Acoustic tour
Verfasst: So Sep 24, 2006 3:42 pm
In an interview in August Ian let shine through that the orchestral concerts will not be the last concerts he does this year. Now it's confirmed! Ian and Martin will do an acoustic tour. Maybe like A Little Light Music? I don't know, for me it's a new format.
The facts I know:
-The line-up will be Ian and Martin, along with a violinist (Lucia or Ann Marie?).
-Andrew will not be present.
-Doane most likely not too.
-Jon is unknown (my feeling says 'no').
-Ian and Martin take some 'guest' with them.
I've heard Ian contacted two other musicians to go with him.
My guess about the guests: some ex-Jethro Tull members, or other 'Itallian-Convention-people' like Tinkara?
Almost a year ago my house rocked by the music of Tinkara, who I discovered by then. Yes, indeed, I've heard of her because the attention Ian gave her on the official website. I wondered if they were still in contact, but now I know they are. Last December I already was surprised that the music before the orchestal concert in the concerthall included some Tinkara. But after that it was silent.
Until this weekend: Tinkara is on the convention in Italy. After reading that, I remembered a sentence on her website:
"New concert performances with Jethro Tull and/or during orchestral and solo outings by Ian can be expected in 2006."
Did I discover a 'guest' of the acoustic tour?! Would be fantastic!
Their will be UK dates, but the concerts wich are confirmed:
24/11/06 013 Tilburg, Netherlands
26/11/06 Konserthuset Malmö, Sweden
27/11/06 Amager Bio København, Denmark
28/11/06 House of Culture Helsinki, Finland
Almost every newspaper in The Netherlands wrote that Jethro Tull comes to our country! Bought my tickets yesterday (23 september, the day they went on sale). What do you think? Already nearly sold-out! In a few hours all the seating places were gone (80% of the tickets), just some standing places are on sale.
