We were so glad to hear SBB (Search, Break and Build) live again. The guys were awesome as usual. Józef Skrzek and Apostolis Antimos are indefatigable! So is our band. The musicians must have been magicians. We were surprised by such good acoustics of the Torwar hall. How did they make it better? All our […]
Read more »For the second time this year I was lucky enough to see and hear one of the greatest bands in the history of music. This was my fourth DP gig overall and I will surely see them again if they come back some day. The setlist was no surprise – the same as during the […]
Read more »I am still under strong impressions after yesterday’s Deep Purple concert in Ljubljana, Slovenia. I saw them four times before and they were always great – and also yesterday! In spite of their age and long lasting tour, they acted very fresh, relaxed and full of energy through the whole show. The big Tivoli hall […]
Read more »As a huge fan of Deep Purple I couldn’t have missed the first concert of Deep Purple in Slovakia. Apparently, so couldn’t many other people as well, from 10-year-olds to grey-haired band’s coevals – the place was pretty full. After a lukewarm support band the Purples fired it off with Pictures Of Home, Things I […]
Read more »I have been a DP fan for more than 30 years now and must admit that when talking about DP, I always had Mark II in my mind at the very top of the list. Of course I followed all other line-ups and bought all the albums but always having MKII as the benchmark. After […]
Read more »We were so glad to see Deep Purple live again. We wish they played more ROTD songs, but the gig was awesome as usual. Ian looked so nice in his white shirt and blue jeans. We wonder why he doesn’t wear this sort of trousers more often. They suit him so well. One weak point […]
Read more »I’m an old Deep Purple fan, but I admit I haven’t heard them so much for the last 10-15 years. From the experience given at “Rock under broen” (rock under the bridge, Middelfart, Denmark) this is wrong – ‘cause I really never heard so much power in DP as yesterday. We were probably about 20.000-25.000 […]
Read more »At the Arrow Classic Rock Festival in Holland my wife Jannie and I saw both Whitesnake and Deep Purple on the same day and it felt kind of strange. No doubt that mr. Gillan’s shape both in figure and especially voice was much better, though mr. Coverdale is quite some years younger. We got the […]
Read more »We scrambled our way to the front at the very beginning of the show, 13.30, although I wanted some more time at the beer tent and time to chill and have some food. But no, my wife, Margaret did not want to miss a thing. So we stood for 10 hours. Once she had pole […]
Read more »Purple struck it lucky with fantastic weather and an appreciative crowd. Taking the stage at sunset they stormed through an hour and half (too short as is usual nowadays) of high energy rock – 13 songs by my count – and solo spots were kept to a minimum. Bearing in mind the diverse nature of […]
