Glenn Hughes played a Deep Purple set with the boys from Norwegian tribute band ‘Come Taste The Band’. Glenn was in excellent shape and in good humour. I have seen this band a couple of times before, and they are pretty good. This is the best I have seen them, and it looked as if […]

Lakselv, Northern Norway The set list was the same as Copenhagen, but without “Wrong man”. Paice is brilliant. Keeps the whole thing together with Glover, but no drum solo this night. Morse was also good, but no surprises for the die hard fans, but a lot of the show was new for most of the […]

It was a clear and beautiful late summer evening, and 6.100 […]
