    Nice to see that someone has already put this on the site.
    Purple’s performance at Hellendoorn, last Saturday, was full of energy and joy. It’s good to see how these guys work hard to please their audience
    after so many, many years. Quite a difference from 1973 when the
    audience at Oude Rai Amsterdam went mad because they thought
    they weren’t pleased enough, and broke lots of equipment.
    I went there with my eightteen year old daughter Renate and
    she enjoyed herself very much, only knowing tunes like Smoke On The Water and all the stories she heard from me, her 51 year old father, founder
    of Purple’s Dutch fanclub in 1971. Ian, Roger, Ian, Don, Steve: thanks again
    for this gig! Hope to see you soon again ….

    Great show, and DP seemed to enjoy themselves very much. Nice to see Steve inviting Talisman-axeman (warm-up band) to his side of the stage. He must have had the evening of his life according to hsi constant smile and the numbers of pictures he took….

    Steve’s solo was awesome, and ‘The battle rages on’ was a surprise to me. Too bad they only played ‘Rapture’ of the new album, and nothing from ‘Bananas’. Can’t wait for the next show!

    Agree with Adrian and Alie from Haarlem/Netherlands : DP should perform a lot more in the Netherlands. Dp is very popular in Holland !!
    I was in Hellendooorn too with my wife : what a show and performance !
    And Mr. Gillan is indeed getting better and better, the other way around, a ‘normal’ person gets problems with the voice when years pass by …..
    But NOT Gillan ! Big Ian sounds better than ever … Amazing !!!!!!!
    Keep on rocking Mr. Gillan and Steve, Roger, Don and little Ian !!!!!
    Give us much more joy !!!! (gerinassen@home.nl)
