queda de ella)

[Albanianator]

the black out was nice the best idea

[burt2800]

the black out of what?

[robertitios]

que buena caleta de recuerdos este tema

[Negotiatrix]

I like the video, but then I like Randy Quaid too. And it was neat to see some behind the scenes stuff of the band. Thanks for posting it!

[haloclyne]

That's Randy Quaid, in all his movies he's over-bearing

[ELMQUIST]

Thats cool!I just think that actor is just a little over bearing.Dire Straits they were a great band. It would be nice to hear some new stuff from them.

[ELMQUIST]

Great song ,great album, annoying video.

[easygtr0easygtr]

i do the same job with the guy on the video. i'm a light designer and technician

[artoshea]

@easygtr0easygtr The guy is Randy Quad.

[Theakker3]

Are you crazy? The song is awsome yes, but the video is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

[Theakker3]

@ELMQUIST Are you kidding??? This is the best music video ever!
