Deep Purple (cover), Sacramento Halloween Show 2019, Verge Center for the Arts, Sacramento, CA, 04/06/19, Video (Live Concert)

Recorded by: Jim McLain

Jim notes: The Sacramento Halloween Show does not happen any time close to Halloween. It does, however, have some of Sacramento’s best musicians dressing up and playing as their musical heroes. All for fun, this is a one-off performance and these are not regular cover bands. In fact, these aren’t regular bands at all, no more than 2 people from any one band can be in the same act. The theme this year was Colors. Live at Verge Center for the Arts.

There is a website with additional photos of the bands and more information:  https://sachalloween19.blogspot.com

Deep Purple- Toyota Amphitheatre, Wheatland Ca. 9/30/18 Live Audio Master

This was my first time to the Sleep Train/Toyota/etc Amphitheatre. I am usually pretty cynical of big shows like this, but this was great! I love that they don’t charge for marking, and the sound at the venue was excellent. We had lawn seats and it sounded perfect. I didn’t even need earplugs. It really comes through in the recording- sounds pretty damned nice.
Ian Gillan sounded great as well- even though he is SEVENTY THREE years old. Damn, I hope I can be that productive at that age! Haha.
I did not know DP’s material beside the hits but it didn’t matter- very relaxing in the lawn chair on the lawn.

Recorded by: Shayne Stacy
Equipment Used: DPA 4061 mics + Sony M10 digital recorder.
