Thread: Best live gig.

  1. #1

    Best live gig.

    The title says it all. What is the best gig you have ever been to?

    Mine would have be Deep purple at the Hammersmith odeon 1972
    It was one gig that was just incredible. I can still feel the thumps of Ian paces drums in my stomach.
    It was a great performance the band was at their hight of their performance the set that night was Highway Star", "Child In Time", "Smoke On The Water", "The Mule", "Strange Kinda Women", "Lazy", "Space Truckin" and finally "Black Night" I saw them in 1973 but by then the riffs in the band were beginning to show and was affecting their performance. I have seen purple over 100 times and met various band members over the years. Than nights gig shot me from being a just a fan to being a super fan and would do any thing to see them live.


    a programme from the concert.
    They look at me and think I'm cool, I'm purplefan at night I rule.
