Mystic Slipperman Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) Any Tull fans who have seen this Rush tour. I have a question!!!!! Which version of "Thick As A Brick" did they play over the PA during Intermission? It was kick-ass!! Was that Bursting Out? Or Madison Square Garden 1978? I wanna go buy the damn thing!!!

Mystic Slipperman Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Just listened to MSG 1978 on Youtube and I THINK that's the one. Does anyone know for sure??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Interesting sidenote - Neil is good friends with Tull drummer Doane Perry. He (Neil) picks the house music - I can absolutely see "Thick As A Brick" appealing to Neil from a philosophical/lyrical standpoint. Just rambling - not enough coffee yet!

marblesmike Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Gotta love the old-school Genesis I heard during Rush's intermission and pre-show music. I think I heard I Know What I Like and Watcher of the Skies, not to mention the Tull, King Crimson, and Porcupine Tree that also gets played.

Yeah, when I saw them in Toronto, I didn't hear a song I didn't know/like! A couple Floyd tunes, some Genesis, King Crimson... The man has good taste.

Tom's cameraeye Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I have been a Tull fan for even longer than I have been a Rush fan. TAAB changed my life in 1972, seriously. I will let you know which version they play (if they play it,that is) after Monday's concert at Red Rocks. I have 6 versions myself in my library, it should be one of those I would think. Wow, Tull at a Rush show, I always knew there was a connection. As if I couldn't be any more psyched for these 2 shows at the Rocks ( The venue that JT took the blame for being closed to Rock and Roll for 6 years back in 1971...) Yeah, I'm an old fart but I can still ROCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom's cameraeye Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Did not hear any Tull on the PA at Red Rocks Monday, but if you want the best live recording of TAAB I would go with the Bursting Out version. It was recorded the year before the MSG concert and had John Glascock playing bass. The MSG show had fill-in friend Tony Williams as Glascock was ill so I don't think it was as tight, but I digress...after last night I think Rush has surpassed Tull as my fav band in the world! Any more Tull questions though, I will try to answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that I only heard Tull at the LA show, and not Irvine...different tunes most every night it would seem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
