ROCK on with a double bill tribute to rock legends, at The Artrix in Bromsgrove.

Needless to say, there will be guitars, long hair and power chords - what else? But who exactly will be celebrated in the line-up?

A spokesman said: “As featured in the BBC TV documentary ‘The Joy of the Guitar Riff’, Purple Zeppelin are proud to pay tribute to the two greatest Rock Bands of all time, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin.

“Whether you were lucky enough to have seen the original bands live or not, Purple Zeppelin promises to take audiences back to the magic, the excitement and the sheer raw energy generated by those incredible musicians.”

The spokesman added: “In a full on two and a half hour show complete with costume changes for each band, Purple Zeppelin will play more than 30 classic songs.

“Purple Zeppelin are four talented and versatile musicians with decades of playing between them, comprising thousands of sessions and gigs both in the UK and overseas, selling out venues up and down the country. The band are genuine admirers of both Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin and with the accent firmly on entertainment, this show promises to be a night not to be missed, complete with Ritchie Blackmore’s on stage antics, Jimmy Page’s twin neck Guitar and Theremin, and a very special Violin Bow Solo!

“Come and experience the excitement of Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin in one mesmerising show!”

They are almost certain to bring an audience to its feet.

As one theatre manager put it: “Nothing can argue with a standing ovation – Purple Zeppelin were truly outstanding. If you closed your eyes you would have thought Led Zeppelin & Deep Purple had reformed and were on tour."

And as another said: "They were great! The audience was on their side from the first chord. They certainly put on a show!”

Tickets for Purple Zeppelin on Friday October 25 at 7.30pm are available at www.artrix.co.uk or 01527 577330.
