For their stand-alone dates, Saxon will revisit some of the clubs they performed in 1979 and 1980 with headline shows at Northampton, Roadmenders (18th Nov), Preston, 53 Degrees (23rd Nov) and Buckley Tivoli 24th Nov.

Some footage from the events will be used for an upcoming documentary, which will also include filming from July shows at Holmfirth Picturedome and the Steelhouse Festival.

The European dates will take Saxon to Luxembourg (10th November), Leeuwarden in Holland (4th December) and Malmo, Sweden (7th December).

"We're looking forward to being out with our mates Motorhead again – it's always great for the fans when the two bands get together", says Biff Byford.
