Do we know who is supporting Purple yet on uk dates? I noticed Govt Mule on some euro dates, would love that!
September 17, 2013 at 2:26 pm |
Not spotted it yet, tickets just say special guests… anyone in the know?
October 14, 2013 at 4:09 pm
The Roundhouse website currently says support ROCKBOX but no idea who they might be.
October 15, 2013 at 10:56 am
Are they the same ‘comedy’ band people have mentioned elsewhere?
September 6, 2013 at 12:50 am |
Roger Glover in the latest Bass Player magazine (a cover story, no less!) said that Purple would be in the US “early next year.”
August 29, 2013 at 9:59 am |
Hope to see DP in Israel soon !
Oleg
August 6, 2013 at 8:28 am |
Well, I’ll see them tonight at the “Lokerse Feesten”, DP start around 23.45 CET. No other Belgian dates planned ? Sad…
August 2, 2013 at 4:25 pm |
Deep Purple on tour… what about Mexico? I’ve seen them twice is Guadalajara and they kicked ass! Great gigs, I’m waiting to see them again. Please confirm if they´re coming to Mexico.
July 19, 2013 at 10:01 pm |
Just a correction for the Bonn info – Nick Fyffe is a former Jamiroquai bass player. By the way, there’s another Jamiroquai connection in the Purple family tree – Don used their axeman on A Light in the Sky and the subsequent European minitour.
July 23, 2013 at 2:33 pm |
Thanks Marcin, the story was corrected – I was getting my Fyffes muddled up (but at least I didn’t suggest he was a banana).
June 15, 2013 at 9:44 am |
I would like to second or third or fourth the motion to come to the U.S!
June 1, 2013 at 7:36 pm |
What happen to US tours?
June 3, 2013 at 9:45 am |
The sub-prime crisis?!
May 22, 2013 at 2:42 am |
USA is way over due… 6 years and counting
May 19, 2013 at 4:54 am |
Rapazes…e o Brasil ?!?!?! Aguardamos vocês….c´mon!!!
May 14, 2013 at 10:08 pm |
Yet again no gig in Newcastle upon Tyne !!!
May 6, 2013 at 1:28 am |
#19 in the U.K. charts Simon – ‘A Simple Song’, ‘Weirdistan’, ‘Out Of Hand’, ‘Above And Beyond’, ‘Uncommon Man’, ‘All The Time In The World’, and the gloriously OTT ‘Vincent Price’ (and ‘Hell To Pay’ as encore) – should I book our flights?!
May 8, 2013 at 8:38 am |
It would be great for them to do a tour based on the newer material. Even if they had to print a disclaimer on the posters and tickets for people who can’t handle anything new. I certainly remember the Purpendicular tour going down well.
May 2, 2013 at 12:11 pm |
We are waiting for Deep Purple to come to Hellas (Greece) on the tour.
Still no plans?
May 1, 2013 at 10:10 pm |
Would Falkland be part of of UK tour or what ? Still, despite local efforts, nothing from management…let me see Cape Horn promoters…damn.
May 2, 2013 at 7:10 am |
I was thinking the band might shake the tin town hall apart but then the place has had louder (just reread the Vulcan raid book!).
May 1, 2013 at 12:54 pm |
Just one (!) song from the new CD – is that it?! Had planned on booking flights/hotel and buying tickets for Manchester but, in my case, set list saturation point has been met/surpassed so, unless there are three or four new songs (inc. the marvelously OTT Vincent Price!). If it’s just the same old, same old, as the Dragons of the Den say, ‘I’m out’!
May 2, 2013 at 7:19 am |
Hopefully the good reaction to the new album will give them some confidence to put more in when the proper tour starts.
April 29, 2013 at 11:11 pm |
We are waiting for deep purple to come to Japan tour.
Still no plan ?
April 30, 2013 at 10:20 am |
Really don’t know John, though aware it’s been a while.
April 25, 2013 at 1:19 am |
Looks like no shows this year for the US
April 24, 2013 at 5:44 am |
When do they come to Tvedestrand??;)
April 7, 2013 at 5:48 am |
When is Deep Purple coming to Kathmandu, Nepal?!
April 8, 2013 at 4:35 pm |
You get me the name of a well-heeled promoter and I’ll pass it on Riana!
April 1, 2013 at 9:03 pm |
I can’t see any Norway dates on this tour. I’m very disappointed.
March 19, 2013 at 6:40 pm |
Once again (third time in 6 years) a pitiful UK tour from an English band. I like lots have followed this band since 1970 but feel very let down again! Come on guys. A proper tour for your oldest, longest running, fans! Please.
May 2, 2013 at 12:02 pm |
I agree Richard. I`ve thought for many years they neglect these home shores. Then its just the same old soul-less exhibition halls. Only those Purpindicular dates have made different venues and they were the best shows since the reunion. Disappointing really because Ian Gillan as a solo artist would play all over the UK at one time. The band has just become a global money-making machine now churning out the same old set-list again and again.
March 17, 2013 at 11:52 pm |
SM!LE chaps!
March 22, 2013 at 1:15 pm |
Only for the super ‘tour edition’ release three months after we’ve all bought this one!

