Former DEEP PURPLE/RAINBOW Guitarist RITCHIE BLACKMORE: 'I'm Thinking About Playing Rock Again'


<div>
Former <b>DEEP PURPLE</b> and <b>RAINBOW</b> guitar legend <b>Ritchie Blackmore</b> says that he is contemplating a return to his rock roots for several shows next year.

<b>Blackmore</b>, 70, quit rock and roll in 1997 to form a medieval folk band called <b>BLACKMORE'S NIGHT</b> with then-girlfriend and now-wife <b>Candice Night</b>. Since then, <b>BLACKMORE'S NIGHT</b> has released nine studio albums, with a new CD, <b>"All Our Yesterdays"</b>, due in September.

More likely, Blackmore was thinking about becoming relevant again.

I'm thinking medieval folk music doesn't pave the way for a comfortable retirement.  It doesn't pay what it did back in ye olden days. 

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
