We need a Palace Theatre reunion! Oh yes, I'm sure the staff missed us! haha Hope we see more of you around here! A few of us are meeting for the Boston show this year, we were hoping TM and everyone could meet us for it but it is a busy weekend for a lot of people. Will be fun to get this show from everyone and all their points of views. My story from this night is somewhere around here. Dan has been quiet though.... Jen will come on and she'll be all, "So then I was just waiting in the rain and I was like, screw this, I'm not waiting in the rain, so I took off" |

So let's get to it: The ShowThis was the Aqualung tour which meant it wasn't your typical Best-of show. All the songs on Aqualung were interspersed throughout the evening. The band sounded great and Ian vocals were the best I've heard in many years. As I recall, the only thing was missing that night was a light show. But even without it it was very enjoyable. Another change with this show was that members were set up front close to the audience for the opening set which was acoustic - including Doane with a small electronic drum kit. Doane was given the ortunity to introduce We Five Kings, mentioning how the song was similar to LITP as it's in 5/4 time. Ironically there were 5 members of the band, and his drumset had 5 tom-toms, and he continued on about the number five, only to get cut-off by Ian sharply stating "he had "5 fucking seconds to get back to his drum kit"! Some highlights of the acoustic set was Up To Me, having never heard that one live. Another was Dun Ringill which featured just the two longtime members - Ian on acoustic and Martin on mando. Intermission was enjoyed with the pouring of beverages  This show took place during the time Ian was having some hearing trouble, so despite the 2nd half designed to make our ears bleed, the reduced volume resulted in reduced dynamics. The highlight song of the evening was hearing the new version of Hymn 43 with it's jig-inspired intro that morphs into one of Tull's best rockers. At the start of the encore, someone (who shall remain nameless) attempted to get us closer to the stage. But good security prevailed (again) so we rocked out at our seats to LITP to end the show. Martin, being the kind man that he is spotted Dan's daughter in the front row and sent her home with his guitar pick. Ian on the other hand was extremely pissed off at someone in the audience. Instead of waving goodbye, he was focused on this guy and appeared ready to challenge the guy to a fight. Sad to see Ian like that at the end after such a great performance.
Up next...back stage, coffee and the bananas As the house lights go on, Mothfairy tells me she's been invited back stage by the keyboard player. I could sense she was looking for me to escort her so I made it my mission to see that she got back stage. Never once had I imagined myself indulging in the celebrity of rock royalty backstage but then I suddenly saw this vision of Ian and Martin laughing across the room - and I began to approach them. I began running as fast as I could. Fortunately, I was wearing my Italian cap toe oxfords. Sophisticated yet different; nothing to make a huge fuss about. Rich dark brown calfskin leather. Matching leather vent. All was right in the world. We made our way over to the guest entrance and were greeted by none other than IA solo drummer James Duncan. Mothfairy asks if she could speak to James privately and he agrees. They talk for maybe 30 seconds, and then James hands her a backstage pass. He then approaches me and with a look of disdain he hands me a pass that is wrinkled and torn - and invites me in.... |

Someone that may take a slightly more casual approach to his footwear (and life) as opposed to "bald headed son of a bitch bastard with Italian cap toe oxfords in rich dark brown calfskin leather........and matching leather vent. (also Im imagining you cradling your grande half-caf double espresso with skim milk as you run.....) I can hear the pass crumpling! ROTF |

Exactly, AG himself. He says it's "protocol" that he take Mothfairy to one particular area and Tennis Shoes will lead me to where the "real" fun is. Mothfairy seemed happy with the arrangement so who was I to question them? So off they went. Next thing I know I'm being led downstairs to the basement and instructed to wait in this small kitchenette area. I was told not to make myself too comfortable by Tennis Shoes because "I wouldn't be permitted inside the building very long!" So there I was, left alone with a pot of coffee, some coffeemate, and some bruised bananas.  As I indulged on the old fruit sipping my coffee I pondered the possibility of this being some sort of prank, but new deep down no one could be this cruel. Suddenly I hear someone running down the hall....  It was Mothfairy. "TM, it's time to go!" she yelled. So that was it? I get a (crumbled) back stage pass, a cup of coffee and a rotten banana? What the hell is that shit? Who gets to go back stage and meet....no one! And here's the kicker. I exit the building only to find Fingas and friends over at the stage door laughing it up with Martin, Andy, and Jonathon..... Enjoy your time in Boston with the She-devil. |

