I will do setlist myself for you how about it please. I am sure all you guys and girls out there would love Saxon to do this? :Spin:

just remember that Biffs nearing 60 now, 3 hrs may be a bit much for the old bones!

Oh I dunno - from what I saw on Saturday night, Biff and the boys have more energy and life in them than a lot of people half their age...myself most definitely included!!

 

[Fingers]

Welcome back Sammi, good to see you and Pax Saturday.

I couldn't agree more about the energy of Biff and co I was absolutely cream crackered all day yesterday after the gig Sat.

 

[Sammi951]

Good to see you and your chums again too Fingers, and SaxonMckenz and his chums Can't believe we all recognised each other again - it's been nearly two years since we last met!!

I'm "allowed" on the PC today Fingers - only 'cos Mark has gone to the Wolves gig, so he isn't hogging the PC!

I know what you mean about being worn out after the gig - I was positively "glowing" afterwards!!

 

[Paxoman]

Well funnily enough, at the Wolverhampton gig yesterday Biff said maybe next time they will not have a support band and play for three hours. One and a half hours of new stuff, and one and a half hours of old stuff!

Nice to see you again too, Fingers. And also Saxonmckenz of course. And it was nice meeting up with Peter Day and London boy in Wolves.

Yeah - Paxo is Correcto Mundo!
I have the suspicion Biff and Co keep an eye on the website a little more that we initially thought!
The band were fantastic in Wolves on Monday and, during his chat with the audience, it was obvious that Biff had given all this some thought.
Next tour they are going to do it Rush style! No support act - 2 sets! New stuff then old stuff!
This is a class idea! Promote the new album for the first set and come back on with the old classics for the second! Simple but genius!

Biff said that they will be back over here next February. He mentioned Nottingham, probably because that is local(ish) to Wolverhampton, but I assume there will be other UK dates.

If Biff does read this board, play 'Sea Of Life' you bastard! That is a classy song that deserves to be in the setlist. I know that they have played it live, but only on the odd occasion as far as I know.

 

[Patte]

Yeah, they played Sea of life here in Stockholm on the Metalhead tour. I believe it's even on the Chronicles...

No,Soild ball of rock,Eagle has landed,English Man'o'War, No matter Wulfren great gig Good to see for me alot of younger rockers there enjoying the music i have enjoyed since they started!!! :hotjump: :hotjump: :hotjump:

 

[Paxoman]

Wolverhampton was definitely a top gig. I enjoyed it just as much, if not more than the Astoria gig. I was certainly more knackered after the Wolverhampton gig. At one stage I was praying that they wouldn't do another song you could jump to, because I was exhausted and just wanted a rest for ten minutes!

I haven't done a review of the Wolverhampton gig because I thought Peter Day or nightwar would do one. So I'll leave it to them!
