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

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![](/images//smilies/shocked.gif) . and yes I am the same one.![](/images//smilies/tongue.gif)

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.
