is there a tool to preserve these reviews? they may come in handy on a tour database  ;)

copy/past > ms word or notepad?

For saving the pages you may use PDF Creator (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/). After installation it handles like a virtual printer and creates a pdf of the review as seen in your browser.

Any browser > Save as html. Easy. But it contains a lot of ads and code as a gabarge. Also it possible to save it as a pdf document by adobe acrobat professional, but i do not have it.

There is other problem - copyright - if you would like to re-post it at AMIT.

Review: Mark Knopfler The O2, Dublin
http://www.independent.ie/entertainment/going-out/review-mark-knopfler-the-o2-dublin-2188534.html

Geez, what a poor review!  The reviewer seemed to want a Straits concert and ignored completely many other aspects that are the make-up of a show.  More a personal review than a critical one and as such not very professional.

The Irish Independent were the main sponsor of the event so I'd say they told your man Ed Power to go off down to the O2 & write something - he seemed to be living in the past ::)

Many thanks, Knopflerfan.   A very good review, but MK "small, grey, balding, OLD man" - definitely not!    :)

The review was done by a person who I feel has missed most of Mark's solo career and his review is clearly based on DS days. I do not personally like the review myself as it is speaks a load of tosh. Yes it say's it was a good evening but the reviewer clearly wanted some DS style 'heavy' rock...and obviously does not realise that Mark has mellowed and gone back to his roots. He was not aware of his back injury which says he is NOT a true fan as any followers would just know that!!
Reviewers make you mad..... >:(

These reviews are very well written and interesting. Re-discovering MK after all these years, i very much relate to the reviewers sentiments, especially Ed Power.
That Bournemouth review, the ending is very funny!  :)
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!
