I know his fans will really appreciate his willingness to perform in Israel and they'll remember that he cared enough to put aside his own concerns in order to offer moral support during such a difficult time.

7. Thanks, Ian and happy birthday!
Saba Yeshayah ,   Philadelphia, USA   (08.09.06)
Ian Anderson is a real mensch for standing by his plans to perform in Israel and not being driven away by terrorists. I was first introduced to the music of Jethro Tull at Camp Ramah in the Poconos in the late 70s so Israel and Tull have always gone together for me. Our bunk used to have an annual Ian Anderson birthday dinner. Happy birthday, Ian! (August 10)
8. Ian Anderson
Warren R. Graham ,   New York, USA   (08.09.06)
I have been a big Jethro Tull fan since the late 1960's, when I was a college student, and have attended about 50 of their concerts over the years. If I needed any further proof of who Ian Anderson is, aside from an immensely talented, imaginative and unique composer and musician, his announced intention to go forward with the Tull Concert in Israel, while others are backing out of committments, certainly does the trick! God Bless You, Ian (He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays). With Admiration, Warren R. Graham
9. Send him to London next
Isaac ,   UK   (08.09.06)
The Way We Were - One of the rock classics! PS Haron - Do you remember the Summer of 72 in Israel?
10. Ian, You Rock!!!
Lauren ,   Israel   (08.10.06)
Saw Ian when they came to Israel in 2004, and Tull is still a great band. And.. So much better than Depeche Mode!!!!!!!! Kol HaKavod, Ian!
