On Feb. 27, 1928, the Stanley Theater — later renamed the Benedum Center for the Performing Arts — opened in Downtown Pittsburgh. The massive movie house was dubbed “Pittsburgh’s Palace of Amusement,” where guests could stay all day for 65 cents (reduced to a quarter for those arriving before noon). After decades as a mixed-use performance space and a stretch as the city’s most storied venue for rock concerts, the facility reopened in 1987, painstakingly brought back to its original grandeur; the restoration of the theater was the first major project of the then-new Pittsburgh Cultural Trust. It’s among the 10 largest theater stages in the country. 240 The number of performances in an average year.

It was poorly attended; possibly only a few thousand. The event had Hells Angels as security which made for an intimidating atmosphere; all the bands struggled to raise the enthusiasm of the crowd that day.

Saxon were the best band of the day. I remember my friends and I tore our tickets up into small pieces so that we could throw it in the air when the band came on. I remember Biff cracking a ironic remark about the crowd’s seemingly lacking disappointment at the announcement of their last song of the set [Source: UK Rock Festivals].

  1. This is Awesome ! I saw Saxon twice in 1983 while stationed in Germany.First in Mainz and later in Kaiserslautern.I am interested in the availability of merchandise,photos and recordings.Thank you William

    1. Hi William,
      Thanks for the positive comments on this site!
      I am happy to hear you like it.
      The information on this site is the only thing we have so far.
      It is good to inform you that we are not a commercial site.
      We don’t sell things and don’t trade bootlegs.
      I also don’t have this recording you ask for.
      The list with recordings is based on 8 different resources.
      If you like to add other missing things, just let us know.
      I do hope that you will find what you are looking for.
      Kind regards

  2. Have a correction for you, March 6, Gusman Hall is in Miami, FL was there as I still have my stub from the show.

  3. I have another tour date in 1982. I saw Saxon as the opening band for Molly Hatchet on March 5, 1982 at the Lake Charles Civic Center in Lake Charles, LA, US. In. your format:

    1982, Mar 5: Lake Charles Civic Center, Lake Charles, LA, USA (with Molly Hatchet)

    I don’t have a set list but I do have a ticket stub.

  4. For your entry:
    1982, July 30: Rapid Parish Coliseum, Alexandria, La, USA (with Cheap Trick)

    Did Saxon play this concert ?

    No, they did not play this concert. I was at the concert. The opening bands were Axe and Aldo Nova group. The ticket stub that I have reflects this as well. The entry should read:

    Saxon didn’t play this concert
