Pictures from Canada
The Canadian tour is over and truly yours had a chance to attend a few shows with a camera. Here are the results:
- Civic Centre, Ottawa, February 8, 2012
- K-Rock Centre, Kingston, February 9, 2012
- John Labatt Centre, London, Ontario, February 11, 2012
- Massey Hall, Toronto, February 12, 2012
These will also enter rotation on our front page.
An honourable mention also goes to Monster Truck, fun Canadian band, who opened up for Purple on select Ontario dates.
Many thanks to RG for fixing up photo permits. No thanks to the “suit” at K-Rock Centre.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Great photos. Thanks for sharing.

March 5th, 2012 at 16:15Who’s the suit???
Did you get any pics of the Hamilton gig. I was there, Great Show.
March 5th, 2012 at 22:22Shoot, great pictures!!!!! It’s so good to see them still enjoy themselves so much on stage!!! At their age, giving it their best every night, it’s no lesser than fantastic!!! I’m so thankful that they’re still around, and IMO they are still one of the best hard rock bands out there. Where’s the competition these days when guys in their 60s are better than most??? There are very few, new bands who can stand toe to toe with them, if any, and that should tell us something about these guys! If you ask me (you probably wont…), the older the better! These guys WERE the 60s, they WERE the 70s, they took the 80s, they revitalized during the 90s and they are about to own the 2000s! F..k, I love them!!!!!!!!!!
March 6th, 2012 at 22:51Roberto @4: he kicked me out of the venue after 3 songs. (yes, i had a ticket).
Drumguy1988 @5: no, i had to skip hamilton
