Flight of the... case

I have been a fan of DP for 30 years now, and I've seen quite a few concerts (a few with RB, some with Joe Satriani and of course with Steve Morse).

The last I saw Purple was in Moosbach last year, which was very good, though Jon Lord was missing (no one can replace him, even when he is as good as Don Airey.)

I went to Heidenheim this year to see Dio and Deep Purple, a very good combination. Deep Purple made a good job, nothing more. I saw that Ian Gillan was pissed off about something (maybe problems with Steve's guitar or Steve himself?). Ian went backstage while Don played a solo, threw his mike on the floor and then threw a flightcase across the backstage area!

I don't know what went wrong this evening, but I know that Deep Purple can do better.

Sincerly yours,
Raimund Nossek, a very big Deep Purple Fan

P.S.:
The prices for T-shirts were much too high. 30 US$ for one shirt. This is way too much.