March 22, 2013 at 1:27 pm |
Thanks Christophe, have added this to the schedule. Top venue!
March 13, 2013 at 4:48 am |
Alguie me puede decir si vendrán a tocar a México gracias!!!
March 12, 2013 at 10:32 am |
E prevista una data in Svizzera?
March 9, 2013 at 9:38 pm |
Cuàndo vuelven a Buenos Aires, Argentina ???
March 6, 2013 at 11:42 am |
Show in Holland, Zwolle, IJsselhallen: 19 october 2013
March 5, 2013 at 3:42 pm |
En principio se anunció Buenos Aires para noviembre de 2013 pero aun no se confirmó.
March 1, 2013 at 4:09 pm |
They, hopefully, will add dates to here in the USA. It would be nice! Anyone notice they seem to have stopped touring Japan? I always assumed they did great there.
February 25, 2013 at 1:25 am |
Really enjoyed Auckland gig last night. The boys played most songs from early albums. Some you would not have expected like “No One Came” from Fireball. Great night and ex. to see the guys enjoy themselves doing what they are best at. Thanks guys for the entertainment over many, many years.
February 18, 2013 at 2:27 pm |
Waiting for Tel Aviv date..
February 18, 2013 at 10:01 am |

Gruß aus Kärnten
February 13, 2013 at 12:11 am |

February 5, 2013 at 7:36 pm |
van a venir a tocar Purple a españa?
February 12, 2013 at 9:59 am |
hay conciertos españoles anunciados
February 2, 2013 at 2:46 pm |
Still no USA plans?
February 12, 2013 at 10:07 am |
Nothing we know of, though that doesn’t mean they aren’t working on it.
February 1, 2013 at 11:03 am |
Any news about the rumored Ascoli show? (Italy July 2013)
January 31, 2013 at 2:49 am |
México? Cuándo?
January 30, 2013 at 1:15 am |
Hey guys – thanks for coming to Auckland on my Birthday (24th Feb) it means that I will be seeing you for the 8th time since 1974.
My partner bought the tickets – 9th row center…..
January 24, 2013 at 9:59 pm |
Fantastic the boys are coming back to NZ. Looking forward to the gig. !!!
January 23, 2013 at 7:19 pm |
uk band but again no uk dates!!
January 25, 2013 at 10:04 am |
I’m sure some promoter will step up to the challenge.
January 18, 2013 at 7:59 pm |
If they could come to Romania this year it would be a dream come true for me! It’s been almost 6 years since their last visit
January 17, 2013 at 12:38 am |
In days gone by they surely could have squeezed HK in between Dubai and Auckland. Bloody pensioners…!
January 25, 2013 at 10:06 am |
I fear the days of six shows back to back as in 1970 are long gone Phil. And that’s just as a spectator…
January 15, 2013 at 4:59 pm |
Wanted clarity if Deep Purple are coming to Delhi on 17th Feb?
January 25, 2013 at 10:08 am |
Best check locally Raj, we don’t get all the info here.
January 15, 2013 at 11:26 am |
Purple play 12th of March in Singapore and I guess more dates around that one for far east Asia will follow
January 14, 2013 at 10:03 pm |
There is a gap in Mid March through Mid May. That is enough for a quick US tour or a more extensive UK tour
January 25, 2013 at 10:10 am |
Well spotted that man, and I like the optimistic use of the word ‘extensive’!
January 14, 2013 at 12:23 pm |
the worlds number one tribute band rolls on and on
December 6, 2012 at 1:32 pm |
any info on whether Deep Purple will make any 2013 appearances in the U.S.?
December 6, 2012 at 2:01 pm |
Not yet – but nothing for the UK yet either!
November 20, 2012 at 2:21 pm |
