Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson Performs Thick as a Brick 1 & 2

- Our Price:
- $12.50 - $45.00
Ian Anderson performs Jethro Tull's definitive prog-rock album, Thick as a Brick, plus Anderson's follow up to the album, Thick as a Brick 2, in their entirety. This tour will feature a theatrical production with video and additional musicians, including Ian's band: bassist David Goodier, keyboardist John O'Hara, drummer Scott Hammond and wunderkind guitarist Florian Opahle. British singer and actor Ryan O'Donnell will also provide vocals. He was chosen for his ability to perform vocals as they sounded on the original Thick as a Brick album. Thick as a Brick 2 revisits the first album's child poet Gerald Bostock 40 years later as an adult, proposing different scenarios for the paths he may have taken in life: greedy banker, ordinary shopkeeper, soldier, beggar or evangelical preacher.

view more less of this reviewThe concert was a bit disappointing. I felt the symphony over-powered Mr. Hall at times.
star this review starred report as inappropriateA bit of a disappointment to get there, and learn Maestro Hamlisch too ill to perform, but Matt Garbutt is always a kick to watch.
The show was outstanding! Great to see so many young people in the audience; sorry so many empty seats, for great fun concert. The Symphony was, as always, superb. A Great Treat! Thank ytou!
