Alexander
was drafted in for two weeks of intense rehearsals then the band hit the road.
Probably
not the happiest of tours, there was the inevitable friction with various band
members. Jessie Haynes quit straight after the last show and Blackmore implied
there would be a few changes before they toured again.
At
some of the shows support band Des Geyers Schwarzer Haufen would join the band
on stage for 'March The Heroes Home', 'Renaissance Faire' & occasionally one
or two other songs.
Below
are all the dates known from this period.
If
a show, in part or full has been released on one or more bootlegs these are
listed in yellow.
All
interesting facts and anecdotes are in italics.

you see any errors or omissions please contact
