For those of you lucky enough to have seen him this weekend you know how great it was to see Glenn. The Highline Ballroom show though a little short with the curfew did not stop Glenn from having a good time. The show last night was even better, smaller crowd, longer set and close up and personal. You could not have asked for anything better unless it had been a Friday night and you didn't have to go to work today.....Keep on rockin Glenn and thanks for the shows.....hope to see you soon

I didn't get to the Highline but was at the Varvatos concert and can describe it with one word AMAZING! First time I've gotten to see Glenn and it was one of the best concerts I have been to for any price. It was energetic and fresh the band was fantastic (I especially enjoyed Steve Stephens drumming). I'm a lover of all things Purple even Blackmore's Night. It took me almost ten years to finally check them out and found that performance also very entertaining. The last time I saw Purple on the neverending Rapture tour in NY at Radio City I hate to say was somewhat boring. While it was good it was the same old, same old seemingly going thru the motions but Glenn really rocked and funked out last night the boy unlike many of his contemporary '20 somethings' as he reffered to himself still has a great set of pipes. Plus I really like the mix of styles on his recent albums.

Oh and he says he's coming back next year! WOO HOO!!!
