The British heavy metal legends perform all their unforgettable classics, from Denim &#038; Leather and Metalhead to Heavy Metal Thunder and from Princess Of The Night to Crusader, for the 75,000 strong audience of the traditional German gathering.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we first played Wacken, it was a small festival with a small stage in a small field, driven by nothing more than raw enthusiasm, which appealed very much to us!\u201c says Biff Byford, Saxon\u2018s venerable frontman, \u201cit started as fans putting on a festival for fans, and now it\u2018s fair to say that it is to Heavy Metal what the Donington Festival used to be. That was the iconic heavy metal festival of the 80s, and Wacken is the iconic heavy metal festival of \u2018now\u2018. And when the eagle comes down at Wacken, when it opens up over the audience, it is always an electric moment for those there\u201d comments frontman Biff Byford referring to the famous Saxon metal eagle, now a symbol of both Wacken and Saxon\u2019s history.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best ever live metal bands and one of the best ever live metal Festivals come together, in a package sure to satisfy the most demanding fan and the youngest heavy metal follower wanting to get his hands on a piece of the genre\u2019s glorious past.<\/p>\n<p> For a full list of formats see below:<br \/>\n&#8195;<\/p>\n<p>1. 2 CD + 1 DVD Digipack (cat no.
