Where's Winter When You Need It?

Okay, let's be completely honest with you all.

 

Some of you may be enjoying the summer, but I'm not. Having a heart condition and lungs that aren't what they used to be means that the current heatwaves have left me stuggling and feeling absolutely knackered all the time.

 

Even walking to the local shop and back takes a great deal of effort. If I could order everything I needed online and get it delivered within minutes life would be great. But life isn't like that sadly.

 

Bring on winter I say. I wouldn't mind getting snowed in for a few days or so.

What If.....Deep Purple Held a 50th Anniversary Concert? Chapter 2: "Rehearsals and Revelations"

The rehearsals for Deep Purple's 50th-anniversary concert began in earnest in July 2018, at a state-of-the-art facility in London. The excitement was palpable as the band members gathered for the first time in years, each with their own unique experiences and perspectives.

The initial rehearsals were a bit rocky, with some members struggling to adjust to each other's playing styles. Ritchie Blackmore, in particular, had some difficulty meshing with Steve Morse.

"Ritchie is a force to be reckoned with," Morse said in an interview. "He's got a very distinct style, and it's taken some time to get used to. But we've worked out our differences, and it's been a real learning experience for all of us."

What If.....Deep Purple Held a 50th Anniversary Concert? Chapter One: "The Unlikely Dream"

Back in 2018 I posted on social media that it would be great if Deep Purple, my all-time favourite band, got together with their former members and put together a concert to celebrate their 50^th anniversary. Sadly no such event happened.

But as I’ve been playing around with various online AI programs over the past few weeks the idea popped into my head again. Having already written an AI-assisted piece about Hulk Hogan joining Metallica, I began to think about this idea again. I got together with my AI assistant, tossed around a few plot ideas, and came up with this second What If story.

So now I present to you the first chapter of my second What If story: What If…..Deep Purple Held a 50^th Anniversary Concert?
