loved the evening and that adam wakeman was on the keys
It was a great show by Uriah Heep and Saxon. Good job! Never been to the Temple and I will come back again! All the best!
Great show, Saxon opened and brought the heavy metal. Uriah Heep still has it, played all the songs I wanted to hear, singer and guitarist were spot on, for their ages I did not see any signs of slowing down. The location (Temple Live) was quite unique building, former Masonic Temple.
Saw them last at the Spectum in Philly in 1975. Mick was playing with a cast due to a broken wrist. Apparently against doctors orders! These guys almost 50 years later are a tight group and even better, because they are always on tour. Excellent show!
Went to three shows in Florida and finished up at the May 3rd show in Englewood, NJ. Got to the NJ show late and missed the meet & greet session. The bands were excellent on stage and showed more hospitality that I could have expected. They gave me and my friend Stuart a private meet and greet event between sets. Their new material was also good and no shortage of classic Saxon and Uriah Heep songs. I hope to get in another show before they finish the tour.
I went mostly to see Saxon. When I got there around 8pm Saxon were already on. My seat was up in the balcony. I had a great view of the stage. My seat was comfortable. The view was great. Saxon looked and sounded awesome! They were happy to be performing. The lighting production fit well with the songs. They were loud and heavy. Biff spoke in-between the songs. Brian Tatler from Diamond Head is one of the guitarists. He fit in well with the band. I think they played 3 songs from their new album. Everything else were their classics. I was happy to hear Dallas 1pm. They had one encore. They finished with Wheels of Steel and Princess of the Night. Biff looks better than Halford. Saxon played for about an hour, maybe more. I stayed and watched all of Uriah Heep. I only know one of their songs - Easy Living, which they closed their set with after one encore. The rest of the songs were old and new. The band looked and sounded great. Mick Box and Bernie Shaw led the band. Both spoke in-between songs. The band were energetic and happy to be performing live. Adam Wakeman, Rick Wakeman's son, played keyboards. Their songs kept my attention. I wasn't bored. Uriah Heep ended by 11. It was a good crowd. Bergen PAC is a very nice theater. Bathrooms and concession on both floors. Their was artwork on display on the 2nd floor. Merch was sold on the first floor. Saxon had 3, 4, and 5XL shirts. Uriah Heep also had shirts. I don't recall how large they were. If Saxon had the larger shirts, I get the impresson UH had the same sizes. I picked up a 3XL Saxon shirt with the new album artwork on the front and tour dates and cities/states on the back. I recommend seeing them. Enjoy the show!
I'm only giving Saxon a review they were great great parking freindly staff great sound system
Saxon and Uriah Heep put on a killer show! They brought me right back to the70's!
Both bands were fantastic! Uriah Heep was in top form, stole the show in my opinion. Do not sleep on UH and their new LP.
It’s my fifth time attending Uriah Heep concert… I think this tells how good they are
