Title: Whitesnake, Malmsteen etc at Graspop 2008 (videos, pics)
Post by: hunter on June 28, 2008, 01:12:04 PM
Was at Graspop in Belgium, and everyone seemed to play Marshall VMs. Even Yngwie had his 1959s just as fake on stage, the only amps that were plugged in were two Vintage Modern heads. Also Tesla had VMs and JVMs on stage. Whitesnake were no short of extremely amazing. I was blown away by their performance. Aldrich just ripped, Coverdale was pure maturity, sex and perfection!

Here some Vids I made:

I gotta confess, we were all tired from being exposed to the sun & booze for 12 hours and left before Priest...

What a waste ...

However, Whitesnake were that good, nothing could have topped that experience.
