If I'm not mistaken, it is Ritchie's son who is playing guitar for Over The Rainbow.

I found out that i hame art-class on the same day and around the same time. But that's not a big problem. I'll just leave an hour earlier, and the venue is just across the street from where the art-class is Tongue

Here comes my "review":

First of all, the band entered the stage 35-40 minutes late. First, there were lots of preperations and soundchecking going on, and then a "friend of the band" played acousic guitar for 15 minutes.
Then the band finally came and opened with the keyboard intro to "Tarot Woman".
The band sounded a bit tired, and was lacking a bit of energy and spark IMO. And Joe Lynn Turners voice wasn't in top shape. He couldn't reach alot of the high notes, so he had to go up to an even higher scream quite often, which sounded a bit tiring after a while.
Jürgen Blackmore, even if he was the one most of us were most excited about, was the one that took the least place. He was basically playing his parts and a few solos, and that was it.
I don't know who the Keyboard player was. I thought it was gonna be Tony Carey, but it obviously wasn't.
Joe Lynn Turner has really tight leather pants Dead
They rocked, even if they could've rocked alot harder than they did.

They played:
  • Tarot Woman (opener)
  • I Surrender
  • All Night Long
  • Bobby Rondinelli Drum Solo
  • Stargazer
  • Man on the Silver Mountain
  • Guitar Solo
  • Keyboard Solo/Eyes of the World
  • Long Live Rock n Roll (encore)
  • Gates of Babylon (encore)
  • Can't Happen Here (encore)
  • Since You've Been Gone (encore)
And a bunch of other songs i don't remember. Don't remember the order eiter. They played quite a few songs from the Joe Lynn Turner-era that i hadn't heard before.

Gig rating:
StarStarStarStarStarStarStar / 10

I've seen them in Vilnius during the same tour ( without Tony Carey as well). IMO Jurgen try hard, but isn't Ritchie on guitar. All other guys are in good form, especially Joe Lynn Turner. After the show they stayed in hall till the last fan got his picture or autograph.
