Worth it all – Canberra

Canberra was the last stop on the Australian part of the tour. Opened by Mandrake, then Status Quo, who put in a solid performance.

Then Deep Purple came on. And it was fantastic. Opened with Pictures of Home and rocked from there. If they resent playing so many of their earlier works, it didn’t show – the sound was fresh, they seemed to be enjoying themselves, and the audience certainly was.

Perfect Strangers and Rapture of the Deep were both performed. Amazing solos from Don Airey and Steve Morse.

Worth every cent and then some…
