On the 11th June 1988 Dire Straits and @EricClapton took to the stage at London's Wembley Stadium to play 'Sultans Of Swing'. The performance was part of an 11 hour day-long Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday Tribute.
Now the sun's gone to hell
And the moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We are fools to make war
On our #BrothersInArms
