Saxon Biff Byford Interview-Talks New Album Thunderbolt, Lemmy & Rainbow

[@13thcentury]

He's right about the audience choosing the songs. At wacken we wanted Crusader, wasn't on the set list. He he literally put the list in his mouth, chewed it up... and played Crusader. Bloody brilliant.

THUNDERBOLT is a MASTERPIECE!!! Saw in Minneapolis front row and will see them front row in Tampa March 3rd 2019 !!!!!!!

Hats off to Biff. One of the great heroes of metal.

Thirty-eight years? I've been listening to this band for thirty-eight f**king years?!!! 1979. "Frozen Rainbow" dropped my jaw and I've never looked back. Can't wait for it, boys. Getting heavier every time I hear you. Much love. Much respect. "Where were YOU in '79, when the dam began to burst?"

[@centaurus5676]

Respect to you! Same here!

[@HUK38]

I knew them back in 1975 as S.O.B. Just after as Saxon. Then the Dam Began to Break with Denam and Leather. Legends Rock on Saxson

Saxon is still kicking that ass! Biff is a machine...he still can sing his ass off.

[@cfx5000]

Fucking loved the mighty Saxon as a kid. I still love their music. Awesome band.

[@Somerset-In-The-Blood]

Looking forward to seeing them in November in the city I live in 🤟

[@smokesletsgo2374]

I had tickets for the Motorhead and Saxon tour in Houston, but it was one of the dates Lemmy had to cancel. However, Saxon was able to scramble and put together a show of their own, and what a show it was! Wow! Small but VERY loud crowd of all Saxon fans in a small room at the Houston HoB. Top five show for me. Saxon played for about 2 hours, must have been 20 songs. Could not ask for more. We got Dogs of War, as well as "I Gotta Rock (to Stay Alive)". The fans were really amped up. Cheering very loudly (as if screaming for encore) for at least the first 30 minutes of the show.

[@centaurus5676]

They have always given value for money and never projected the Rock Star image.....My First Gig was Saxon 1980!

[@idantheman1354]

Wow, great interview. Thanks a million asking about Rainbow. Interesting answer. UFO/Saxon would be a dream gig for sure.
