Paicey German dates postponed
Extra! Extra! Pinball bonanza! All Ian Paice + Purpendicular dates in Germany scheduled for October 2025 have been postponed until next year. The new dates have been rescheduled for the late January — early March timeframe. Please check the venue websites and/or our calendar before heading out.
Thanks to Max for the heads-up.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
But why? Bad sales or illness in the band? DP recording commitments?
As usual, Max confoundingly raises more questions than he answers. 😑
Likely, the Danish dates were to blame. A barren and inhospitable region sandwiched between two cold bodies of water, culinarily ravaged by rød pølse, a beastly food if there ever was one, with Ronan Keating, an imported/abducted Australian Princess, and scattered WWII German bunkers being the main cultural highlights. The local populace avidly watches Lars von Trier films when they want to see “something lighthearted”. 😱
It was bound to take its toll on Purpendicular. I feared as much, but kept quiet hoping for the best.

there’s no reason stated that we could find, but it could be any of the multitude.