Ok, so perhaps I embellished a bit here and there, but the truth is Kenny and I ended up with the bruised bananas and coffee while you were whisked away to meet the band.  My apologies as I know you didn't exactly enjoy your time spent with one band member but there can only be one true loser in my story - me! Oh, and BTW I'm sticking with the Italian shoe bit. |

Hahahaha That is a fine fine story. A very sad and tragic one also. (I enjoyed the first rendition) but I do like the current rendition of the Moth on the run. I will do what I can to not let the she-devil lead me to any trouble in Boston, we'll have Charlie's level head to back up the effort even if I have too many Martinis. The shoes were a great touch. I know for a fact that in my 75 story I was wearing "earth shoes". It's not a source of pride. Holly you should be ashamed..........  Darin |

Up next...back stage, coffee and the bananasHa ! I totally missed a few of these. My favorite recollection of that night was TM giving the finger , smiling, enjoying the Loco encore without ever making eye contact with the not so friendly security person.  At the end of the show Ian gave the "fuck you" gesture to someone in the crowd (Mothith thought it was because they popped a balloon ) but it left a bad taste for me. My girl did get a guitar pick from Martin and he smiled when I lifted her up and down for acknowledgement. Parental obligations made it impossible to hang around backstage with TM, Holly, Ken and Fingas and regret we haven't been able to hook up again. TM has told a great story and is 100% accurate. Dan |

TM thanks for 'fixing' the story. You...Monkey, you! TM and the security guard were giving each other threats just with body language, showing each other their fists and flexing their muscles. Awkward...LOL.
Dan was I wrong with the balloon thing because Kenny told me that's what it was. The kid grabbed it and popped it most likely to have as a souvenir. IA was pissed and the kid kept saying, "I'm sorry" but it didn't help the situation.
Since we are saying what we were wearing for shoes...I wore a pair that got to be worn like twice...at the time we had Kenny's cousin for a roommate and he had a girlfriend who was a real prize package and always rifling through my things, I am pretty sure she stole them. But they helped me run fast (see pic)
My backstage pass is now a wrinkled mess. I never keep it in a good place. I know it's in a box of stuff but...this is where you organized Tull collectors amaze me...I never seem to be able to be organized. Jen was over one night I got the pass out to show her Tull fan husband (then boyfriend) and she saw how it was tossed carelessly in a box and said something like, "Uh, you might want to do something with that.." I'm usually neat but for some reason my music stuff is a shitstorm.

Also re the pass, that mess-terpiece almost earned me four hundred. Kenny telling me to "do it! That's a car payment for you" haha. Well 8.5 years later car is paid off and sold to someone else, but I still have my pass (where the heck is it, anyway?) lol...
Lastly, I know all you guys know Mothie is not always up on her ability to pick up humor and sarcasm or whatever...but is that you remember it with James? I remember him saying to both of us, "Oh so do you just want to come in and say hi or something?" "Umm, let's think about that for awhile...okay sure" Ok, we didn't say that last part...but man it's 3 am I need to get back to sleep.

Yes, TM is totally accurate with his tale of woe... while waiting patiently outside by the tour bus for TM and Mothfairy, me, my cousin Augie and his wife Debbie spy Martin, Andrew, and Jonathan heading to the tour bus. Andrew happened to be loaded for bear. My boy walked out with not A beer, but 4 ice cold Becks in hand, and he wasn't sharing. People start to gather for a chat and autographs. I'm hangin back to take it all in when I to glance in the direction of Mr. Giddings. There's the "Becks-Man" signing cousin Debbie's newly acquired t-shirt. Nothing wrong with that, except she happened to be wearing it. Yes, that's right, our slighty perverted keyboard player signed Debbie's t-shirt over her left breast. She then rejoins our group PROUDLY displaying her new found celebrity "boob-script". Augie and Debbie are no longer married.. whether Mr. Giddings was a definite factor in their demise will always remain a mystery. Great story TM..thanks for the memories!!!

