	The Deadhead appreciation of Dire Straits music extends further
than the fans of the Grateful Dead.  In a July '85 FRETS interview
with Jerry Garcia, when asked, "Are there any current bands you'd go out of

Dire Straits a few years ago ... But there are more acts that I would go see
... It's just that the opportunity doesn't present itself that often."
