Dear Michele, Cough splutter..very sorry that I did not notice your post Michele until this evening.Thank you for asking the question and your kind words. It has been much more difficult to organise trips abroad in the last couple of years mainly due to increases in air fares, family and work committments and viable opportunities that make financial sense. I think this must be the same for so many bands these days, even for many of the top bands. If the right offer comes along then of course the band will consider returning to mainland Europe whether that is to play electric or acoustic music.. We have been to your country Italy twice in recent years including performing at a Jethro Tull Convention organised by Ittullians with Mick Abrahams and Clive Bunker in Milan. The band has also played France, Poland and Austria. In June the band will be flying over to Greece to play on the island of Rhodes which we are looking forward to very much.
Thanks again for asking the question and if you know any super rich promoters in Italy then do put in a good word.
Be seeing you...Patrick

www.cold-flame.co.uk/news.htmNews - September 2015
Celebrating thirty one years as a live and studio band in 2015, Cold Flame release a new studio album on Tuesday September 1st. The album entitled 'A Stitch in Time' features brand new extended versions of some of the band's classic original blues and prog folk rock music featuring almost every member within the current band line up.Included on the album are a number of alternative versions of these songs.
'A Stitch in Time' was initially recorded on locations in both Lancashire and Derbyshire and then mixed, edited and mastered at Audio Masterworks Studios in Glossop, Derbyshire by studio engineer Paul Walster during Autumn 2014 and Spring 2015. More recently, the band commissioned Cumbrian artist Sue Llewellyn to come up with a suitable design that embodies some of the lyrics and ideas within the album. The result is a piece entitled 'The Dream'.
Cold Flame will be performing a number of tracks from the new album live during their Autumn touring schedule which begins at the end of August and features appearances at Colne Blues Festival on Saturday August 29 and Stafford Blues Festival on Saturday September 5. For all the latest news on gigs and the new album, check out the band gig guide on this site as well as www.facebook.com/coldflameuk

Whilst understanding that there might be those of you on this forum who turn their noses up at pale imitators do consider this.The only reason that Cold Flame play Tull stuff at all is because, whilst Tull material is extremely challenging music to perform live, its such great timeless music and so much fun to play that the end result makes it all worthwhile...at least on a good night. Additionally any chance to meet up with fellow Tull fans and wax lyrical or critical about Jethro Tull is a real bonus in itself.So do read on and hopefully we will meet some time fairly soon...probably your place...time to dust down those knee boots and bandanas again !!!

Hi Everyone on the Jethro Tull Forum
Here is an open invitation to you all. Whilst many of you folks around Europe and the USA are no doubt looking forward with baited breath and unbridled excitement to the latest Ian Anderson and Martin Barre gigs coming your way soon enough, do please spare a thought for those of us stuck in the UK who wont get the chance this Autumn unless of course you are going to Ian's Christmas Shows.
Yes you've guessed right....this is yet another feeble attempt to encourage fans of Tull music on this Forum to come along and share an evening in the company of Cold Flame. The latest Jethro Tull tribute show as performed by Cold Flame takes place on SATURDAY OCTOBER 15th at THE MAGAZINE music venue in Leicester. Doors open at 8pm and the full five piece band will be performing a two hour plus show featuring classic Tull material alongside some lesser know songs and surprises. The Magazine Club address is on Clyde Street Leicester LE1 2DE
If you cannot make it yourselves, then it would be great if you can pass the info on the gig on to like minded folk. Here are some useful links. The band looks forward to meeting at least a few of you very soon.Tull tshirts and non rabbits optional. Table tennis enthusiasts especially welcome. Discount for current members of the St. Cleve Astronomical Society.

