Jethro Tull Touring To Celebrate The 40th Anniversary Of Aqualung

Forty years ago a guy was sitting on a park bench eyeing little girls with bad intent. And history was made. Jethro Tull’s Aqualung was released. This year, in celebration, Ian Anderson and company are touring the USA. As you might expect the band will play Aqualung from beginning to end and other Jethro Tull favorites as well. The band will also tour Australia, Ireland and Germany with solo shows in Germany, Spain, Cyprus, Turkey, Brazil,, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Panama, Mexico, Czech Republic, The UK, Sweden, Denmark and Finland. They will then finish with three charity Christmas concerts in UK cathedrals.

I had the good fortune to chat with Anderson about the flute and you can listen to that at gearwire.com.
