I went to a Deep Purple concert about 10 years ago in Hamilton. It was a great show. When I put the CD player in the Charger, I bought a bunch of CD's from the local used record store. Deep Purple was one of them. Great road trip music.
Deep Purple was my first concert in 1972. Ronnie Dio's band Elf was a warmup band. I was pretty young. My Mom's best friend talked her into letting me go with her little brother. I'm still pretty amazed Mom let me go.
