Joe Lynn Turner

"The event was a pocket show with 6 songs played live: King of Dreams / Death Alley Driver - then a first round of questions, followed by - Divided / I Surrender - a second round of questions - Street of Dreams / Burn.

Joe answered questions about his career and about vocal techniques, After the event he showed great kindness to the fans who had attended, by posing for photos and signing CDs."

"The show only began at 2:23 a.m. so the correct date was actually August 2nd, whixh happens to be Joe's birthday. (In the middle of the show the audience sang Happy Birthday to him). It was a special concert, with Joe in great form. A few minutes after the end of the show he returned to the stage with some Brazilian musicians:

João Luiz (on vocals from King Bird), Daniel Latorre (keyboards), Paulo Zinner (drums), Fernado Piu (guitar) and his guitarist Beto Peres on bass. ( Latorre, Zinner and Piu are members of the band who backed Graham Bonnet on his recent Brazilian Tour). The improvised band jammed for around 45 minutes. Joe played guitar, performing some solos, including a duel with Fernado Piu.


Set List: Highway Star / King Of Dreams / I Surrender / Blood Red Sky / Stone Cold / Love Conquers All / Devil’s Door / Street of Dreams / Divided / Death Alley Driver / Jealous Lover / Hush / Perfect Strangers. Encore: Burn / Smoke on the Water.

Second encore : Deep Purple medley : Black Night / Lazy. Jimi Hendrix medley : Hey Joe / Purple Haze / Voodoo Chile. Long Live Rock´n Roll / improvisations and guitar duel.
