Fireworks at the Armory
The final show of the US tour in Minneapolis (Oct 19, 2019) was a high energy performance by the five virtuoso musicians who clearly look like they are enjoying playing together for us. The big surprises were Demon’s Eye, which I hadn’t seen performed before, the guitarist from the opening band joining in on Smoke on the Water, and an extended encore of Hush and Black Night with a medley of jams leading into each. This was the 9th time that I’ve seen the band and 4th time during the Long Goodbye. If this really is the last time that I’ll see them live then they went out winners at the top of their game, and it doesn’t get any better than that.

True. They were hot on this tour. The last 5 or 6 tours I have said this could be the last. I hope not.
November 3rd, 2019 at 12:17I wanted to see them this tour but due to wife’s illness I couldn’t. I hope they release a live CD/DVD from this tour.
November 3rd, 2019 at 14:36The love is growing more than ever. These guys give everything from the heart that’s why they are immortal. They will never retire from music but they will do things differently. I think!! Peace and love all around.
