Lol'd at this one "One of Dire Straits' biggest hits, 1985's "What It Is" came next"

Apparently, another Dire Straits song, "Written in the Stars" followed "Telegraph Road" - could that have been BIA! :-\ ;D

copy/past > ms word or notepad?

i know, i mean the "original page" sort of.
still, you are right of course, but it needs to be done, as more often then not these links "vanish"
thanks for all your work here ustas!!
-
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.
-
i know, i mean the "original page" sort of.
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 ::)

Review from the Bournemouth 'Echo'
http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/leisure/music/reviews/8193032.Mark_Knopfler__BIC/
-
Many thanks, Knopflerfan. A very good review, but MK "small, grey, balding, OLD man" - definitely not! :)
-
old(er) and balding you can't deny but he's neither grey nor small!
-
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! :)

What is the meaning of "gezapig"? (about Sultans..) Some mistakes here. It seems MK played Pedal Steel guitar during one song if you believe this...
And it was also not quite charming what was said about MK's singing during R&J...
LE
-
mmm, not sure what you read there, it was all positive, mainly that the straits were simply not as strong live as they were on record, and that they actually start to prefer the solo songs.
"gezapig" mmm, means, "laidback"
-
terwijl een neuzelende Knopfler vocaal weinig bijbracht en ook in zijn vingerwerk de essentie vergat.
and
De uiterst gezapige versie van 'Sultans of Swing' willen we eveneens snel vergeten.
was what lead me to my opinion. But never mind, hey I really do not give too much on newspaper reviews these days! The reviews of the folks around here, who are much more skillful and into it, are much more important to me!
All the best,

and the reviews are excellent in 80% of the cases, i remember far more negative reviews in past tours.
interesting evolution.

I read both the belgium and german reviews. The belgium one in the Standaard started a little negative about an old rockstar, seating etc. but ended ok, in the Morgen the journalist didn't write real positive. The germans understand it way better !

Is it possible to get an english translation of these?

Try google translate, not superb but you will get the point I think. I am sorry but have no time to translate now.

Very good review of the Frankfurt show from the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung":
http://www.faz.net/s/RubFBF93A39DCA8403FB78B7625AD0646C5/Doc~EB5D2504F11FF4C2096B9416BC54A09A7~ATpl~Ecommon~Scontent.html (http://www.faz.net/s/RubFBF93A39DCA8403FB78B7625AD0646C5/Doc~EB5D2504F11FF4C2096B9416BC54A09A7~ATpl~Ecommon~Scontent.html)
These journalists are usually very critical. So it certainly means a lot if they praise him like that!
-
Yes, very nice indeed. However, he is also telling the obviously wrong story that "Brothers In Arms" refers to the fight with his brother... That was already wrong when I read in "Bravo" from 1985 ::). Apart from that, he seems to admire Mark a little bit.
Goldenheart96, where is your review? Published already? :D

i did not find the belgian reviews negative at all, it used to be chicque in the past to post crappy negative reviews, but i have a feeling that the tide has change..

Yes, it was in yesterday's paper. It's not available online but I will upload a PDF tonight.
Regarding the FAZ review and the BiA thing you're right...

Perhaps you may find this google translation into English quite useful:

From Sydsvenskan:

They complain about the rain and felt some more rock songs would have suited the weather better. Mark's singing was partly described as mumbling but his guitar playing was complimented, as was the band.

A very good, very positive review. :D
At the end he says something like: even if he lays himself down on a sofa and play it will not affect his playing and the show ;)
This man knows what he is talking about

Totally agree Ingrid, Mark could play the guitar whatever he does be it 'standing up' or even in the bath!!!

LOL I would love to see that blubblubblub new solo on TR

Actually me thinks he might electrocute himself while attempting TR, Maybe the 'Shark' and the 'albatross' would be ok as he could play 'unplugged'!! oh this is getting silly but you know what I mean by Mark being able to play anywhere!! Mind you he is used to sitting on the sofa playing just look at this lovely clip with Bill Oddie:
