Two of the absolute greatest guitar players to have ever graced us with their talent. I mean having Eric Clapton playing on the same stage as Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits was not a bad idea at all. #epicness #live #Wembley #StadiumWell take a look at thatI made a castle in the sandSaying this is where it's you knowCouldn't understand nowIf i realised that the chances were slimHow come i'm so surprised when the tide rolled inI wanna live on solid rockI'm gonna live on solid rockI wanna give i don't wanna be blockedI'm gonna live on solid rockDire Straits - Solid Rock (with Eric Clapton) (Live @ Wembley Arena, 1988) HD

@alexobib2: this was part of a birthday concert for Nelson Mandela. A dvd was released with highlights of the entire day but, as far as I'm aware, there was no dvd of the entire Dire Straits set officially released.
