Deep Purple are considered to be one of the hardest touring bands in the world.[19] [20] [21] From 1968 until today they continue to tour around the world on all 6 continents. In 2007 they received special award for selling more than 150 000 tickets in France with 40 dates in the country in 2007 alone.[22] In 2007, Purple's Rapture of the Deep Tour were voted #6 concert tour of the year (in all music genres) by Planet Rock listeners.[23].
