I received an email from Jan Voorbij at the end of last week - Jan is the webmaster of The Cup Of Wonder website and in part of the email he says "My complete Cup of Wonder site [has] evaporated in thin air. " "The point is that I still receive mails with questions on Tull lyrics every week and people wonder what happened to the Cup." I have suggested to Jan, and he has agreed, that the Cup Of Wonder site is embedded into the Jethro Tull Forum using a link to an archived version, and has its own section within the Forum. By doing this, hopefully, all the hard work and long hours Jan has put into the site will not be lost for Tull fans, both now and in the future. Link #1Link #2

Hi guys! Thanks to Maddogfagin the Cup of Wonder site is online again. He really made my day! Please take notice of this information:
- The first link in the message here above leads you to the archived version of Cup Of Wonder as it was in 2009, just after I completed annotating most of Tull's songs. Every bit of information I posted between 2009 and 2012 has been lost. I quit working on the site after Martin Barre left Jethro Tull. - The second link is of no value, as it leads to a premature version of the Cup as it was in 1999. - All the lyrics and annotations that were added between 1998 and 2009 are accessible, but sometimes the links seem to be dead and you have to find the requested information via Google Site Search or through the options bar at the bottom of most pages. - All audioclips are still there, some images got lost and some links to other Tull sites are dead since they do not exist anymore. - It is impossible to maintain this site, as I have no access to the original files anymore. I used to work on this site directly with the Aptana pogram. I cannot solve this problem. - Please feel free to post any questions here or start discussions on the lyrics. I for one will not be able to take part in them due to my current health situation. - Finally, please remember that this site is not my work alone. It was made possible by dozens of Tull fans from all over the globe who sent in their annotations and comments. They were all credited on the Acknowledgements page.
Stay well and prosper! Jan

This is an honor and a great collaboration. Thanks to Jan and Maddog for overseeing this match made in Tull Heaven. I have always loves the Cup of Wonder Site....even posted a goofy theory or two over the years.

I have always loves the Cup of Wonder Site....even posted a goofy theory or two over the years. An honor would of been someone to host Jan's site instead of using the wayback machine but alas I digress. Thanks Jan it was my pleasure to be one of the few who were involved with you and your friends including your partner who helped you in editing it before it ever went online. Thanks for all your hard work that is now in the hands of memory and broken links. I hope your hanging in there my friend. UnTull later Manic Mike
