WHITESNAKE IN CONCERT:
Legendary hard rock outfit Whitesnake has been inspiring serious headbanging for three decades, and they’re still electrifying audiences in 2015 with a refreshed and reloaded lineup for the Purple Tour. Ticket buyers can expect a thrilling experience when legendary frontman David Coverdale holds out the microphone for them to join in on mega hits like “Here I Go Again” and “Is This Love”. Guitarists Joel Hoekstra and Reb Beach back him up with plenty of fire power as they unleash insanely fast licks and pummeling power chords. Meanwhile, drummer Tommy Aldridge and bassist Michael Devin tie it all together with their smooth yet intricate grooves. Fans of classic hard rock showmanship won't want to miss Whitesnake as they continue to let it all hang out on tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Whitesnake was formed in Middlesbrough, England in 1978 by David Cloverdale, a British rocker who had previously fronted pioneering hard rock outfit Deep Purple. The band maintained solid record sales in their native England throughout the early ‘80s with hits like “Fool for Your Loving”, but label executive David Geffen suggested they might attract an American audience with a more commercially accessible sound. Whitesnake responded with their self-titled 1987 album, which contained the hits “Here I Go Again” and “Is This Love”. Both songs received heavy rotation on radio and MTV, eventually pushing album sales to 8 million copies. Though the band remained successful for the remainder of the decade, Coverdale announced an indefinite hiatus for Whitesnake in 1991. After some one-off shows and brief tours in the ‘90s, the band officially reformed in 2002 and went on to release the albums Good to Be Bad (2008) and Forevermore (2011). Coverdale and Whitesnake returned in 2015 with The Purple Album, which treated fans to a retrospective of his illustrious career with covers of some of his best songs from his Deep Purple days.

by Steevo Kneevo on 6/1/19The Paramount - HuntingtonNo energy from the band, no energy from the crowd. Audience only knew the 2 biggest songs, Coverdale doesn't know how to get a crowd going any more.

by Chillman on 5/22/19Turning Stone Resort Casino Event Center - VeronaWhitesnake rocked the Turning Stone Casino right from the opener Bad Boys to the encore, Still Of The Night. In between they managed to play 4 songs of the new album Flesh & Blood which sounded awesome. Was sitting 3rd row dead center so got an up close view. Hard to beat the guitar duo of Reb Beach and Joel Hoekstra. Only negatives were a 45 minute late start to technical difficulties and I would have like a little longer set list since they have many great songs and albums to pick from. Can’t wait to see them again.👍🏼👍🏼🎸🎸

by sljones13 on 5/21/19Turning Stone Resort Casino Event Center - VeronaThe band that David has playing with him is great... led by Reb Beach. I'm too much of a music critic though to be completely gushing here... the new Whitesnake songs were performed great. When they turned back the clock and played a few of the greatest hits, David's vocal range is not quite what it used to be... and when you go there expecting to hear it sound like you remember, you'll be disappointed. I noticed right away that all of the band (except Tommy) had a microphone for vocals and they also relied on "crowd participation" to fill in the gaps where David would normally be blasting away. At 67 years old David was still good but the voice that got him there from the 80s and 90s retired a long time ago... Still glad I got to see them though...
