Robert Plant actually swallowed an electrical-amplifier at the age of 10. That's why he sounds like that.
This is an electrified fairytale

During the Songs From The Wood tour in 1977, Ian Anderson would take the stage and introduce himself as the support act for the evening. He would then tell the audience, "But don't worry, I'm going to begin with one of Jethro's favorite songs, which I'm sure he would sing himself if he were here".

What name did Ian use when introducing himself?




So much music. So little time.

No. But the answer is kinda obvious in it's own peculiar way.  C'mon, try again!

Forget it, you're flogging a dead horse. Time to move on.

Did you know, Roger Waters recorded the bassline for Atom Heart Mother (all 24 minutes) in ONE take!? Pretty amazing huh? You've got to concentrate so ahrd and be really competent to record for that long.

I'm so prog, I clap in 9/8

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to what ought to be another absolutely super show from Jethro Tull.  Meanwhile, my name is Arnold Stirrup and I'm the support act for this evening.  But don't worry, I'm going to play one of Jethro's favorite songs, which I'm sure he would sing himself if he was here.  It's called..."

Ian then proceeds to play Wondering Aloud.

OK, here's another one:

On December 4, 1971, FZ and The Mothers Of Invention were in the middle of a concert at the Casino de Montreux in Geneva, Switzerland, when the building caught fire and burned to the ground. Fortunately, no one was killed.

What famous song was written to chronicle this event? Hint: It was NOT written by FZ.
