It was a British invasion of Red Rocks last Friday as Jethro Tull returned to the old haunt one more time. The show was officially billed as Jethro Tull by Ian Anderson with the Colorado Symphony, and rightfully so as the Symphony did a lot of the heavy lifting all night, even playing with out Ian Anderson at times (as seen in the opening photos below). Red Rock’s history tells many wild tales of rock lore, and Jethro Tull has one of the wildest of them all due to a riot in 1971 that ended rock music at the legendary venue until 1976. The largely older audience was far from rioting on Friday as they sat comfortably and soaked in all the hits as Anderson and company covered all the essential Tull tracks…all that while at America’s best venue – what more can you ask for?
