Seeing Nick Cave tomorrow so homeworking his latest, an album credited to him and Warren Ellis that is pretty much latest in series of great albums strongly aided by Ellis. How do I sneak backstage and show him my Tull tattoo ? I missed my chance many years ago...he was a neighbor in berlin (1980 about) no one knew he was a musician nor famous, we just thought he was an odd guy who tried too hard to dress and look like Brian Ferry but a bit too druggy and disheveled to succeed. I woulda never guessed he was a Tull fan.

Jethro Tull and Marillion's new album 'An Hour Before It's Dark' for me today. It's the time of year when, "I saw some grass growing through the pavement, today" rings true. Not only that, but the entire album just smells of the scent of freshly mown hay. Thankfully, the neighbors across the way are Tull fans from the early 70's as they graduated high school in 1971. They don't 'seem' to mind my blasting this music while I'm doing the yardwork.

I have had several trees come down the past few years and have been trying slowly to reforest the property. I recently purchased Rowan Tree (European Mountain Ash) seeds. The inspiration being, of course, Jack in the Green. We already have three beautiful holly trees that are about thirty years old. Two giant oak trees are near the end of their lives and need to be taken down in the next couple weeks. I will be planting a new oak sapling in their place.
Now, if only I could learn how to post my photos on this board, but I'm not good with that sort of thing. But, my barn needs to come down, as well. The weathercock that sits atop of it, has been giving us direction, the best of good will for several decades. It didn't simply reflect changes in the pattern of the sky! On the contrary! It has bravely faced up to the fright on many a winter's night, keeping the snowflakes at bay. Why, just three days ago, we had six inches of snow, and when I looked up at him, I could swear I saw a twinkle in his eye!!
When the barn comes down, I'm going to cry, because of the personification that I have felt over the years towards this thing. To the neighbors, it's just a weather vane. To us, it's a friend.
Here's to better days, dear weathercock, we can share with you. I will erect a new barn and you will sit atop it. That is my promise. Until then, we toast you in penny cheer. Cheers!

Oh! What am I listening to? Right! I was a bit off-topic wasn't I.

There's a big silver plane rising up into the sky..."

Jim has the right to like whatever he likes... Why call him a fake? It seems to me that you have a serious problem... (That doesn't mean that I dont like you... but I sure dont like this attack on Jim.) I may not like you tomorrow though... If this continues... To me Jim is a very special person... Stop right now!

It happens automatically MD, as soon as a post is made it is liked, so not read, that's what I find is fake, it's a setting that needs switched off is what it looks like to me..

Since becoming a member here in 2013, I LIKE 99.99% of everything. Of course there are other GROOPS and BOREDS that are certainly available to anyone that wants to live in a NEGATIVE WORLD. I prefer to stay POSITIVE especially during these difficult times.

There is no setting/mechanism with Proboards that automatically "likes" a post; it has to be done manually by a logged on member clicking the like button.

Reminds me of that part in Bursting Out between songs when Ian goes, "I LIKE YOU!" That being said...guess what I'm listening to? "...And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it I li-li-like it, li-li-like Here we go, Rockin' All Over The World!" Status Quo rules.

OK MD....you're the boss and I respect that. My stupid post was not an attack on JTull007, Jim, but on his "profile", as such, something I thought he had set up to "like" all posts, which I didn't like. You say that is not an option on the forum and so I regret my post and so apologise for it. It is not the first time I have posted something stupid and probably won't be the last, I try to be a part of the forum and for most of the time I try to join in and contribute. Sorry for rocking the boat MD

JTull007....sorry for the mis-understanding, I thought you had something automatic set up to "like" all posts, as every post from dawn till dusk instantly it seems appears with your "like" on it....MD tells me this is not an option on the forum, so I apologise for accusing you of that....how you manage to like all the posts as you do amazes me though, you must be on the forum 24/7, which you maybe are as I am well aware of the massive Tull fan that you are, please keep on loving Jethro Tull

Somedays I have more flexibility to respond to more posts than others. When I do research on each performance it becomes even more difficult. My main reason for being here is to express my joy of TULL in all it's forms.
For many years people have argued over the name TULL TULL LIVES !!!

If I don't like someone, that doesn't mean it will go on forever... It mostly don't... Well Putin is an exception... A person have to be extremely evil in order for that to happen... Jim is a very positive person, and I admire him for that... I take my hat off for that... Thank you for this post, Jackinthegreen... I take my hat off for you too... May you be happy! May you never be sad! I salute you...

The outside world thinks we follow a guy who, according to public perception, "only has one song, and there isn't even a flute in it!" or "every song of his sounds the same". Let's act like a family, people. Someday, Ian's going to leave us and go up to see the Old Man with the white beard up in the sky and we are going to be very very sad. We're going to need each other because the outside world is only going to read about it on page twelve of the newspaper, and not give a darn, "that flute player died yesterday, pet". Beltane's right around the corner. Those of us whose "ancient lines did lay will heed this song that calls them back". We need to be as one. Let the world fight amongst each other. That's not us. We are our own saviours.
