Just got back from the gig in Manchester and while I did enjoy hearing some of the old classics, the show wasn't what I expected at all. It was like some 80's retro show and I couldn't help feeling a little disapointed as I was hoping to hear many more tracks from the last few excellent albums, especially Lion Heart. We only got Man & Machine. Where was "beyond the grave", "Lion Heart", "Killing Ground", "Cut out the disease", "Dogs of war", "Sea of life", "Terminal Velocity". I love the new stuff the band's been doing for the past 10 years! Saxon are a credible current sounding band who have moved on with the times but it didn't feel like it tonight. I was with 3 friends who all felt the same. It was a great gig for the ageing rockers who just wanted to relive their youth for one night but it all seemed a little sad and spinal tap to me. The quality of the bands current material is lightyears ahead of anything off the first album. I'm looking forward to the next studio album and a set that leaves the past where it should stay bar Midus touch, Crusader and 747! IMHO
