OFF: Deep Purple in concert

[Alisa]

> > Saw Deep Purple -- with Scorpions and Dio -- in Pittsburgh on Saturday
night.
> > Awesome show, with the exception of Scorpions. . . but that's just my
taste.
>
> Is Ian still singing Speed King? He can't scream like he did on the LP
> anymore, but that song still blew my mind the last time I saw DP (on the
> Abandon tour with ELP and Dream Theater).
>
> Also, I heard John Lord was retiring. When is that happening?

DP were here this spring without Lord.
