Hi Forum users, Hope that some of you at least will take the suggestion made by Graham to come along and have a day out with the band at one of our Tull shows.Sounds like a cunning plan.After all, some of the guys in the band can discuss and wax lyrical about Tull past, present and future probably as much as any user on this site...so looking forward to chats with Forum users this Friday in Darlington. Best wishes from all the band...P. X ps...The jury is out on whether Ian's support for Fray Bentos pies has caused the govt to rethink its latest warm pie strategy. Cunning plans are always the best Patrick. It's probably too late to organise something this year (work holidays etc) but next year - who knows?

COLD FLAME perform the music of JETHRO TULL - update Well chaps..Rock Island did indeed have a great time at The Forum Arts Centre in Darlington and took some cracking photos of the band some of which can be seen on the Cold Flame Facebook page. Although she has promised to review the gig and send me the collection of snaps this would appear to be very much a work in progress. Anyway whilst we all await with baited breath...but not before mentioning that a recent low key rock and blues gig we did was watched by none other than our good friend Paul Burgess who Forum users will remember played with Tull in 1982 at the Nostel Priory Festival and then on the Broadsword US tour. As always it was good to see him and have a quick chat. Time now to move on to Cold Flame's next Jethro Tull tribute Show which is happening in several days time. COLD FLAME plus special guests The Wha FRIDAY JULY 13 2012 THE YARDBIRDS CLUB GRIMSBY N.E.LINCSDoors open at 8pm. The five piece Cold Flame will be performing a two hour show comprising of Tull and Ian Anderson electric and acoustic classics from 1968 to the present day together with a number of comical pythonesque sketches - a trademark of Tull shows for many years. Advance Tickets can be obtained at the Yardbirds Rock Club,Church Street, Grimsby DN32 7DD and Replay Record Shop, in Railway Street 01472 351125 or call Robbo on 07771520374 for more ticket infoAnother opportunity to encourage Forum members to spread the word about the band and definitely the Yardbirds gig on the 13th. Whilst so doing as a message to all Forum users, should you suggest any venues for future gigs, we will promise to look at and see what can be arranged. We are currently discussing the merits of playing a Tull tribute again in Leeds after a three year break.Any comments from Forum users who live in the area and might support such a gig please message me or display on this thread.That would be a great help.Ta.Meantime do check out www.coldflame.com Hopefully within the next couple of weeks, we will have updated the Gallery page with lots of new live action shots some of which display Pete looking uncannily like Ian Anderson circa 1973. Be seeing you..P.

Thanks Maddog..
Suggestions for new venues to play for Cold Flame's future Tull shows gratefully received. The idea of Forum users meeting up at a Cold Flame gig is a good idea and who knows before we know where we are, the roads will lead to a new Tull fan Convention harking back to those great days when Conventions came along almost as quickly as a new Tull album.
Meanwhile back at Flame HQ still no news on those eagerly awaited pics from Darlington though you can see a few pics on Peter's [the band's frontman/flautist] facebook page under his moniker partmanpartbeard.
And finally...Dont forget the band will be centre stage this coming Friday July 13th in Grimsby at The Yardbirds Club. Look forward to meeting some Forum users and talking Tull past, present and future.
Cheers..Patrick.

Live at The Yardbirds Club - u tube snippet.As I remain a Luddite with modern technology, perhaps someone else can load this video link on to the forum but for now this is Living in the Past played live in Grimsby last Friday night from side stage. Not the best lighting though in fact the lighting on the night was far better than is captured here. Cheers for now..Patrick ps.If anyone is around Quimper in Brittany next Wednesday for Ian and co. give me a shout as I will be there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bs5M1ZFnYVk

Hi Patrick
Looking at the calibre of venue your guys are currently playing in, you wouldn't go far wrong trying the Huntingdon Hall in Worcester.
Give them a shout at info@worcesterlive.co.uk
I don't have anything to do with them by the way - I just know it as a decent venue!

Thanks Zobstick..I seem to recall we met long ago when Jethro Tull was a highly creative band of five musicians most of whom had beards...ah well time flies...Thanks for the tip re Huntingdon Hall in Worcester. Any suggestions will always be followed up within days and I appreciate the support. Regarding the next few gigs...of course we will try and sort some piccies out and reviews as well though what we don't want to do of course is write our own review..that would not be British. Meanwhile some pics from the band's summer Tull tribute shows are about to appear on the Cold Flame website in a couple of days...see www.coldflame.com Rock Island took most of these new pics and there are also a couple by our good friend Mike Prendergast. As for the review Rock Island promised - well I did remind her several times but I guess the show has now gone out of her head so maybe she will end up reviewing one of the Autumn ones instead.
PR over and out..

Thanks for that nonrabbit - not sure why the link was not working but I hope lots of people check out the pics.Unfortunately they have been minimized and compressed from the originals but it's a fair representation of the tribute part of what Cold Flame do.
If anyone wants to copy any of these pics onto the Forum please feel free. My efforts to understand the technology falls way short of being able to do this myself.
Plans for 2013 Over the last few months, I have received several suggestions from forum users about suitable venues. In every case a detailed email with attachments has been sent off to these venues.In every case bar one, a reply has sadly not been forthcoming. I am pleased to say however that there are already about ten tribute shows lined up for 2013 with every possibility of further concerts being added. Any suggestions, as always, will be followed up straight away. Cheers..Patrick.

Jethro Tull tribute pics and vidsWhere would I be without the good help of Graham aka maddogfagin who has kindly agreed to post some pics from the band's recent forays into Tull land. It is probably also worth mentioning that Cold Flame have two facebook sites which have recently been taken over and revamped by our good friend James P. Always looking to make new friends so do come along and check us out there. As a bonus here is a link to a number of vids some of them brand new of Cold Flame's Tull tribute show.The latest ones are from the Diamond in Nottinghamshire last week. Not the largest attendence we have ever encountered but they enjoyed our efforts nonetheless. Whilst suffering from huge flashy light syndrome and Rob the guitarist feeling a tad under the weather, most of the footage is not too bad to the sympathetic, educated and ageing ear.Please be gentle..it's just a bit of fun after all...Cheers..Patrick.
