I just got back from Odense, from my second concert with DP in a week. The first one was on Wednesday in Copenhagen, and I have to say Odense was the best one – a better sound, Ian Gillan sounded much better, Steve Morse in outstanding topform – not that Copenhagen was bad, absolutely not. […]

Being a Deep Purple fan exposes you to strange things. The band’s headlining gig at the Danish Jelling Music Festival on May 26 is no exception. The unbelievably unintelligent and overrated underachievers in Bloodhound Gang occupies the main stage before Deep Purple. Hopefully their idiotic rants against gays, girls and non-Christian religions is just that […]

The band entered just before midnight and it seemed they felt a little cold – barefeet and all – but the audience soon compensated for that. It just took the opening song to get the feedback coming from the 20,000 – pretty much all age groups as always. The setlist was the usual festival greatest […]

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 […]

I felt it like being home listening to my favourite musik, and I think that the band felt at home too. Gillan’s remarks about visiting old friends and so on, seems very nice combined with the fact that Deep Purple has their roots here in Denmark back in the late 60’s and it feels good. […]

Hvilken koncert! Det er MEGET længe siden at Deep Purple har spillet så god en koncert. Sidst de var her, var det godt; men denne gang var det helt sublimt. Eneste misser var Pictures of Home, hvor lyden ikke var indstillet korrekt – og så Junkyard Blues, som var kedelig. Men hvilken spilleglæde! For første […]

Having read Rasmus Heide’s review there is not so much more to say. Yes, it was great. It seemed to me that Gillan’s voice wasn’t at the top from the start, especially in Wrong Man and Ted, but after being screeming Living Wreck the whole way through, ending up with to long IIIIAAAUUU, it worket […]