Dan Nice picture. lol. The issue with security was that our first row seats were actually quite far away from the stage. There was this wall in front of us perhaps for photogs? Past experience is that the ushers invite everyone to the stage during the encore so I assumed we were supposed to hop the wall and go up to the stage. Well I was wrong, and the asshole started to give me some crap. I just told him last I heard he wasn't apart of the show and to go sit down. |

He ended up signing my pass which I just happen to have right here:  Maybe it wasn't as wrinkled and torn as I thought. |

There was something like Guest After Show wasn't the highest you could get right? It's not like a true backstage pass. Or like VIP. We were GAS.
Yeah, he tried to do the same thing to me but without the pass...that's some of the part I left out of the original story. Conversely, I went to Ian with my pass on my chest and he became flustered because he couldn't sign it like that, I wasn't thinking, Ha!
I am pretty sure I remember you asking James for his signature but I don't know why I didn't. Was I just like, "Oh, I'm gonna wait for bigger and better things, thanks." Haha.
At PPAC we were able to go to the stage for encore, except for the time you had those really close seats because they filled that space in with chairs.
TM, Yeah I'm pretty sure that's the extent of the conversation, "You want to go say hi" and the other part and I don't want to reopen any wounds so...haha.
Yeah, AG left then we go outside and all of a sudden he's out there? haha. I didn't see Martin or Doane, but talked to Martin the next night and another time. Never Jonathan Noyce but also never Doane. He has always managed to evade me. He never seems to be hanging around, I mentioned this to him one time and I just had to check because I didn't remember how he responded...he said, "Probably because it takes me so long to dry off after the gig!!!" haha.

Post by Mothfairy on May 25, 2013 14:46:42 GMT -5
We are remembering different things and didn't I explain the homeless man in the other thread? I have to go through this again. Oh wait, just like TM I have found the copy and paste option. haha:
The next day at that show, we had extra time before the show and ended up in this dive in Providence with a huge albino snake and blaring music. I could hardly drag TM out of there when it was time for the show. I do not like to be late for the show. Anyway, back to Prov, I yelled in the bar and said, "Monkey! Fingas! Let's GO!" During the show I was talking to this guy next to me telling him about the night before and TM and his friend were a couple rows ahead in the front row. His friend said for me and Jen to go over with him, so he tried to help me over this rope, we smashed heads and I fell down and got yelled at by an usher to stay in my seat. So after the show, when we were waiting around, a guy came up asking for money, the homeless guy. TM said something like "Hey man, why are you doing this? Can't you try to get yourself together?" the man was saying he was trying to. He didn't seem in bad spirits because of it all though, that's when he started to play the harmonica and then I started to dance, and TM's friend also joined in dancing in the street, it was pretty awesome. They talked to him for a little while longer then the homeless guy stuck out his hand to shake TM's hand but just then TM got distracted because he thought the band was going to come out, and he got excited, ignored the homeless guy's handshake and almost plowed through him. Someone said a little bit later, "You blew off the bum!"
There it is. The Providence staff said, "Why don't you guys just go home? The band has left" We said we're not going anywhere. That's when he said, "Wow...you guys ARE dedicated."
Martin came out and we formed a line. When it was Fingas' turn to talk to him, you came barging in and asked Martin a question. Later you said, "Wow, I just came up and totally interrupted you" My realization of Martin=nicest Tull member ever. No frowning and doubting my ability to be a Tull fan, no gropey hands and suggestive remarks. Just genuine kindness. Loved him. Got a new riodent a few weeks later, named him Martin after him. That thing turned out to be an jerk though. Beat up the other riodent, tried escaping and bit Kenneth.
ETA Always rates high when a guy compliments your clothes too and Martin said he liked my jacket. When I told this story to someone here they asked what it was, so just letting everyone know it had fake fur on the collar. So if you want to score big with Martin wear some faux fur collars to the shows.