COLD FLAME - 2019 A new studio album and back on the road performing the music of Jethro Tull Hi Tull fans everywhere, Apologies for not keeping tabs on Forum discussions of late but other things have kept me busy. However as the band will be back on the road next month armed with a new studio album that features original music - some of which is heavily influenced by Jethro Tull and given that there are a number of concerts dedicated to the music of Jethro Tull, it is timely and appropriate that I post some news on Cold Flame. COLD FLAME - WAITING FOR GOD[2019]Having completed the acoustic blues/ folk album 'One Man's Wood' in 2016 which did in fact feature some acoustic Tull material, a new electric album from Cold Flame was always going to be the next project. Decision made, the band once more returned to the studio to record a new electric album almost immediately. With prog rock and concept albums enjoying something of a modest revival in recent times, the urge to consider something along similar lines was strong enough to explore the possibility of Cold Flame presenting something in this very genre Entitled 'Waiting for God'. the new project from the band is indeed very much a concept album featuring a merging of progressive rock and electric blues styles exploring a general theme of past memories, present realities and future possibilities. There are fourteen new and original songs on the album which took over two years to complete was recorded at Starring Studios in Littleborough, Lancashire. Eleven of the songs were written by band leader Pat including the epic twelve minute album title, whilst guitarist Rob wrote three additional tunes for this album which added to the overall feel and mood. In essence the album theme revolves around the idea of a person reaching a certain age and finding some free time to escape normal routines, deliberately takes time out to reflect on the world around him/her from past, present and future perspectives asking some pretty basic questions that have no simple answers. Style wise...there is a big Tull influence on several of the songs with flute and electric guitar riffing a-plenty. Waiting for God...features most of the current Cold Flame line up as well as contributions from a couple of other musicians - most notably former band lead guitarist Simon Dowling as well as jazz session musician Phil Steadman on tenor sax and Ian Burke formerly lead guitarist with '80's cult glam rock band ROX , added some guitar parts and vocals on the title track as well as guitar and mandolin on the one acoustic track recorded for the album.Lyrically and to an extent musically, there is rather a sombre downbeat overall feel particularly in those songs that reflect present local and worldwide realities but to balance the mood, there are additional songs featuring a more upbeat and optimistic feel.The front and inside cover artwork was painted by South Wales artist Sue Llewellyn whilst renowned Cumbrian photographer Mike Prince took the back cover shots. The album was mixed and mastered in August 2018 with printing/ duplication completed six weeks later. The album was recorded, mixed and mastered at Starring Studios in Littleborough, Lancashire with sound engineer Neil Scales. Check out Neil's home studio at www.starringstudios.co.uk'Waiting for God' was released as a download on Amazon, ITunes and Apple on Friday February 1st. The album will then be released worldwide as a cd on Friday March 1st. A 'soundbites' taster will be released into the public domain this month on various social media sites.

Thank you to maddogfagin for posting the above poster....and now for some additional news relating to Cold Flame performing the music of Jethro Tull in 2022. Greetings to all on the Forum,As many Tull fans who contribute to the Jethro Tull fan forum will now be aware, Martin Barre has had to cancel several UK dates in June to undergo a minor op that nevertheless will put him out of action for a couple of weeks. One of these dates is Trading Boundaries in Fletching Sussex on Sunday 26 June. Cold Flame were approached by the company running this venue to play this particular date and having checked band availability, accepted the opportunity. The Cold Flame concert at Trading Boundaries on Sunday June 26 will see the five piece band perform many of the classic Jethro Tull songs from across the decades with a particular emphasis on the albums released between 1968 and 1979. With Tull’s fourth studio album ‘Aqualung’ celebrating it’s fiftieth anniversary recently, the band will be performing several songs from this momentous album in their two set performance. For more information on this concert check out the venue's official website www.tradingboundaries.com as well as www.tradingboundaries.com/cold-flame.html Tickets are now on sale with the option of a full dining experience prior to the concert. Phone the venue 01825 790200As a warm up to this event, the band will be headlining a concert at The Queens Head Hotel in Buxton Derbyshire on Friday May 6th which will feature many of the songs from the Tull tribute show planned in June at Trading Boundaries. In October the band will also be performing the music of Jethro Tull on Thursday October 20 at Alexanders Live in Chester. Tickets are now available from the venue box office alexanderslive.com or phone 01244 401402 Best wishes to all and for what it is worth....my own view is that The Zealot Gene is a great album performed and recorded by Jethro Tull. Keep well, stay safe and keep music live.... Patrick Attachments:

Thank you so much High Sheriff for posting the two Cold Flame concerts this Autumn where the five piece band will indeed be performing the music of Jethro Tull in October this year in England. Both shows will be highlighting many of the songs from the Aqualung album as well as other classic Tull material from across the decades. This is very much a new show for 2022 which the band presented at Trading Boundaries in Sussex in the summer. As the audience feedback was so appreciative, we have decided to keep with this new setlist for the Autumn. Tickets are now on sale at both venues for a show that lasts for well over two hours. We hope to see some of the Forum members at one or both of these events. Somehow it won't be the same without you. It is worth pointing out in the interesting times that we live, should anyone suggest other user friendly venues that might be suitable for the band in the UK when playing the music of Jethro Tull, let me know or email info@cold-flame.co.uk For more information on Cold Flame , these gigs and other band activities, go to www.facebook.com/coldflamebluesuk and www.coldflame.com Best wishes to all in the Forum family...Pat and co
