Without Ritchie Blackmore,Jon Lord,and with Ian Gillans wrecked vocal chords - is it really Deep Purple as we knew them though Rog ?

As we knew them ? Nope. And yes Blackmore did it like nobody else, and Gillan is getting close to 70 so it's all something of a nostalgia trip. But hey better than nothing and still better than a lot of the other stuff around today

. . . AND my tickets were free  :D so I'm going anyway  :y

I went to Aldi last night .. was sorely tempted by a whole bunch of stuff but managed to resist. Picked up a £9.99 in-car iPhone charger, though.

Spent £20 in Lidl the day before on a reel-out compressor hose (not a spring loaded wall mounted one but more like a little reely cable extension)..

I'm worse than a woman in a shoe shop in those places.

Just picked up my torque wrench, looks quite good, so out goes the 40 year old one, which may, just possibly, be out of calibration. ::) For anyone in the Swindon area, Aldi at Stratton still had a dozen or so today. :y
