Do you like Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull?

I was listening to the radio the other day. The DJ said it was the anniversary of Led Zeppelins first concert in America. The show was in California and Jethro Tull opened for them. The cost per ticket was $3.50. Could you imagine seeing both of them on one ticket for only $3.50. lol!!

@Entwistle I agree 🙂

@Cigarguys Could you imagine seeing those two for only $3.50.

👍 yes but. I saw both of these shows at the Laurel race track. Savoy Brown never played because of chaos the second night was shut down after Ten Years After finished..

Zeppelin actually sucked at this show
It was like they couldn't play their own music. Johnny winter and Jethro Tull stole the first night while the Guess Who and Sly stole the Second night

Friday, July 11, 1969: Led Zeppelin, Johnny Winter, Jethro Tull, Al Kooper, Buddy Guy, and The Edwin Hawkins Singers..

Saturday, July 12, 1969: The Guess Who, Sly and the Family Stone, The Mothers of Invention, Jeff Beck, Ten Years After, and Savoy Brown.

Prices? 4.75 to 6.50 each night

@Gibbon Were you actually there?

Gibbon · 70-79, M

@Musicman yes I was and the 2nd night was a cold rainy muddy mess. Some fires were set using seats and Alvin Lee stopped playing telling the crowd to put the fires out. It got so roudy the police stopped the show before the last act.

I was 15 at the time
The track was 2 miles from my house

i like Michelle Tumes & Joel Chernoff

If you want to see a fantastic Tull cover act then Youtube 'Paul and Marcie Forrest' Pauls voice is near identical to Ian Andersons. If you love Tull you will not be disappointed by Paul and Marcie.
Youtube 'Paul and Marcie,The Whistler'.

@Entwistle Thanks! I'll check them out. 🙂

Entwistle · 56-60, M

@Musicman Ian Anderson has hired Paul Forrest a few times.
Tbh Anderson should hire him fulltime to do the vocals on Tull tours.
Andersons voice is shot now.

@Entwistle I'm sorry to hear that. ☹

Not a fan of Led Zeppelin but Jethro Tull is okay

Musicman · 61-69, M

@NeddyKelly My thoughts too if we are telling the truth.

Always been a fan of Led Zeppelin but it's hard to believe they are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Jethro Tulll aren't. Just comes to show that place is a complete joke.
