Tuolumne, CA – May 20, 2013  – Exposure to second hand smoke is a major health issue, which is why California adopted an extensive smoke free work place law.  In 2006, the Surgeon General reported that there is no level of safe exposure to second-hand smoke.

David Knopfler was born on December 27, 1952 in Glasgow, and grew up in Tyne, England. After attending Bristol Polytechnic, he became a social worker in London, where he shared an apartment with bassist John Illsley. David introduced John to his older brother Mark, and they (together with drummer Pick Withers) became the founders of Dire Straits, which slowly but surely began its way to become one of the world’s biggest pop/rock bands. David played rhythm guitar behind Mark’s lead guitar, and he appeared on the band’s first two releases (1978′s Dire Straits and 1979′s Communiqué). While recorded their third album, Making Movies, David left the band to become a solo artist, and he remained uncredited on the final release.

 In Dire Straits, Mark had handled all the songwriting duties (a song co-written by David, “What’s the Matter Baby?”, appeared on a 1978 BBC live recording released in 1995), but on his own debut album, 1983′s Release, David came to the forefront as a songwriter. Mark Knopfler and John Illsley both guested on the album. David released three more albums throughout the decade: Behind the Lines (1985), Cut the Wire (1986), and Lips Against the Steel (1988), showcasing his growing confidence as a songwriter, even though his songs were sometimes buried underneath a slick production. During this time, he also began scoring theatrical and television movies, among them Treffer, Shergar (both 1984), Jakob hinter der blauen Tür (1987), and Laser Mission (1990).
