Saxon play Ireland

The good news just keeps on coming for metal fans. 48 hours after learning that Def Leppard, Whitesnake, Journey and Tesla are palling up in the O2 on June 12, the denim ‘n’ leather hordes have Mandela Hall, Belfast (April 26) and The Academy, Dublin (27) visits from Saxon to look forward to.
Support comes from legendary Norn Iron rockers Sweet Savage and German Queen of Metal, Doro Pesch.
Tickets for the Dublin gig are on sale now priced €30.
