For those interested there are currently 3 shows out and available on various torrent sites. They are the September 10 London , September 11 Birmingham and the September 18 Moscow shows. The Moscow show for audio quality is decent probably a bit better then the other 2, but what do my old ears know. There are also many video popping up on you tube.
So far for me it does not work, maybe when I see it live in a few weeks my mind will change, but it will be a difficult challenge. IMO this just does not work, changing the lyrics to the songs is a very hard pill to swallow. Classic Tull songs are just that classic, not to have lyrics altered to try and fit this latest project. Ian is a great musician, he has blessed us with some of the finest music in our lifetimes and for future lifetimes to come. I just hope that this "tour" does not alter or change peoples opinion of Ian's legacy.
I am just hoping that my opinion changes when I do see this live.
and hell even if it does not work for me, I am sure that more folks will like than not, which is what it is all about. Everyone drinks their coffee a little different. I have seen Ian/Tull over 70 times (too many to actually remember at this point) and if this show does not work for me Ian still has a high approval rating with me. So that's not terrible but I will hold my final judgment until November 9thish.

I agree Charlie. Tull songs are classics, not to be altered to fit a specific purpose.
