Saxon

Awesome! Also Gammacide, cult death/thrash from Texas, is reforming for this festival! My younger brother is almost for certain coming as well. I’m eagerly awaiting any details on what “special The Eagle Has Landed set” means. I really hope it doesn’t imply that it’s going to be the same setlist from that live album.

It was announced that Saxon is going to be closing the festival out so I assume they’re going to be getting 90+ minutes of stage time.

Mind you, there are several "The Eagle has Landed" live albums these days, not just the original one

How do you all feel about recycled riffs? Many bands are guilty of this, using common riffs or chords. But what about when you are copying yourself? Is it okay to rip yourself off so blatantly? I noticed these two Saxon songs from their two most recent albums and had to lol a bit:

Personally, I prefer Living on the Limit.

Supported in the UK by Dirkschneider playing Balls to the Wall in its entirety. That is a show I am seriously considering going to.
