Hello, me again. Average audience - age 50 to 55. Unfortunately, I fall into that bracket. Mostly ageing male hippies, again like me. Some took their "chicks" along. Mine was quite bored at times, kept asking which one was Jethro Tull! She needs some serious education, man!    


I had to explain that to a woman in her early 60's, at work, the day of the gig. I said 'I'm going to see Jethro Tull tonight' to whcih she replied 'Oh yes, I remember him; the guy with the flute? He was quite good wasn't he'

I said 'No' HE was a sixteenth century farmer who invented the seed drill, THEY are quite good!'
I have to explain this to people all the timeConfused. I've seen Tull on numerous occasions and they're one band that have never dissappointed. As for the voice the way Anderson dealt with it whenhe played at Place Des Arts here in MontrÉal a few years back was to move away from the mike as soon as he felt his voice was going to let him down. But he did it in such a way that it lent effect to what he was singing. It happened three times. Brilliant. Hope to catch them again before he can't tour anymore. One of the very few bands that will get me out to a show these days.
