Ardent British rock fan Dmitry Medvedev got his wish on Tuesday night when the Russian president hosted DEEP PURPLE at his luxurious residence near Moscow, the Kremlin said.
Medvedev, 45, dressed in jeans and a black jacket, drank tea with the rock idols he has followed since he was a young boy, when he listened to the band in his tiny flat in Saint Petersburg, locked behind the iron curtain of the Soviet Union.
