Tony has said that Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull’s strict regiment of getting up early and rehearsing sometimes from 9 AM until 8 PM really helped him become a much more focused and disciplined musician. While he said the style of music wasn’t for him, he was still extremely complimentary towards Ian and the band.

I was born in 59. All I ever listened to or bought for music was the Beatles. Then a friend turned me on to 3 bands my sophomore year in high school. Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath and Jethro Tull and my whole music perspective changed. I never saw Sabbath in concert but I saw Tull 3 times. Once in August 1978 in the Providence Civic Center. Opening act….Uriah Heep! Another time I saw Tull in the Springfield Civic Center. It had to be sometime close to July 4. Someone tossed off an M80 somewhere near the stage. A second one went off about 2 minutes later. I don’t remember the song being played but Ian stopped the band mid song and something to the effect of “we’ve already been paid, another one goes off and we’re gone, got that!” Then without counting in they started exactly where they left off. I was amazed.
