Jethro Tull Announce 2010 UK Tour

Jethro Tull will hit the road in the UK in March for a 23 date tour. These shows will feature an assortment of ‘Best of Tull’ repertoire with some rare gems thrown in for good measure. Support to be announced.

Ian says about this tour “Of all the music recorded by Jethro Tull over the years, there are several songs which have rarely, if ever, been performed in public. We look forward to introducing some of this material to the setlist in 2010 along with some of the tried and trusty favourites. Martin Barre and I, along with long-standing drummer Doane Perry and old friends David Goodier and John O’Hara will bring variety and depth to the concerts with the aid of a few forgotten musical instruments currently being dug out of the rusty skip and dusted down for action. (I know I put that Sousaphone somewhere safe….)”
