Have You Ever Met Saxon?

[Mad Dan McCafferty]

I was wondering how mwny of you guys have got to meet Saxon over the years?

I met them after the Crusader gig at the Apollo Glasgow in 1984. Great gig me & my mate were in the front row of the Stalls. We were first back in after the gig to meet the band, got my programme signed by them all (very overwhelming to a 14 year old!!) Biff signed the front cover with a big black ink pen which to this day has'nt dried!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats a cool story, sadly i have never met Saxon, its near the top of 'my things to do' list and has been forever it seems! Id love to meet 'em.

Id also very much like to meet the singer from Within Temptation

 

[The Man In Black]

Id love to meet Biff and the boys and as I already realised my dream of meeting Rob Halford earlier this year I hope this dream will also come true!!

Wow, lucky you!!
Im impressed. Don't you ever get nervous meeting famous people? When i met a few bands, i was, and it felt a bit surreal.

 

[Mad Dan McCafferty]

The only one I got nervous with was Gene Simmons, he is a rock god after all!!

Why.... are Poison records absorbant at certain times of the month?


Personally "Europe" did the job, and at least before TFC they were pretty damn heavy... I kid ye not!

I could argue that Europes - (1984) Wings of Tomorrow, album and (1983) Europe, in parts are more than a match for the Power and the Glory and even though I'm pissed yet again, I have no regrets about saying this!!!
