I remember Saxon starting up and they had to crawl to where they are no. I live near to Biff and I was at Bloodstock and the roof came off. Yes know it was open air Saxon was there usual selves 100% buzzin and should have been a headlinr 1 night. Thanks Saxon for a great session. I am a proud 57 yr old metal head and going nack to Bloodstock nesy yeat.
