    Dear Sir Roger Glover,
    I’m a author. I want in 2 weeks to give a lecture about culture.
    A part of it is the great military ceremony to leave-taking in germany (“Großer Zapfenstreich”) by President or Federal Chancellor. March 2011 was these ceremony of honour from minister of defence Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg. You know, his wish was Your song “Smoke On The Water”. And the band of military play that.
    My question is: what do you think about that?
    I’m a fan of Deep Purple since the end of the sixty years and I think the band is pacifistic, I hope so.
    I would appreciate if you could send my a short reply, that I could cite in my leccture. Or another member from the band answer me.
    Thank you very much! With kind regards
    Christoph Kuhn

    Roger, I have a picture of you off the internet where you are playing what appears to be an Ibanez SDGR SR 1000 EV/N 4-string. If I could include the photo I would. Is that the guitar?

    roger, unfortunately it was the passing of Lemmy Kilmister that lead me here (via youtube). just like to thank you (and the Lads) for all the endless hours of entertainment over the years, my very 1st live music experience was in Melbourne 1984 on the 2nd night (awesome show) Cheers

    Hi Roger,
    Wishing you a happy 70th on the 30th Nov. – looking forward to the o2 show in Dec. – just wondered whether the band would be including ” Above and Beyond ” in the set, as I’m sure many British fans won’t have heard the song ” live ” unless they attended the Albert Hall show in 2014. It would certainly be a fitting tribute to a great musician, and the gentle soul that was Jon Lord.

    Back in the 80’s you guys were at Limelight in Chicago,IL. I just wanted to know if you remember partying with me and a few friends? You gave us tickets to Alpine Valley and a show in Chicago and all access passes. My friend said you were really smitten with me!

    Hi Roger

    I know your busy schedule and touring and the possible of new album coming up with the mighty Bob Ezrin(cannot wait),but any chance that one day you might come around for a Remix/Re-Remastered of Perfect Strangers and The House Of Blue Light? I know The Battle Rages on is out of your hands at this point,but there are a lot of fans like me,that one day would love to see you get invlove and make justice to the criminally underrated THHOBL. YOU THE BEST !

    Dear Roger

    During the 1960s and 1970s I collected weekly record charts (surveys) from CHUM Radio 1050 in Toronto, Ontario.

    Now that I am a retired teacher living near Toronto, I am collecting autographs of music stars listed on my charts. Is it possible to mail you chart for your autograph?

    Regards

    hello Tim Weeks
    I would like to report a problem with the website Roger Glover, I use Firefox 16.0.2, and it’s been a while since I am able to see the top of the page. I took the test in other browsers (IE, Opera, Chrome) and the problem persisted. I think many people are failing to see the website for this issue, I hope you resolve it.
    Good luck

    Dear Roger, just want to thank you for the song “Beyond Emily”.After 11 years I was let loose by my soulmate, who also was my musical souklmate too. Her name was Victoria (Still Is LOL )I was living in a boarding house with no where to go when I purchased your cd and when I heard Beyond Emily it hurt me , choked me up, but after a while I knew I had to start thinking BEYOND VICTORIA. Thank you for such a great song. I love The Gulty Party project. Hope you’ll tour with it someday. God Bless
