Thought I'd say a quick Hello after finally signing up to this Tull forum.
I used to use message boards like this all the time but saw most of them fade away do to the allure of Face ache.
I'm Ian from Stoke on Trent and my only real claim to any kind of Tull notoriety is that six years ago I uploaded a video of Locomotive Breath to Youtube which has now had nearly 8 million views. Locomotive Breath on Youtube
I haven't seen Tull perform live for nearly 15 years but I have seen Martin B a couple of times recently, so I guess I'm not such an enthusiast as most of you guys. As you'll see from my youtube channel I do have wide ranging tastes in music but Tull have never been far from my chosen music player since they were handed down to me in secondhand Vinyl form from my older brother as I hit my teens and developed a taste for prog rock, as it was called then.
I still love live music and go to as many gigs (large or small) as time and funds permit. I also have an unhealthy obsession with trading (none commercial) shows on DVD and have somewhere in the region of 800 discs of pro shot or audience recordings of all genres of live music, so I may be visiting your trading pages at some point (if anyone still does snail mail trading that is?)
Anyway that's me done for now so go easy on me and if you have any questions or advice to proffer please post below.
Cheers

Hi 007
Thanks for the personalised greeting... much appreciated
Yeah I really love Youtube for sharing and discovering live music, I hate the fact that the app that used to enable me to use it on my Panasonic smart tv has stopped working grrr
You seem quite clued up on manipulating images on the net (as you showed me above) but if there's ever any help I can give you with the Youtube thing, just send me a pm and I'd do my best to help.
As you liked the last Tull video, I thought I'd wade straight in with the other one I have on my site.

Hey Maddog and Bunkerfan
Thanks also for your welcome. Hopefully I will try to post on the other pages of this forum once I find my way around but for now I'm happy to hide in my own thread until I find my feet
I don't know if you'll remember me John but we did exchange some Youtube messages/ emails? a while back, at which time you asked me to sign up here?
"Any thoughts on your recent Martin Barre gigs?"
I do have some crappy video shot on my phone, which I never thought worthy of uploading but as people here are enthusiasts, maybe I should get something on Youtube to show how Martin's band, reworked some JT classics.

I tend to be a slow learner at times. Many things I do are just image association with ideas. I never Photoshop or try to add anything but I can crop and enhance with contrast and brightness. My fascination with TULL and things that happen here are a real joy for me. I will send a pm soon. Also I tend to collect lots of memorabilia @ record shows or any place I happen to be...
