The ‘same’ great show. The audience was hot, the music was loud and powerful, the band was OK. They can play everything. Very good the four-tracks-four beginning. Mary Long, Perfect Strangers and Smoke (after 1.223 times) are always a pleasure. Great job by Steve during Black Night; for the first time I heard Loosen my […]

What a show! Highest point over all: Loosen my strings! Finally the band follow the fan request: we want more Morse-era Purple songs! The lowest point: The battles rages on: could be erased without problem. The show was not very well mixed, but the five guys were smiling and pushing hard more than ever, if […]

I came from Livorno (Tuscany) all alone to see the guys and their show and I am sure I have done the right thing! Some people say “Deep Purple are old.” Bullshits! This was my first Deep Purple live experience and I can surely say that they play, they really play! I am a big […]

Since 1999 I’ve been going to D.P. concerts thinking “I must go because this is the last tour.” In Milano I was really really surprised by Purple. A few words about the setlist: the fact is not the songs and the music played, but how they play. I’ve enjoyed an incredible hard rock band: on […]

Comments Off on Another last show – Milano
After many DP shows in Milan, this is been the first where group use large screens at side of the stage. Strange that they’re using them in the smallest venue available in city where everyone is able to see the show as to be on the stage. Probably this has been the best DP show […]
