The Performance
Remaining true to their roots for almost 50 years, they entertained the packed arena with their musical skills, incredible guitar and piano riffs, rapport with the appreciative audience and their obvious pleasure at their ability to still enthral their worldwide audiences.
‘Smoke on the Water’
The four chord intro to ‘Smoke on the Water’ raised the excitement bar even higher as arms and voices were raised with the crowd joining in for this all time favourite as it was played to the accompaniment of a video backdrop of news clippings and footage of the 1971 fire at Montreux, which inspired the song, as well as live footage of the audience as they went wild.
