Not a
gig but almost as expensive in Leicester Square. Captain Kirk bites
the dust and a childhood hero is no more. |

Again
not a gig and I'm certainly not a fan of the film but the stage

A mini-festival
in a carpark at the top of the highlands adverising one a few weeks
later in Glasgow. Strange. Gun were still average but Mike Peters
(ex-The alarm) impressed. |

Not bad
for a pop band. I loved the show - especially when they playes Motorhead's
Ace of Spades but was disappointed when they didn't play my favourite
track. |

A rather
disappointing show - my camera being taken off me as we entered.
Not Zep enough for my taste I'm afraid, not that it was billed as
such. The Black Crowes just bored the pants off me with too much
jamming and too little in the way of decent songs. |

The day
promised to be fun but the torrential rain put pay to that - and
my camera. I did manage to have the photos developed but the camera
had to have its electronics replaced.

The band
are getting on a bit now and so the set was split into two halves.
This was the Roots to Branches tour and I'm still not a fan of the
album.
1st set: 65 minutes, 2nd set 77mins |

A return
to the town I spent my early school years in. A local hotel just
round the corner from my old primary school was the venue and the
band were rather heavier than my normal fare but not too bad. |

Too many
German drinking songs and thoughts of 'it would have been great
if Ronnie was singing' spoilt the night. A long set though and many
rate it as one of the classic Blackmore performances.. |

BLACKMORE’S RAINBOW <2> |
London

Shorter
set and less drinking songs. A seat a few rows from the stage helped
too - but still a less than perfect show. |

Splitting
the set into 3 eras and changing costumes to suit the provided a
great show and cross section of songs. The drummer was closest looking
to the 'real' band. |

Highlight
of the evening for me - confusing for most of the others - was when
they decided to play something a little different - Black Sabbath's
Paranoid. Excellent. |
