Hi, I noticed some mentionings on the forum of some icelandic guy singing "One white duck" and he must have done it well, since some people wrote Ian should use him for future concerts. I can't seem to find anything on this on youtube. Anyone here understand what I am talking about and perhaps could explain a bit more about what THIS WAS? A link to a video would also be nice!
Cheers!

We have it...probably in the 'Ian Anderson 2013 thread'. I'll try find it. The video is excellent..it is from earlier this year when they did a couple 'greatest hits' sets in Iceland, not during the brick shoes...I'll look for it.

Thanks! I liked it, except for O'hara's synth strings in the beginning! Nice voice. Very cool thing of Ian inviting him up on stage. Ian is usually the leader, this guy apperead more like a en equal partner, if that is a good description for a small stunt like this. Olafsson wasn't trying to be flashy or steal the show. He just sang the song with confidence and personality, like he meant it...That's my problem with Ryan,he hits the notes and is a cool actor, but I don't always thinks he sings the songs with all the authority I could hope for. Yeah, he is young, but....;-) Egill Olafson had authority. Not many people could match Ian's stage prescence on the same stage as him. Kind of ...perhaps brave, of Ian letting someone else sing this song up on stage with him. He knows,or should know(!), that he couldn't really sing it better himself. The only Tull member I have seen(on youtube that is) own the stage as much as Ian, and still appear like a teamplayer, was John Glascock. He looked and acted real cool. I hope Ian will do a tour with Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden, and he obviously is a man who has much natural charisma on stage and probably learn Ian a thing or too. If you're too old to learn, then you're too old too rock and roll...Hats off to Ian for trying out stuff like this.
