Deep Purple
Bloody typical. Ian Gillan, Roger Glover and Ian Paice of the original Deep Purple lineup are playing in Dubai on 21st February 2013 on the same night as the Stone Roses gig. I know which one I will be attending.

Both bands will be furious when they find out - doesn't anyone in Dubai realise that the schedules for events like these should be coordinated?
One has a long standing "festival" that the dates will be known - the other is the biggest event promoter in Dubai that has the chance for one of the hottest reunion band tours in years and has probably been chasing them for months and they get offered one date as the band are probably on a tour schedule... Done Events were probably not offered alternative dates or even if they were they may well have still viewed the dates as the best commercially even against the festival... Anyway - I've seen Deep Purple at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2000 so I'll be going baggy that night... |

There is always a lot of date-shuffling when tours are being put together - more likely, each promoter arrogantly thought the 'other' event (even assuming they knew) was a lesser event than their own............. |
Re: Deep Purple
As Ian Paice, Ian Gillan and Roger Glover will be 64yo, 67yo and 68yo respectively in February 2013, I sincerely doubt that they will be able to reproduce anything like their previous heavy rock sound, but you never know.

And will they be able to out-perform their aural doppelgängers at the Marines Bar? They were stonking on Thursday night.
