    A thought about Saxon's North American Tour

    Yeah 6 years for New England, and I think it has been 4 years since there last actual "Appearance" in the states. Remember the fiasco 2 years ago with them scheduling 12 tour dates in the US, then 6, then cancelling the whole tour? WTF! I gave up on Saxon coming back here 4 years ago. There...

    SAXON ANNOUNCES US TOUR SAYS SOURCES

    It is very likely that Saxon will break up before they ever tour the US again. There may be some "incarnation" of Saxon that ends up over here someday, but I seriously doubt the current band will ever be here again. Now I know that's quite cynical, but if they are making money touring Europe...

    Stand up and be counted,America.

    Yeah I have been a Saxon fan since I saw them in Minneapolis in 1985. The show was killer (even though I was a kid!) Didn't see them again until 1998 in Cincinnati on the UTB tour. That tour in '98 completely blew away anything they had done before. Unfortunately, the last 8 years they have...

    Any word on Saxon US tour?

    Only one thing to say, like the last poster said, even Schenker can tour here and hes from Germany and hes broke and he managed to play some dates, so there really shouldn't be an excuse. But I'm glad you can enjoy Saxon there in England 'cause we sure as hell can't get 'em to come here.

    Any word on Saxon US tour?

    They didn't do this with their 1980's and 1990s tours.

    Any word on Saxon US tour?

    Exactly Mercyful Fate, we've been waiting a long time... how about TWO YEARS. They've about given up on trying to come back to the US. How is it harsh when they go all over the world but not the US? They'll go to Fuc*ing France Italy and Switzerland but not the US??? Whatever. I guess UTB...

    Any word on Saxon US tour?

    I have been patient, but it seems like Saxon may be pulling the same shi* they pulled last November. If they were going to reschedule the US tour for May I wish they would have told someone about it by now. This last minute thing is getting old. It's not like I can take 3 days off to drive to...

    More Saxon fans are Arab than American?

    Ok, didn't think so. This isn't another cheap shot at Arabs or at Saxon themselves, it's a comparison of how far the US is from England as compared to going to the U.A.E. for the "Desert Rock Fest." Understandably, Saxon has had some problems drawing people for their US concerts in the...

    Saxon announces everything but US tour???

    Hmmm, that's funny you mention that, I saw them twice between '98-'02, and both times they didn't even appear on stage until 12/12:15 or so. I could do without those midnight shows. I mean at least start at 1030 or something.

    Saxon announces everything but US tour???

    OK it's nice to know that Saxon is going to Dubai, but how about that promised US tour? Any updates on that? Is it March or May guys? I'm sure you must know something. At least tell some of your US fans when you were HOPING to veture on the US tour. The chances are getting slim that it will...

    Best Saxon Album?

    If they'd re-release this one with a decent mastering job, and with the tracks in the original order as on the LP, then this might be my 2nd choice...

    Best Saxon Album?

    I have always been partial to "Innocence," but that was until I heard "Unleash The Beast" and subsequently went to see them on tour in '98 In my opinion, this album blows all their old stuff out of the water (at least musically). I am not saying I dislike any of their old albums, they are...
