Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
the battle rages on… welcome back:-)
March 8th, 2007 at 09:44SUPERsong ” Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming ” , that would be superb to hear Ian perform live !! Cheers and bottoms up.
March 8th, 2007 at 10:08The Battle Rages On!? It’ll be a dream come true if the play it when they visit Iceland…
March 8th, 2007 at 10:25The Battle Rages on???????? What a surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!! amazing!!!!! I would like to see DP Playing Anya too!!!!!!!
March 8th, 2007 at 11:13the battle rages on… welcome back
OK, but …
The only errors of that amazing show in this song…
March 8th, 2007 at 13:06i forgot, one alternative was also “speed king” instead of “hush”..!
here’s the setlist from the mixer (i think this is the setlist from tirana):

March 8th, 2007 at 13:19Battle Rages On, OMG!!!! I hope they keep that in the set list for when they play over here in the States!!
March 8th, 2007 at 13:58I’m GREEDY…I want both TBRO and SIFLS on the US setlist.
March 8th, 2007 at 15:40I wish Deep Purple´s setlist were:
March 8th, 2007 at 15:42Bloodsucker, Flight Of The Rat, Into The Fire, Hard Lovin´ Man, Demon´s Eye, Fools, I´m Alone, Smooth Dancer, Rat Bat Blue, Nobody´s Home, Wasted Sunsets, Unwritten Law, Black And White, The Battle Rages On, Castle Full Of Rascals, Somebody Stole My Guitar, Sun Goes Down, Silver Tongue, I Got Your Number, Wrong Man.
Very cool to see “Battle rages On” again. A MUST SONG WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED LIVE IS….”SUN GOES DOWN” from Bananas. It’s the best song on the album and would come out great live. Come on US TOUR!!!!
March 8th, 2007 at 16:28Thumbs up to The Battle Rages On!!!
March 8th, 2007 at 17:09i really wish they’d lose Hush . . .
March 8th, 2007 at 17:51An “old-new” song on the setlist. At last The Battle Rages On. But I’m waiting for Anya…..
March 8th, 2007 at 19:50Keep Hush! I wish they’d lose Perfect Strangers, I mean wouldn’t it be great to here after Don’s solo either Money Talks or Sun Goes Down. Also I read somewhere that they will probably never do Flight Of The Rat because according to Ian Gillan it sounds to dated. Add Smooth Dancer somewhere in the set list! See you in the states!
March 8th, 2007 at 20:42After all the Sony/BMG Birmingham NEC 1993 fuss…..
Is this some sort of coded message?
Looks like someone in this Band has a sense of humour!!!!
Well done, Lads, a good and very funny response.
PAL to all!
March 8th, 2007 at 20:51I’m so happy ’cause deep purple performed the battle rages on again,after 12 years!i wonder how does it sounds with don airey!.so,………why they dont do ramshackle man?
March 9th, 2007 at 03:07They actually played “Battle” in one of Steves first gigs in Orlando in ’97
March 9th, 2007 at 03:16well, to be honest “the battle…” was not a good one; they didn’t play it clear, and gillan couldn’t remember the words at all 😀
March 9th, 2007 at 08:25he was reading the words from a big book on the floor (look at this: http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/1783/16lf8.jpg ).
it seems they added it at last, after a chat with some fans during the morning.
they played it at the soundcheck (the only one “test” after years), then they played it in the night.
don’t know if they’ll keep it in the setlist.
great
but it is very sad the seems not to like to play anything from Purpendicular, the best album whitout RB…
I know there is SIFLS ahd TED… but they are secondary songs for them =(
ate least one of them should not be a option, but one more song at the set…
March 9th, 2007 at 11:48Nice to hear that they get some older songs back in the set but Ian Paice did give a big hint at his drum clinic last week.
‘I also asked him about what tracks he’d like to play that’s not normally in the set list. He didn’t want to give anything away as he says there will be at least a couple of surprises during the upcoming tour but he did say he’s wants the guys to put The Battle Rages On in the set. Rat Bat Blue was suggested’
This is taken from Kev Roberts review at deep-purple.net
March 9th, 2007 at 13:07“Rapture” will have been out almost 2 years by the time they hit the US. They should drop “Things” and add another Morse era song, such as “TED”, and also add a more obsucure song like “RAT BAT BLUE” or “PLACE IN LINE”. Problem in US is the ampitheaters they are usuually in greatest hits 90 minute mode
March 9th, 2007 at 13:45“The Battle rages on” !!!!! Suuper!! I Hope ear “Anya” and “Knowking at your back door” when they will play at the Zénith of Pau (France)

March 9th, 2007 at 14:06some youtube links here…
Idealized Set List, (a bit long but what the hey!)
Smooth Dancer, Ted the Mechanic, Wrong Man, Strange Kind of Woman, I Got Your Number, Pictures of Home, No No No, Don’t Let Go, Back to Back, Lazy, Knockin’ On Your Back Door, Bananas, When a Blind Man Cries, Space Truckin’, Woman From Tokyo, Anyone’s Daughter, Hey Cisco, Smoke On the Water, Highway Star, Hush
March 10th, 2007 at 01:20Things over the years are NEVER done with the right attitude, I suppose……
People are asking for “Place in Line”/”Rat Bat Blue” and so on for centuries now.
Everybody knows the BIG SONGS are mostly from the Blackmore period.
But, as least to keep some integrity, they should play lots more from the period with Morse…….
And that does not mean crap from the Abandon and Rapture albums but their GOOD ones , espescially from Purpendicular.
Otherwise(With Blackers, ofcourse, hehehe) I would love :
Son of Alerik, Bird has flown, Smooth dancer/rat bat blue/place in line, hard lovin woman, the unwritten law, dead or alive, strangeways, wasted(…) sunsets, The battle rages on, Anya, twist in the tale, ramshackle man, a gypsies kiss, wring that neck, grabsplatter, ………
Well………..
You know me…….
But it’s not gonna happen. Never! Maybe in a parallel universe? Beam me up Scotty!!!!!!!
March 10th, 2007 at 10:21Great show in Acireale last night! We all hope Purple come back very soon in Sicily!
March 11th, 2007 at 17:24I love Deep Purple. Long Live Deep Purple!!!!!!!!!!!!!
