	Just recently saw Jethro Tull for the first time in Melbourne, Australia and I have to say that I was extremely impressed. Being a huge fan for most of my life it was just another one of those bands that I wanted to see but never thought I'd have the chance considering I was born in 1981 and lived in Perth, the most isolated city on Earth, to which no band ever visits. So when I heard JT were touring Oz there was no way I'd be missing it. 5 hour flight there for three nights to see JT with my dad. They played a two hour set with a 5 min break. there was a good selection of mainly their early releases all was pre-too old to rock... The aqualung album featured heavily with nearly the whole album being played throughout the set. A 10-15 min Thick as a Brick was played and I must say that it was flawless. Ian delighted us with some of his solo work as did Martin (Martins solo song was a real highlight). Overall I was glad I forked out airfare, accomidation and all the other costs to see JT because for a bunch of 'old' guys they rocked harder than many of the bands of today, they could take a leaf out of JT's book. If you get a chance to see them and you never have it would be worth your while.
