Get Ready to Rock: Ritchie Blackmore Tribute Concert RAINBOW Returns by Popular Demand
It has been decided that the second tribute concert will be held for guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, who is famous all over the world as a founding member of the legendary hard rock band DEEP PURPLE and is also wildly popular in Japan. .
The first event, held in February of this year, was a two-part show of songs from the DEEP PURPLE and RAINBOW eras, but it received a great response immediately after the event ended, and we decided to hold a second event. There were many voices of desire.
This time, the second edition is “RAINBOW edition”. While focusing on recreating the legendary lineup that included Ronnie James Dio, who was hailed as the strongest vocalist in the history of hard rock, and Cozy Powell, who reigned as the one and only drum hero, we will also be focusing on the Graham Bonnet era, We will also include famous songs from the Joe Lynn Turner era, allowing you to fully enjoy the charm of RAINBOW, which was Ritchie Blackmore’s ideal band.
Continuing from last time, heavy metal/hard rock magazine BURRN! (Burn) editor-in-chief Kazuo Hirose produced the entire story. In addition to the strongest team of Akira Kajiyama and Takenori Shimoyama, Daitsugu Honma, Toshiro Nagakawa, and Jun HasegawaThis time as well, we have achieved a unique lineup in which the two sides stand together. Mr. Hirose has had the most face-to-face interviews with Ritchie Blackmore than any other Japanese person, and has earned tremendous trust from him, so there is no doubt that he will be able to create content that all fans will be satisfied with.
In order to experience that excitement again, we would like you to experience this dream feast with your own eyes!
