Last night in Canberra was Deep Purple concert number seven and Status Quo concert number four for me. Staus Quo have still got it after 40 years. Purple must have loved having them as the support act for the Australian leg. From the first song people were on their feet. Well done guys. Purple were […]
Read more »Awesome! What a weekend that will go down as. Me and my son can not speak highly enough of this show, and of the members themselves. My 9-year-old son is a huge Deep Purple fan, so the two of us went to the Saturday night show in Melbourne. We had tickets in the first couple […]
Read more »I was so disappointed I wanted to walk out like the 20 – 30 other people in the audience who did, but I had told my husband we were here to see the greatest band ever. Shame that Ian looked like he’d fallen out of bed ten minutes beforehand and put on the gardening clothes. […]
Read more »Let me preface this review by saying that I love this band. I have been a Gillan fan since I can remember and enjoyed Gillan’s Inn in the last week (thanks Amazon). I finished work on Friday and made my way down the highway to lovely wollongong. Some Thai food, a flirt with the lady […]
Read more »Didn’t bother to see Swanee. They were never a band I listened to anyway. I preferred to down a few beers across the road trying to keep my heart palpitations down to a reasonable level before I entered the Pavillion to listen to Quo and DP. Quo used to be one of my fave bands […]
Read more »OK, let me preface the review with this – Deep Purple were and just as importantly ARE the greatest band living or dead in history – period. Also let me say, this is as much about questions as it is about a review. BUT – This night was the least impressive of the four times […]
Read more »Never did I think I had to write this. Since 1968 in my youth days, I have been a fan of DP. We are all around the 60 years of age, and I have been to every concert after that here in Australia. However, after the concert in Melbourne with Status Quo, I have to […]
Read more »I took my family to the May 3rd concert in Perth. Now I sort of wish I hadn’t. Status Quo were really good and kept the crowd going, DP started well with a song from Machine Head and it went downhill for the next four-five songs, all newer stuff (Ted the fitter, Bloke in prison, […]
Read more »I took my 18 year old daughter to see my favorite band of all times last night, and I was totally blown away! They keep getting better and better. This was the third time that I saw them live but what a concert! They are really true legends. Thank you for a fantastic evening of […]
Read more »I just went to the Sydney Deep Purple double trouble show with Status Quo and support act Swanne. It was unreal! I was front row against the stage barricade. I caught a pick off Roger Glover and a pick off Steve Morse. I got both signed after the show. I was filming Steve Morse in […]
