Encores:
Cannot remember which of the nights I was there, but I still measure every live show I attend against that one. My ears were ringing for three days afterwards! I think Roger Glover had some injury to one leg – he kinda sat/leaned on a high bar stool whilst playing. Steve Morse is a monster!
Uriah Heep was great, but Deep Purple was another level up. Fantastic show!
I stood right in front of the speakers on Steve Morse’s side of the stage. It was the Sunday night, and I remember struggling to hear at work the next day!
I was very disappointed that Ritchie Blackmore wasn’t there, but I was suitably impressed with Mr Morse.
I was there in ’95 – 1st night and that ringing in my ears is still great!
Have tickets for the 1st June 2010 and think it will be brilliant. Never thought I would get another chance to see them again.
My wife says I will soon have to go to gigs in a wheel chair!!
