^Yeah, The Battle Rages On, I didn't like that one very much...
And Airey did on the first night all the stuff that you said too. Oh, man, how I love Into The Fire!

^Wring that Neck? I don't remember hearing that on Sunday.  Though they did paly Sometimes I feel Like Screaming which was stunning, as well as the amazing solo spot of Contact Lost, if I'm not mistaken.

Also they played The Battle Rages On, which I was shocked for them playing it.  Well the obvious encores, Black Night, Smoke on the Water and Hush were simply stunning.

Also, Don's solo spot, he played Adios Nonino by Astor Piazzolla, simply beautiful. A bit odd the Star Wars theme, which my brother told me he had already done that last year....

It was a great concert for me too. I've already went four times, and none of them disappointed me. One of the biggest surprises is that they played Wring That Neck and Sometimes I Fell Like Screaming (if I'm not mistaken, it was the first time I see them play those songs). My biggest complaint about the show is that the sound wasn't very good (specially in the first 20 minutes), and there was a lot of feedback (acople). In some moments the sound was unnecessarily loud for my taste, but besides that it was a great show, but not their best one I attended to.

I've already went three times, but, man, this is one of the very few bands I have the chance (and really want) to go! I'll be there, definitely.

Saw them in Obras in '97 and it was nothing to write home about.
 
They came to my country a couple of years ago and didn't even bother to go either. To me the once great Deep Purple is now nothing more that a glorified Ian Gillan Band.
 
On the other hand, saw Glenn Hughes here in '99 and '07 and that sounded like real Purple!!!
