Surprise
- E-mails to Ian
Ever wonder what other people e-mail Ian via this
website? Ever wonder how he replies?
Well, here's Ian's selection of a
few highlights just over the last month. Perhaps some may suggest a
few too many glasses emptied of sundown potion, placed not so lightly
near velvet elbows, before composing a message on the
wall?
Ian's replies
are in brown.

Dear E,
For over 25 years I have attended 20 or so Tull concerts, walking away
with
some of my favorite memories. Ian, the band called Jethro Tull
is truly a
legend that is very special and will grow as the years roll on.
My question is this, at the end of the concerts you push out on to the
crowd
large pink balloons. The crowd enjoys the activity pushing and jumping
for
joy. It came to me that these balloons may symbolize life, or an
embryo and
the crowd is the sperm. The breaking of the pink embryo is fertilization.
So sybolic in nature the end of the "Passion Play" of the concert. I
have
seen many artists over the years, but in my opinion, Jethro Tull shows
stand
out as some of the very best tock & roll has ever seen or ever will.
I look
forward to traveling to the next venue to experience the thrills Tull
gives
us.
I know you receive thousands of messages a week, but would you mind telling
me if this is how you see it also.
Thank you for being such a wonderful person, I hope all is well with
you,
Shonna and the children.
All the Best,
Rik
Dear Rik,
The way I see it is this:
Many years ago, I bought a huge lot of discounted balloons which I am
still getting rid of.
I toss them out into the audience at the end of the show to take their
attention away from me since I am sweaty, a bit fat and balding.
Regards,
IA
