Last year Saxon had to cancel some tour dates and vocalist Biff Byford later explained that he needed emergency surgery after an MRI scan revealed he had bowel cancer. “Hi, it’s Biff here from Saxon. I wanna keep you up to date on what’s happening with my health and why we’ve had to cancel some shows.”
“So, yeah, I got sick and, obviously, as you know, I had a heart problem. So this time it wasn’t my heart. I went for an MRI scan on my prostate gland before I went to America a few months ago, which was okay, but they found a shadow, a tumor, a small tumor, which they didn’t know was there. So, that’s why I had to have an operation done really quickly on the 8th of July,” he said last year.
