We (me and Brita) had a fine time together with Jérôme & Nathalie from France and Beate from Norway. Also met Ian there.

Really a nice expirience to sit down and enjoy Glenns voice and his funny comments between the songs.

After Glenns performance Carl Swann grabbed the microfone and had fun with the rest of the band jamming some songs from Free, Black Crows and Led Zeppelin..

Glenn, JJ, Anders, Matt and Luis started up with a FUNK nuclear explosion last night.

Here is the setlist

*CRAVE
*FUNK
*NEVER SAY NEVER
*OIL ON WATER

Original review in Norwegian by John Johansen

Here is a short version translated by me.
(English is not my strong side..)

Glenn with band:JJ Marsh (gitar), Anders Olinder (keyboard), Matt Goom (trommer).
Venue: Båthusteateret
400 peoples

“I feel so young”. “I know a lot of my colleagues that still keep on playing the old stuff again and again. I don’t want to do that – hope you understand” ever young ex purple base player Glenn Hughes (56) told us from the seen of “Bårthusteatret” when some peoples started to cry ‘Deep Purple, Deep Purple’.

Audience did not get much purple stuff, and thanks a lot for that. Glenn Hughes and his band delivered much better stuff than what purple did, and even if Glenn not delivered a lot of re-circulated heavy hits it became a rock solid evening.

Glenn is singing very impressive and he takes high notes like a teenager, and should as soon as possible take over for Robert Plant in Led Zeppelin as Robert is having a bit problems with high notes J

The concert was varied with ballads, some jazz/rock, heavy rock and a lot of solos. Some tunes Glenn made with Jon Lord and Tommy Bolin, and new things from his new album.

Glenn plays bass so funky that it is probably just his skin colour that prevented him from getting hired in James Browns house band

At the encore Glenn served some purple classics with JJ Marsh impressing on guitar.
After that people went lucky home

Hello from Norway!

We have been blessed with Glenn having gigs here often lately, and now he is doing it again!! I and Brita have got tickets for 2 gigs here in Smuget/Oslo. One of the gigs will be a special acoustic show. We are really looking forward to it!!


I have been lucky to see Glenn several times. (3x Sweden, 2x Holland, 1x Spain and 4x Norway) and it is a blast every time. The best gigs for me is with HTP in Eskilstuna at venue Blå, The long Zoetermeer gig with Chad in Holland 2005.. .and the outdoor gig at Excalibur festival in Spain 2006 ..together with the gig in Oslo at Smuget in 2006.


I am shore that when we meet Glenn, JJ and the rest of the band at Smuget in Oslo in may it will be exciting and a memory for lifetime and I feel lucky to have the chance. I will bring my camera….

Grattis med dagen Jocke!
Du tilfører Glenn rett mye og det varmer mitt hjerte å se deg på scenen. Stay cool and do what you feel like dooing together with our big papa. Gi jernet!

Arild & Brita

Happy holidays to you and your family and also to everyone GH-crazy person here !

This has been a Glenn year for me and my girl, and next year looks realy promising

We saw you at Smuget, at Stange, at Kartfestival (met you) and at Notodden festival - all in Norway. Great!

Thank you for your enthusiasm and music. I play your high quality music every day and it means a lot to me.

All the wery best
from Arild & Brita

Here are some pix also.
Not too good light conditions though.

I got the chance to say hello to Glenn, and had made a CD with a picture of Glenn from Stange, Norway which Glenn signed after the gig

I will hopefully be in Gvarv to see Glenn together with local Norwegian musicians playing Purple stuff. It has got a lot of positive attention in local newspapers that Glenn is doing this.. and I guess it is gonna be a lot of fun.

Wish Glenn and the band all the best in Hell today.
There will be a big crowd and I am shore it will be a blast for everyone

Stormbringer, Might Just take Your Life, Mistreated, Soul Mover, Gettin Tighter, You Keep On Moving. (Encores) Burn and Smoke On the Water!!!

I was wrong in my first posting. I told Steppin' On, but it was off course Soul Mover. Thank you Matt.

Wish you all the best in Hell, [COLOR=black].. hopefully in good weather.
