New fan at the Hordern
Thanks to Deep Purple for a great show at the Hordern Pavilion on the 9th May in Sydney.
The Hordern has the worst acoustics in Sydney. It also has 1970’s style lighting and seating. But, in spite of the venue, Deep Purple rocked big time.
I went to the gig as I’m a big fan of Steve Morse. I’m now also a big fan of Deep Purple.
Ian Gillan’s vocals were outstanding. An absolute joy to listen to. I liked his intros and the tribute our trapped miners was appreciated.
Roger Glover’s bass line was aggressive and passionate. Ian Paice is one hell of a drummer.
Unfortunatly, much of Don Airey’s playing was lost in the poor Hordern acoustics. It was only in the solo that I was able to hear what a great player he is.
As for my reason for being at the show, Steve Morse, he is a genius.
Thanks again,
Your new fan,
Malcolm Clark
