Well I got two tickets although all standing was sold out when I looked. I looked early on and "booked" two seats, went back later to confirm and pay and the only available seats were in a less good position. So I guess it will all be sold out very soon.

I must be lucky to get two tickets on this occassion

Which probably means that a second date will be along soon ?

[Fingers]

Doors 6pm
Kobra 6.30pm - 7.00pm
Saxon 7.20pm - 8.10pm
Judas Priest 8.40pm - 11.00pm (strict curfew)

Best Regards to all of those Saxon fans headed to the Hammersmith Odeon to see Saxon and Judas Priest!!! I wish I was going to be there myself as those
are two of my all time favorite British Heavy Metal bands.
Is the Hammersmith still the same as it was back in the day, circa 1979-81??? I saw some great shows there during those years, AC/DC, Cheap Trick, UFO, Blue Oyster Cult, Ted Nugent, and the benefit show Concerts for Kampuchea. It would be nice to know that nothing has changed as it is such an awesome venue to see a show!!!

Unfortunately I'm not going on Saturday either but to answer your question, the last time I went to Hammy Odeon (2008 I think) it was pretty much the same as it always was I hadn't been for a good while and it was really spooky. Drinking in the bar I felt like I'd gone back in time (apart from the prices that is!!)

I'm going
And its my good ladies debut with Saxon & Priest so she should enjoy a quiet night out !
(She was listening to Country & Western last night !).

Hammersmith Odeon, sorry Appollo is a good venue. Last time I went was to see Deep Purple a couple of years ago.

You never know, she might be able to line dance

And it will ALWAYS be the Hammersmith Odeon, In my head anyway.

Have a great night

it was a hell of a show, saxon and priest tore the place down. 3 rows from the front, loud as hell, hot as hell.
