Jethro Tull concert in city today

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Ianm Anderson, lead vocalist and flautist of Jethro Tull, will perform at Indian Institute of Management-Bangalore (IIM-B) cultural fest Unmaad at 7 p.m. on Friday. The vocalist told presspersons here on Thursday that the band will be without Martin Barre (guitar) and Doane Perry (drum).

On his tryst with India, Anderson said in the late 1960s he used to jam with Richie Dharma, a drummer of Indian origin. Today, Indian influence in Britain extends far beyond music. "Now, I get about 20 Indian channels to watch at home. It is not just Indian news channels even old Hindi black and white movies."

Known for his satirical lyrics, Anderson described Tull's music as not for mainstream rock audience and admitted to being surprised that they sold 50 million over the years. On his part, he first likes to please himself as a musician. Tickets to the concert, priced at Rs. 600 and Rs. 1,200, are available at the venue.
