Jethro Tull resturant closed down.

   I don't know if many of you are aware that in Dunedin where I live there was a resturant called Tulls, dedicated to JTull, with meals such as bungle in the jungle, flutes etc. I got a text this morning from my sister that sadly said that its owner had a stroke and has passed away and the store was closed down. Very sad he was a nice guy and the resturant was a great place for both health freaks and prog fans alike. I am sure if any of you would visit NZ in the future you would go to Dunedin and go to the resturant Tulls, it is a real shame. It had a giant picture of I. Anderson on the wall, and meals named after their songs.

	Now that you told me, I would have really liked to go RIP to the genius who thought about that
	RIP in bossa nova heaven.

	I did mention it once on a thread, I would of again, but you can't predict someones death right? I was planning on going again, it had such great atmosphere. Sorry guys that I didn't make a thread on it earlier.

	Yep and prog fans, he had music magazines there to read, he also played some Mike and the Mechanics; because of that I'm sure he knew his Genesis as well.

	That sounds like a cool place. Hope the owner's family fares well.
