It's as if when reading your posts I draw a blank. lol Figuring out Ian Anderson, now there's a thread. It's an old/new idea with slightly different music using the original instruments.. Too early for me! ;D I hate coffee, pour me some tea. Oh yeah, welcome to the Board, robin. Thanks. Well, it seems to me that he really wants to underline that the music is not just slightly but VERY different, and I wondered why this is. I didn't quite understand what you wanted to say with "now there is a thread" and the tea and coffee and stuff, but nevermind. ;D That's okay Robin, no one else does either! ;D

I had the lyrics the next day after release. Not bad for someone with limited mental abilities........better late than never I suppose. TomTom thinks he knows just where we are.

But that was then and this now, and even though you admit "you are the mean one", I haven't been unkind to you here have I? That post was public service message done in a kind-hearted way. I purposely used the popcorn emoticon since you consider that to symbolize humor. But you have to admit that your posts are rather obscure at times - intentional or not.

Not me, your kidding just now was funny, maybe right. 2012 - I've received a PM here titled with a troll name. The name that they/he wants to attach to me. The sender (step forward?) did not respond. Now I'm being accused of being this troll at SHtv. Let's say I've used you to remind everyone that I've always only posted as tootull/JohnN. That is all. ;D

Ian Anderson at The Hexagon By Linda Fort April 26, 2012 Read more: www.getwokingham.co.uk/entertainment/music/s/2112748_ian_anderson_at_the_hexagonLegendary rock flautist Ian Anderson normally wakes up at about 6am, but the rigours of his present tour means he is sleeping until later. From his hotel room in Sheffield, he said: “I didn’t wake up until 7.30 this morning and I thought, I must be really tired.” Tired or not, a call just an hour later brought forth a stream of erudition from the musician who is currently in the middle of his 19-date Thick as Brick 40th anniversary tour. The concept album was based on a poem written by a fictitious 10-year-old boy poet called Gerald Bostock – really Anderson himself – illustrated by an imaginary local newspaper called the St Cleve Chronicle. Anderson explained that he had been asked to revisit the Thick as Brick album endlessly by “fans, well wishers and people in the music business” and had always dismissed the idea. “I'm simply not interested in nostalgia and repeating the past.” However when the discussion turned to what Gerald Bostock might be doing now, he became intrigued. The result is a new album exploring Gerald’s career and a website – www.stcleve.com – to amuse fans with the goings on in the three fabled parishes of St Cleve, Linwell and Little Cruddock. ...He said: “There are only about 16 bars during the whole performance when I am not actually playing something.” The musical instruments from the first album feature in the second one – but not the musicians. “Three of the original band members just don’t play music any more for various reasons so it was not possible to magic that back again,” he said. However the musicians taking part are those who have toured with Anderson, either with the band Jethro Tull or backing him on his solo tours over the years. He said: “I didn’t want the new album to be a parody of original. I just wouldn’t find that interesting. “And I can only write as Ian Anderson, the musician that I am now, not the Ian Anderson of 1972.” However there is plenty of parody on the website where Anderson has exercised his sense of humour to amuse the fans. But do the fans like the new music? He said: “I don't give a s*** whether anyone likes it or not – that is not why I did it. Of course it is very nice to hear if people do enjoy it.” However, he was quick to point out that the album was currently at number one in the Rock Radio chart in the US.“Whether that translates into sales remains to be seen,” he added. He has no plans to retire – “people in my business usually have to be dragged kicking and screaming from the stage”. And did he enjoy recording the new album? Like the colonoscopy he had last year – “only in retrospect”. Ian Anderson and his band will be at The Hexagon in Reading on Thursday, May 3. Tickets start at £25.50.

Of course it is very nice to hear if people do enjoy it.” I'm sure he does give a shit even if it did it for them or not. Is that true? Is there a Rock Radio chart? That's the problem with digital recordings.

Just a quick question, guys... How does A Change of Horses fit into the concept, lyrically? Not quite sure I get that. Thanks.

And we treasure all, all that we left behind us. No pointed cold and dark regrets. No nameless blame to lay. Resolute, the optimist, I ride fresh horse and spur it on. Four hundred thousand hours have come and gone.
...CONFESSIONAL
Four hundred thousand hours have come and gone. Time for a CONFESSIONAL, on to forgiveness. Fresh start, another day, another life so far away from... real hell, banking, war, organized religion, homelessness... To the hell of suburbia.
...and so it goes...

Has anyone of you managed to create a single MP3 of the piece with seamless transitions? I've tried with various softwares including Audacity and Merge MP3, but there's always still this tiny tiny break between tracks. Any software suggestions?
