    Vladimir singing blueberry hill was creepy enough, kept getting Blue Velvet/mafioso images but this is a surprise. Those Ruskies are a strange bunch.

    I was on a business trip in Bangalore (India) when Deep Purple visited: from the puff pieces in the papers, you'd have thought Ganesh rocked the Hammond Organ. :o

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Lucky bastard.....

    Gillan has often remarked in interviews about the significance of child in time to eastern anti-communist movements. Amazing how things have changed within his lifetime.

    Looks like Paicy has spotted a foreign object in the tea leaves.

    Well, even the Russian president is a human being and has his favorite bands. I think it's cool :).
