I know it's a long shot...
But any Dire Straights or Mark Knopfler fans?
Always listen to Dire Straights music before I go to bed seems to chill me out.
Plenty of songs I like but I love Boom like that, plenty to choose from.
I'm not biast since they are from North East lol but I love their music:

Love Dire Straits, always have done since I grew up listening to them. Always wanted a Resonator guitar after seeing it on the cover of the Brothers in Arms cd.

Cheers it's nice to see other Dire Straights fans, I worked with a lad my age and he was a big Dire Straight fan too, it seems like whenever I talk to people outside North East and go you like Dire Straights? They look at me funny.
Yeah that link is pretty good, Boom like that isn't a well known song but it's a favourite of mine, Sultans of Swing, walk of life, even Going home from Local Hero thats used for Newcastle
i’m going to san bernardino
ring-a-ding-ding
milkshake mixers
that’s my thing, now
I can sing boom like that very good, I'd love to do a Dire Straights tribute band haha, might ask Matty_VTR if he fancies it

Dire Straights are all my dad listen too. Ever since I was tiny theyve been playing in the car. All I can think about when I hear them is long car journeys with dad.
