Argh! I'll never bloody get TAAB2 I ordered it off "CDWOW" and 2 days agos
they sent me an email saying, "Sorry there's a delay. It'll be with you in 6-10 days."
And then yesterday another email, "Sorry we couldn't get stock of the item. Your order has been cancelled." So, I decided to do it the 'ol fashioned way and rang up my local record stores (by local I mean like 40 minutes away. Living in the country has its disadvantages) to see if they had it and none of them did. I should have gone with good 'ol reliable Amazon. Silly me...


Very strange!
I received my CD+DVD from Amazon fairly quickly. In the meantime I (ahem) downloaded an "evaluation" FLAC to listen to, which I converted to mp3 for the car. I don't think I could have waited until the CD arrived from overseas!

So I have sympathy!

Yes friends this confirms are greatest fears.
Ian has spent so much money on the stage production, he can no longer use printed copies for the light and sound technicians.
We are now back in the good old days of writing out the setlist before the show and deciding which songs to play. :P
The main concern is finding enough paper for the tour now. 8-)

That is an important decision to make.
I remember several tours where most of the new material was played in the first set.
This was done for marketing purposes and allowed fans to use their own judgement.
I can only hope that "Aqualung" or "Locomotive Breath" will remain off this setlist.
My desire for fresh Tull has no tolerance of playing to please the crowd.
Remember : If anyone shouts out "Play Aqualung" during a performance,
have security remove them immediately.
At some point there will be an encore. Maybe. ;)

I'm glad about that. It wouldn't feel right to do Aqualung, or any kind of an encore at all, after the concluding stanza of Brick 2. Ian was right to let it sit with that. The two albums together are about 100 minutes, so combined with another few minutes for theatrics, and a twenty minute intermission, that's a good length for a show.

Glad you are back Jeff you where always here!!!

as far as the playing of Aqualung and Locomotive Breath, lets just have a break from them this tour and hear TAAB 1 and TAAB2 and be satisfied with that. I know I will....

Thanks, Charlie, and it's good to see you feeling okay and being so involved here on the Board. I've been going through a difficult stretch lately with some things that are causing me a lot of anxiety, but it will pass. As Winston Churchill once said, "when you are going through hell, keep on going."

Nice photo from tonight's gig courtesy of Neil Carruthers, who says the show is excellent and confirms that as well as The Boy Scout Handbook making an appearance on the backdrop, so does The Boy Scout Manual....A couple of times....... ;D

I'm dying to hear a review of the show. I'm mostly interested in how Ian's vocals handled the gig. Are there many (any) cringe worthy moments? Was a rocking time had by all. Do (does) the mouse police ever sleep?

Not sure why the file I uploaded (a gif) isn't being displayed. ???
