Jethro Tull

Just like to say that I attended the opening concert of Tull's (apostrphe?), UK tour.
Words cannot express how good it was. For anyone who remembers the 'old (Aqualung) Tull' I strongly advise you to try and see this.
The man is a genius and the sound reproduction at Perth concert hall was superb.

Oh dear....!!! I'm having a senior moment

Classics that make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up......Oooppps an unintentional Tull reference

I came to them late, but always loved "Crest of a Knave". Fantastic lyrics, with a hint of Knopfler from the guitar sound.
Cheers

Too old to rock and roll, too young to die.

Now there's a blast from the past, and all written about a guy called Ray Lomas, Triumph motor bikes, stealing taxis, quize shows, all good stuff. And the tunes aren't bad either. With my best regards to you all, Ray Lomas. and yes I am the same one.

And I used to work for them as lighting designer. I have lost count of the number of shows I did for them between 84 and 2002!

Saw them a couple of years ago in Wolves.

Huge variety in ages attending and they put on a good show.

The "Stand Up" album (1969) and Skating Away (a Christian song oddly enough) are my favourites.

I prefer them in their pagan-folk genre.

Cheers,

Neil.

Random info - there's a Jethro Tull cafe in Dunedin New Zealand (South island) where eveything on the menu is named after a Jethro Tull song.

Had lunch there once but i can't remember what i had.
