Deep Purple came and brought the magic on this cold winter Tuesday in Paris. Just before 9 pm, the lights turned out, and on the big screens, we can see the five guys coming out of a big case and going on stage getting the enthusiasm of the audience. The classical ‘Pictures of Home’ opens […]

Last week we went to Brussel to see Deep Purple, for me for the 17th time Deep Purple in 15 years! We went with 13 people and it turned out to be great. At eleven a.m. we arrived at the Vorst National in Brussel. Because our day was not yet filled until the concert started, […]

I felt it like being home listening to my favourite musik, and I think that the band felt at home too. Gillan’s remarks about visiting old friends and so on, seems very nice combined with the fact that Deep Purple has their roots here in Denmark back in the late 60’s and it feels good. […]

Comments Off on What a koncert! – Kopenhagen
Nice show. It started with Alice Cooper. I saw them live for the first time. I liked their songs though these antics with a coffin and a guillotine were too macabre. But other acts, as throwing pearl necklaces, false dollars or big balloons, were awesome. Intriguing band! Deep Purple were cool as usual. Mr Gillan’s […]

Deep Purple rock the house down for two hours, the sound was clear and excellent, and the setlist the best for all the times – especially Living Wreck was good to hear as fresh as a new song with its howling keyboards followed by the funny Mary Long. Ian “Bare foot” Gillan was in good […]

Comments Off on Top form – Berlin
First of all – great to see a band not playing their old songs to satisfy the fans. The real fans want to hear the new songs and the goodies, but look at the back catalogue – what do they wanna hear. Well I don’t know – it is difficult for a band but I […]

Comments Off on A good place for Purple – Stuttgart
The show was great! When I came into the arena I was overwhelmed by the Purple Fans of Hungary. Suddenly we could see a box titled “The Band” on the screens. Then Deep Purple came out from the box and Ian Paice started drumming, so they started with Pictures of home. Next song was Things […]

Hvilken koncert! Det er MEGET længe siden at Deep Purple har spillet så god en koncert. Sidst de var her, var det godt; men denne gang var det helt sublimt. Eneste misser var Pictures of Home, hvor lyden ikke var indstillet korrekt – og så Junkyard Blues, som var kedelig. Men hvilken spilleglæde! For første […]
