Deep Purple with Foghat and Joyous Wolf Bring Legendary Classic Rock to Ironstone
Posted by: thepinetree on 09/07/2019 10:08 AM
Murphys, CA...With a body of work spanning seven decades, Deep Purple has helped pioneer and define the hard rock genre whilst progressively moving into new areas to keep their sound fresh and attract new fans to the legions who have remained loyal since the band’s inception. There simply aren’t enough superlatives to properly acknowledge the contribution Deep Purple has made to rock music. Having sold more than 100 million albums and filled global arenas for decades, it’s little wonder respected British radio station Planet Rock named the group the ‘5th Most Influential Band Ever’, whilst VH1 ranked them #22 on its ‘Greatest Artists of Hard Rock’ list. Additionally, Deep Purple was given the ‘Legend Award’ at the 2008 World Music Awards and, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016. These guys truly are ‘rock royalty’
San Andreas, CA...Get your booty on down to the Metropolitan for our monthly karaoke party! Costumes and singing are optional, but fun is required!

We look forward to seeing your hooks, eyepatches, bandanas, and jolly rogers on September 7, 2019.
