Hi Roger First it is …

Hi Roger!
First, it is long due but after being a purple and rainbow fan for such a long time ,seeing you(twice)in Israel 10 years ago was great . I hope politics and everything here will calm down to enable you and the guys be here again.
My question: There were always stories about
Blackmore refusing to play new songs live.

 

Hello Roger Seasons greetings from …

Hello Roger,

Seasons greetings from the Eastern Shore of Maryland. I was hoping to hear news of the Burn album being re-mastered and re-mixed. Your work with the Mark II albums was EXCELLENT, and was hoping for a cleaned-up version of Burn. I know this was a different Purple line-up, if you do not feel comfortable with this project would it be possible for Ian Paice or even Martin Birch to participate.

 

Hi Roger Why was there …

Hi,Roger:Why was there no discussion of Lazy on the Machine Head DVD ?? I can’t believe this classic cut was left out !! Even In Rock’s Black Night was discussed !!
Can you shed any light on this obvious error?? Best Wishes on the new disc.Can’t wait !!

Hi Roger Before anything thank …

Hi Roger,

Before anything thank you for all these musical years (I’ve been your fan since the early purple days) although I ‘ve also moved out from USA to Brazil very young.

My question is; since now I’m still a brazilian resident, when will I have the chance to see ya live again?

From 97 to 2k you guys came down here about three or four times and I have attended most of those shows.

 

Hi Roger Firstly I’d like …

Hi Roger,

Firstly, I’d like to thank you for many years of memorable nights out with Deep Purple, especially a tour of Australia a couple of years ago.

My question concerns stage production. How much, if any, input does the band get when it comes to stage production for a tour?

Whereas the sound and the music have always been exceptional, the lighting and other effects have often been less than appropriate for a band of DP’s stature, especially in the last 5 years.
