Good show but way too short
Two sets - each between 35 - 45 minutes. A video description before each song lasting 2-3 minutes. All this equals less than 1 hour of actual music.

Jethro Tull was amazing
The sound level of the amps was a bit low at the beginning of the show, however it improved after the first couple sets and the show was off and running. Ian Anderson can still play the flute like a magician. His storied dialogue between songs about the history of the band was entertaining as well.

Ian Anderson
The show was very good and Ian is so talented. It was not the Jethro Tull of the studio or live stage of the early 70's. Seemed like a little watered down version of what I expected. First time at this venue and I was not impressed. very poor sound system. Do not know if it was the bands equipment or the theaters.Could not take a picture. do not Know if it is the artist's request or theater rules. I did not want to film a documentary for distribution rights. A single cell phone remembrance should not hurt.Come on 5 dollars for water and 15 dollars for beer when it is 93 degrees in the sun is greedy.I paid 165 dollars for two tickets and I left feeling abused.

Lacking
In the setlist there were two songs not played and maybe a third.

AMAZING!
Ian Anderson and the rest of the band were amazing, playing a host of their past songs. There isn’t a bad seat in Freedom Hill, even on the lawn, so you always have a great view. Jethro Tull jammed for hours, only taking the briefest of pauses between songs. I’m absolutely going next year if they’re touring here again :)

Jethro Tull great. Freedom Hill not so much
It was great seeing Jethro Tull but will never go to Freedom Hill Ampitheater (Michigan Lottery Theater) again. The security people were obnoxious! Kicking people out for taking a quick photo of Jethro Tull who by the way is 71 years old and the average age of the patrons was 60-65. Us seniors were certainly no threat but were treated as such. Rude security guys ruined the show!

Tull is the real deal!
every song was spot on. video clips from former band members introducing the songs was a classy touch. loved every moment of the show . . . wished they would have played just a little longer.

50 Years of one of the Legends
It was a very good concert and walking down memory road. As Ian stated it was to bad the organizers screwed up and didn't provide a video board vs a projector. Music good and very energetic. Great use of using early videos of himself doing the high notes.

Music great, amphitheater horrible
How drunk was the engineer that developed this theater? Half the audience is blinded by the sun for more than half of the show. It would have been so tough to figure out what direction to put the stage, wouldn’t it have been?
