Great discussion this! Been collecting SAXON bootlegs for about 12 years. It´s just so great to hear the concerts i simply was to young to attend!! Bootlegs are my only chance to know how SAXON sounded for example in 1986....
As far as i know, Biff does not allow people to film the shows, but i heard he allowed a guy to tape some shows in germany 2001! Basicly i´m against PIRACY, the guys who stands at record-fairs and sells pressed boot cd´s and videos are scum. -They only do it for the money. I NEVER download or copy a studio album instead of buying it, that´s piracy i think. But if i see a guy at a concert filming or taping it i just feel great! -They are (most often!) fans who wants to document their favourite band for the next generation!!!!! Like Ian Gillan once told me, "if you buy a ticket to my show, you can tape it, film it, take photo´s. You´ve paid for it. But thoose who sells un-official T-shirts or copy my studio albums, they steel from me, my wife and my childreen, i want to throw acid in their faces!!".
I think theese word says it all.....
If anyone wants to trade some SAXON stuff or just chat about SAXON bootlegs, drop me a line please!
