'Sup with Sunken Gardens?

Kel brought up a good point in the comments on my last post on Iguana Bay (below).

What's up with Sunken Gardens?

Last I heard, they were no longer going to have concerts there. There was a big hullabaloo about it.

And yet, both Pollstar and KISS list Saxon as playing there in November.

Kel said that Sunken Gardens website lists NO concerts.

According to Saxon's website, they have cancelled or postponed all their tour dates because Biff Byford's house burnt down. They have no listings for November and at the top of their Tour Dates page, it says, "Remember, if it is not listed here, then it is not SAXON playing!"

What's going on with this? Is Saxon playing at Sunken Gardens in November? Does anyone know for sure?

Added note: Kelly dug up a couple of interesting articles on Sunken Gardens mentioning that Sunken Gardens is up for privatization and renovation.

Also, according to the SA Parks & Recreation Dept, Sunken Gardens is still available for concerts. So that clears that up.

But is Saxon playing there?
