jackinthegreen: Hope it's all good btw............... :) Jun 14, 2013 20:58:00 GMT
futureshock: Corporate media operates on one wavelength, so toss them a rawhide chew. Jun 15, 2013 5:52:54 GMT
nonrabbit: I live in Fermanagh Jackinthegreen and we have a few guests coming in the next few days :| Jun 15, 2013 11:09:31 GMT *
nonrabbit: If I won the euromillions I'd buy an island in the Pacific and call it the Isle of Tull Jun 15, 2013 11:12:44 GMT *
jtull07: I'd buy me a yacht and call it the good ship 'Dun Ringill' and sail to the Isle of Tull. Jun 15, 2013 11:51:55 GMT
steelmonkey: I'd buy Tull and pay them to play on the island and the cruise out. I can pitch in a few dollars to reserve a plot in the 'End Game' cemetery. In fact, save me a place at the 'later that same lifetime' old age home. Jun 15, 2013 13:27:21 GMT
jtull07: And who am I to last forever? I'll spend all I can on going to every Tull concert from now till whenever. Banker Bets, Tull Wins! Jun 15, 2013 15:11:29 GMT
elmsliegirl: Please refer to Ye Old Swop Shop re genuine 9 page Ian Anderson letter to girlfriend of the time, circa 1960 something, re the formation of Jethro Tull in Ian Andersons very own words. Being auctioned at Bonhams London in a month or so. Details soon. Jun 15, 2013 19:52:59 GMT
steelmonkey: Good point...enjoy the 'Tullazoic Era' while it lasts......it'll be a sad day when the music stops...but sadder still to shuffle off and die before the last note is recorded, played or extracted from the vaults. Jun 15, 2013 20:08:12 GMT
jtull07: That letter should be a very pretty penny to acquire. I wonder if Ian approves of it's release? Jun 15, 2013 21:31:56 GMT
jtull07: What an interesting weekend. My wife has gone to visit her Dad and left me in charge of everything. What would be a cool video to watch? Perhaps a little "Catfish Rising" from the '91 Tour? Or maybe '89 "Rock Island"? Jun 16, 2013 0:50:39 GMT
nonrabbit: After the housework Jim ;) Jun 16, 2013 15:15:33 GMT
jtull07: Of course. I have finished the dishes. Next the laundry. Then clean the bathroom. Then vacuum. Then walk the dog. Then empty the cat's litter box. Then feed the rabbits. Then...? Jun 16, 2013 17:46:06 GMT
bunkerfan: My Daughter bought me a case of beer containing 12 different bottles of real ale for Father's day. Whoever invented Father's day Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! :) Jun 17, 2013 6:26:33 GMT
elmsliegirl: Just got back from a lovely 'thespian' trip away. Silly, condecending word wouldn't ever use it normally. Pleased to say amongst my post the 'Entertainment Memorabillia' catalogue from Bonhams. So two of my letters from Ian are in there. Jun 17, 2013 18:56:25 GMT
elmsliegirl: Auction Wednesday 3rd of July 2013 Knightsbridge London.View on line. Inspired by one letter, Bonhams print a lovely quote from John Peel re Hyde Park Festival 68. Ian would be dead chuffed. Will find a space here to elucidate. "They played with fire...... Jun 17, 2013 19:06:30 GMT
elmsliegirl: ....and brought out the first rays of sun". Perfect description of those early gigs. So glad to have been part of it. If you want to read about the formation of Jethro Tull in some of Ian's own words it's on page 43. Cheers. More later. Jun 17, 2013 19:17:22 GMT
nonrabbit: What a beautiful and very apt quote Elmsliegirl Thanks for sharing! Jun 18, 2013 8:11:11 GMT
nonrabbit: The sun is shining on Lough Erne and the world's press is here to capture it!! Jun 18, 2013 8:11:57 GMT
elmsliegirl: Actually easier to get to than I thought. Google Bonhams. Entertainment Memorabila Wednesday 3rd July 2013. Find Lot 199 and 200. Letters written by Ian Anderson. Lot 197 and 198 would interest some too. Check it all out. Jun 18, 2013 22:13:39 GMT
