Demon's Eye - The Golden Years of Deep Purple — Reithalle Rastatt, Rastatt
Description was written before the event

Demon's Eye are regarded as Europe's leading Deep Purple tribute band and have been repeatedly praised by original members including Ian Paice and the late Jon Lord for their interpretations. On their "THE GOLDEN YEARS OF DEEP PURPLE" tour, they bring the band's iconic 1970s phase back to the stage.

In 2026, the lineup features two new members: vocalist Jan Dickmann and bassist Rio Wolfhart. The latter has already earned recognition from Deep Purple bassist Roger Glover, who after viewing a video called him an "excellent choice". Founding member and drummer Andree Schneider says: "These are the best Demon's Eye of all time! We've never been closer to the original!"

The setlist repertoire includes classics such as "Highway Star", "Black Night", "Child In Time", "Burn", "Mistreated", "Strange Kind Of Woman" and "Smoke On The Water" - complemented by improvisations and surprises that are a permanent fixture of every show.
