Deep Purple in Beirut
The rock ballad masters vowed to play on the Baalbeck Music Festival near Beirut – the capital of Lebanon. Despite of the fact that there is a huge offensive of Izraeli forces from the south.
“There is a moment that begins on stage, when there are no managers, no journalists, no outside distractions—just the band and the audience.
This is the time when there is an unspoken exchange of energy between the fans and us that words can not describe. That makes all the other parts of the job worth it.”
—Ian Gillan – Deep Purple’s Frontman
