Nice to be [virtually] sharing this stuff, and not just letting it sit in boxes in a lock-up gathering dust. It's been good to go down there with camera and record this stuff for you and relive a few memories in the process.

OMG, love the HH picture. Do you have that hanging up? I sure would. As a huge HH fan..

Remember a few yrs ago Dave Pegg was selling his stuff? I inquired about a HH sweater he had and he said he was on vacation and would get back to me (most likely being English he said, "holiday" actually, LOL) but he never got back to me. Grrr. haha

Hi Holly,

No, I don't have it hanging up at present. like most of my stuff it's in storage. We moved a few years ago and have been undertaking renovation works in our house; maybe when it's finished the crates will return and I'll make better use of some of the pieces like the posters.

I've quite a few more things to add yet though and the trip down to the storage room has been fun, digging through years of memories.

It's not quite printed memorabilia, but just for you, here's the sew-on patch that was available during the Heavy Horses tour.

Inside cover of the Princes trust Rock Gala event in July 1982. I will try to add a better scan later.

Another delve into my personal archive, and whether it has none, one or even two fingers, it's a nice piece, which we're happy to share with members and guests alike. ;D

That is a great item, Pat! I always loved the defiance of the Ray Lomas 'up yours' gesture on the front cover. Too Old was the first new Tull album that was released after I had discovered the band six months or so earlier. It was very appealing to a rebellious 15 year-old boy.

Now, is 'Ray Lomas'' clenched fist gesture one of defiance or agreesion, possibly animosity, or does it mean different things in different places.

When I was younger it was used in parts of the UK by some [men - particularly workers on building sites] who accompanied it with a "Phwwoooagh" to draw attention to the fact that a rather attractive and possibly 'available' [in the G---r sense of the word] young lady had walked by.

That's interesting, because I think here it is always used as a defiant gesture, kind of like "up yours" or "go fuck yourself."

I never knew that it was used by construction workers in England as kind of like a "shwinggg" gesture to signify their instant arousal whenever a hottie walked by, however I can definitely see it being used that way, and certainly by construction workers!

BTW, I feel a little foolish for asking, but I've racked my brains and can't for the life of me fill in the blanks to that G---r word you used???

I'll PM you, as my reply might offend - ;D

Well, I suppose it's open to debate, but I've always been under the impression it was Go-er, as in 'she's a bit of a go-er.....'

Yeah, here it's "up yours." Probably in common with Quizz's British usage, it seems to represent the same part of the body, just in a different oriface.

Hi, Rebecca, great to see you here again! This is only one example of the kind of titillating things that you miss when you are away from The Jethro Tull Board for even a single day!

Check out Paul's hysterical "pantians" creation in the 'Avril Lavigne's Vagina and Tull' thread, or the "Jizz-Flutarist" photos in our Tull Art & Photo Department, and then sample some of Blue's hilariously raunchy jokes in Curl Up and Laugh, or maybe a filthy ode or two from the Cat-Tull-us thread, topped off with one of Quizz's topless Tull vixens! There's all that and much, much more.

It won't be long before you're hooked again!

Wear your dreams - Mindblown at the Palace.

Oh how good could this have been if it really happened. Like a lot of stuff that purports to be real, a lot of it in reality, isn't.

This is a spoof, the gig was never a reality but its a nice bit of artwork to own all the same.

It claimed three days of cosmic sounds at Crystal Palace in London for the 1st weekend of july, but the year isn't very clear.

The image is 'borrowed', I think, from a UFO Club poster, possibly painted by Michael English, which I believe was also used by the band 'Tomorrow' in promo posters for one of their singles.

Tull are listed in there amongst, Led Zeppelin, Zappa, Pink Floyd, The Who, Bowie, T.Rex, Free, Jeff Beck, Genesis, Fleetwood Mac, The Moody Blues, Traffic, The Kinks, Hawkwind and more.

That is an amazing piece! The Island would have sunk under the weight of all those egos concentrated in one spot but everybody in the audience would have died happy.

Thanks Blue,

The photograph doesn't do it justice actually, it is heavily coloured silver and looks pretty good despite its somewhat dubious origins, and at least it'll stay up on display here for others to enjoy unless I remove it, nothing quite so irritating as displaying stuff for others to enjoy that disappears over time.

If only a gig of that scale could have happened in London back then, although, I can remember doing gigs back then when the line-ups were pretty special. The Who and The Faces sharing top billing with 8 or 9 other bands all for the princely sum of £1.25 at the Bangla Desh concert at the Oval cricket ground in '71, even in the 80's the Live Aid gig was nice and reasonably cheap at £5.00 [with £20 donation!]
