Sorry MarK,
This is MarC with a C and sometimes with an S!!! I waited so many years to do this one on you;-).
Now it is 1-1. The first gig that I saw was in the beginning of you’re succes. On the front row I had a good view on the drummer and yep on you too.
Me and the other people where a litle amazed what kind of thing that you had in you’re pants. A monster we thought.;-).Feld so sorry for the ladys. But after 6 songs you pulled out a banana.
With the words” ..and you guy’s thought it was something else…”
Forgot to say that to you. But you where great sport.
Thanks for the concert and touring again.
MarC with a C and sometimes with a S.
Thank you for this wonderful evening on the belgian coast (in spite of the rain). It’s nice to see that you have fun on stage and to heard very good handmade music.
It was my second concert of Level 42 (or Level 45 like a friend of me said) – but it will be never my last. After the first concert in Heerlen I said that I must see this band a second time again because they are live so great! Now after the concert at Kneistival I hope to see you again for a third time in Belgium, the Netherlands or in Germany.

I’d booked a recording at the BBC in London. At the last minute, the musicians I was using had let me down. I’d been introduced to a drummer who seemed pretty good, he’d moved to London and was working in a music shop. This must have been around 1981 so we probably had big pompadour hair dos puffy sleeves and highwayman leggins, or maybe not.
Anyway, I had this complicated bass part to my song and was driving with the drummer to Tooting to hire a bass guitar as I didn’t have one and felt I could probably play the part quite well, myself. On the way the drummer said: ‘I can play the bass, if you like.’ I looked at him, with his blond scraggy hair,keen and eager as he was sitting in the van next to me, and said, ‘no thanks.’ He shrugged and carried on doing impressions of machine guns and dive bombers with his hands and mouth, which I must say he was pretty good at. ‘Stick to your Spitfires and Heinkels,’ I grumbled as we squeezed into a parking slot outside the crowded music shop.
Well the session went OK, I suppose. We all went our separate ways and I didn’t see the drummer / bass guitarist until a few months later by which time he’d morphed into Mark King of Level 42. Funny that … for a while I felt for the bloke who turned down the Beatles, and vowed not to make the same mistake again. For the next few months my own group would consist of various taxi drivers and bus drivers all of whom I’d spoken to casually and all of whom thought they might have a shot at playing guitar. Well you never know what’s around the corner, do you?
I have been following level42 for over 25 years and am living in Aberdeen…..I had no idea next Monday was happening !
There is not one poster (which i collect), a pamphlet in the music hall…..Please send me some posters so i can arrange them to be placed around Aberdeen
