Re: Rainbow - Prague, Czech - O2 Arena - 20.04.2018
I am going with wife and kid...seated to the left (opposite side to Ritchie, assuming he would stay in his part of the stage...) as the child is young and standing is not the best of options as he would hardly see anything in a sea of much taller people.

Blimey, Desperate Heart, aptly named indeed!
I wouldn't travel even 50 miles to see any of Blackmore's shows, never mind to Prague. He's way to unreliable for any of that stuff. Ok the first ever Rainbow shows in Germany might, only might, have been worth the travel risk, but now...... that's brave of you.
Sadly I remember BN in Workington and in Edinburgh and there have been several others which didn't really go to plan at all, either cut very short or cancelled entirely! The first the punters knew about the cancellation in Edinburgh was at 4:00 on the afternoon of the show, 3.5 hours before it was due to start, totally ridiculous stuff really for a "professional" outfit. Gear was all setup and ready in the Queens hall...... People had travelled from all over the place to be there and they just pulled the show....... why?...... Candice had broken a fingernail, or stubbed her toe, could get her curling tongs to work, or some other crap of a similar nature, it was all just bullsh1t.

Re:
No need to poke and jibe at desparate heart, BSB.
I'm going to Prague show for the same reasons really. Went to all the 2016 shows and while I'm not blind to the errors and imperfections, I had an amazing time (build up to it, friends, drinks atmosphere all help).
Didn't go to 2017 as my wife had 2 babies at once in June. I can't watch the YouTube's, all I do is pick at the errors.
Going to Prague with a friend to drink beer, get away from the women for 24 hours and see a hero playing guitar - and he will play it but no comment on the quality or comparison to hey day.

I am far more tempted to go to Prague to see Rainbow than I ever was to travel 40 minutes to Birmingham. Both myself and my wife would love to visit Prague, the show would just be part of the trip.
An absolutely beautiful city, you will have a fantastic time.

yeah, cheers.
great to have folk here who appreciate the positive, whilst not ignoring the limiations of the current line up. I don't do comparison, to quote DC. It achieves nothing, when JLT joined Rainbow, there were the same comments, a tragic end to a once great band..... a pale imitation of Cozy Ronnie (delete aa appropriate etc) .
as only 3/4 gigs each tour there's been no duds yet, all of a good standard. so with Praque being last date, with lots of time off in between it should be amazing.

Well the limitations are very obvious, but hopefully the gig will be great, but for sure the city the gig is taking place in is beautiful.

Re: Rainbow - Prague, Czech - O2 Arena - 20.04.2018
Got mine too - standing area just in front of the stage. I'm looking forward to it
I also bought a ticket for G3 here in Prague on 20.03 - mainly because Uli-Jon Roth is playing with them. Should be an interesting gig ...
