How does someone named Jethro Tull become rock star?

Is this a old people thread?

Come to think of it from '75 to '79 I was in a herb induced coma, so I literally did miss that part of the 70's. ;)

LOL. FJJ made me think about Owen Wilson's line in Armageddon about Tull.  
 
OLD PEOPLE! OOh I'm in the wrong place then.

Tull was an agricultural pioneer and the inventor of the seed drill. Jethro Tull was born in 1674.

That's fitting, a lot of people that listen to Tull are definately into some sort of agriculture and seeds are a problem. ;)

I guess it has something to do with how you think of it, but, to me, seed drill has sexual connotations. Somehow I think that didn't escape Mr. Anderson's attention, but I'm just guessing here... Or, maybe my mind's in the gutter.

Olie..I was in a '70's' band..I got sacked from them and let me tell you they didn't play classics..they played all the dross and crap that was in the charts in the UK..and I mean bottom of the barrel for 80% of the songs.
I did it for the money only..it was bloody hard work for me.
I once said to the singer 'why don't we do some Motown'  his answer..'we don't 'cos it's crap' I told him to get a musical education!
Now a Motown covers band..that is to die for!!

terryc,  
                  The more that you tell us about that bunch the more it seems that you are better off with out them_____
 
 Now you can pursue what better fits your own  musical inclinations.

Ben, It wasn't Ian's mind that was in the gutter but his love was in the sink!

I bet the schmuck never saw The Commitments, one of my all-time favorite music movies.  (HIGHLY recommended for those who have not yet seen it.  Follow the formation, trials and tribulations of a Dublin Soul band).
 
Bill, tgo

Bil I have a great Idea. The next time we both are attending an Alembic-Festival, let's put together a Mowtown set. That would be a BLAST!

I recommend The Commitments too; very cool movie!
