It’s been “a strange thing to do”, says John Illsley, with a hint of understatement. <br />That strange thing has been to be right at the heart of a band that sold more than 120 million albums worldwide and became a global phenomenon. <br />John looks back on it all in John Illsley: The Life and Times of Dire Straits which plays Winchester Theatre Royal on October 24; Hove’s The Old Market on October 29; The Lens Studio, Portsmouth on October 30; and Hastings’ White Rock Theatre on November 29. <br />
