WHITESNAKE Perform With Former Guitarist ADRIAN VANDENBERG In Tilburg; Fan Filmed Video Available

On August 11th, Whitesnake performed at 013 in Tilburg, The Netherlands and were joined on stage by former guitarist Adrian Vandenberg. Check out fan-filmed video of the band performing “Here I Go Again” and “Still Of The Night” below.

Back in 2014, Radio Metal spoke with Vandenberg about his new band, working with David Coverdale, painting, french cuisine, and more. An excerpt follows:

Q: You were part of the last incarnation of Whitesnake before David Coverdale reformed it in 2002. Were you disappointed to not be part of this reformation? Didn’t Coverdale ask you to be part of it?

Vandenberg: “No, no, David asked me when he started up again which was in 2003 or something, but I couldn’t do it because I had exhibitions planned for my paintings, and those exhibitions are usually planned a year or sometimes a year and a half before and I had signed contracts, so I couldn’t do it and I told him, ‘The time is not right because I have to do these exhibitions, so I can’t do it’. But every time Whitesnake plays in Holland, Germany or Sweden, I get on stage and then we play together and we hug and we spend time together and go out for dinner, so we’re always in touch and we’re definitely gonna do more stuff together sometime in the future. I don’t know, maybe a blues album or whatever, but not now because I want to keep the Moonkings together as long as I can. I would love to play the next ten or fifteen years with Moonkings, you know, this is really my dream band right now. I’m working with my favourite musicians, so that’s fantastic. It may sound like a cliché to you because you probably think everybody says that about their album but for me it’s really true! I get such a kick playing with these guys! I always hated rehearsing with a band, I know it’s necessary but I didn’t like it, I always found it boring, but with these guys I’m really enjoying it because it’s going so well, playing with these guys is so natural, so organic that I’m looking forward to start rehearsing again!”
