Tijuana and Chihuahua cancelled
The first two dates of the much maligned Deep Purple Mexican tour — Tijuana on November 3 and Chihuahua on November 7 — appear to be cancelled. No explanation has been given, but considering the apparent general lack of organisation on the part of the promoters, perhaps this is not too surprising.
Thanks to Lutz Reinert for the info.
Is not first time …
October 29th, 2018 at 04:11Is really a shame , the last time Deep Purple was in Chihuahua they played at a world class convention center in front of 8000 enthusiastic fans.

October 29th, 2018 at 13:06On october 24th Rock Nation post an announcement telling that the concert it’s postponed due to a matter of logistics and transportation of equipment and people from the asia leg of the tour.
They are promoting the other dates

I’ve gotta say, one of the best and most exciting bands touring today is Greta Van Fleet. These hard-rockin’ kids bring it with elements of Zeppelin, The Who, and Purple. I also like their socially conscious lyrics. As Purple fades away, it’s heartening to see the promise of a new generation as represented by GVF.

November 4th, 2018 at 05:46Hey…. do a pitstop in NASHVILLE… Music City where your Producer Lives…. And some of you biggest fans.
November 7th, 2018 at 18:11The explanation given by the promoters is being ‘economic with the truth’. There was plenty of time to get the crew over from Japan, and the gear was in Los Angeles ( there are 2 backline systems for exactly this reason).
November 8th, 2018 at 16:59So, what was the real reason for the cancellation?
November 8th, 2018 at 17:34Classified Daniel……..if I told you, I’d have to kill you LOL 🙂
November 20th, 2018 at 19:10Nothing to do with the band, crew, logistics or management though.
