Almost Johnny and Edgar winner but they didn't quite make it. Even without them though that was one heck of a concert

      Yes indeed is right Marcia! There are a few Jethro Tull songs that can bring out such raw emotion and obvious is Thick as a Brick..........Live! Of course, Pibroh, Cap in Hand, and Hunting Girl! There are many more, especially early Tull but those three I think top my list. I got to see them 7 times back in the 70's. Nothing compares.

    Ian Anderson is arguably the greatest poet, singer songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist to ever appear before a paying audience, and he has done so over 4k times in over 40 countries. Ian Anderson has written over 90% of the notes and lyrics, he has hired and fired every band member and special guest. Ian Anderson has had final say over every finished product album after album, he has negotiated every record deal, he has signed every contract to go on tour. Ian Anderson has directed every rehearsal and presided over every soundcheck. Ian Anderson writes and performs music with as high a degree of difficulty as anybody ever in the music business and he has done it all while standing on one leg and making it look easy when we all know it isn't.

      I was too and I didn’t want to go because it was so hot and while we always found great seats and enjoyed the acoustics we never expected to actually see it, No one was aware of what was going to happen because we’d never seen a jumbo screen before. It’s so normal now but I still remember the rush when Ian Anderson who looked about 2 inches tall came walking out and we all realized what was happening. I’m so glad we went. It’s still one of the best concerts ever and I was fortunate to have seen many. And finding it on UA-cam was/is awesome!!!

      I saw the 25th anniversary tour and was a bit disappointed. The song I wanted to hear the most was 'Teacher' and I couldn't believe they didn't do it. Ian then fluted 'Cross eyed Mary' instead of singing it and the replacement drummer really screwed up major drum parts of 'Aqualung'. The only real props they had was a clothesline w 4 pieces of clothes on it. This was in Anaheim.
      Very Disappointed 😞.

Now, after seeing only Tampa footage surface, I assume that Tull was taping this performance for later use.

The tickets got harder to get hold of too into the 1980s and beyond as the Band's fan-base grew. They are right up there at the top of the tree when it comes to the quality of their music, musicianship, and live performances.

It was Ian's birthday that day, and he must have been having a mid-life crisis or something. Seemed very tired and unenthused, just sort of speaking the words instead of singing them.

That was when I just fell in love with their music and style. Juste fantastic and amazing live performers.

    I saw the Aqualung Tour Concert in Phoenix in '72 and LOVED it. Tull is one of the few bands who sound as good live as they do on a studio album. When Ian stopped playing his flute to sing, he tossed it up 2 stories, sang the verse, then stuck his hand out behind him to catch the flute and play the next notes, sight unseen. Wow, definite force of nature and showman extraordinaire.
