The only band in existence that can rock a flute.
Jethro Tull is fucking awesome.

Get the Jethro Tull mug.
A prog-rock band formed in the late 60's that had huge hits in the 70's, won a heavy metal grammy in the 80's, and still rocks and tours in the new millenium. Always known for complicated lyrics, rhythms and time signatures. Jethro Tull has mellowed over the years, but they still pluck a mean mandolin. Fronted by Ian Anderson and Martin Barre. Unfortunately this important group has been totally ignored by the brown-nosing hacks at the lame-ass "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame".
Tull (Jethro) = Jethro Tull

Hippie: "Man, Jethro Tull was bigger than the Beatles and the Stones back in the day and they're NOT in the fuckin' Rock Hall of Fame!?"

Stoner: "Yup, but who the fuck cares. The Hall of Fame is a complete sell-out, lame-ass, ass-kissing, political, bullshit institution, man."

Hippie: "Man, yer right, I guess. Hey, don't bogart that joint."

the best fucking band ever. im a cajun from Louisiana state but this band FUCKING GETS IT!! they may be british but they were the evilest, most cynical and realist metal band than even Black Sabbath. only pussies listen to black sabbath. real men listen to Jethro Tull. (a band with obvious intellectual ability, and very politically incorrect and street smart. what other band could write a song dedicated to a pedophile named aqualung, all the way back in 1971? absolutely brilliant people.)
Jethro Tull, hmn where to start? they're certainly more preferable than black sabbath. and they have a kickass flute player who knows what he is doing. and they talk about the degeneracy of post-ww2 western civlisation.

A progressive-rock band fronted by Ian Anderson-the best one-legged flute-playing sheep farmer in rock and roll today!
Teacher: Class, today we will learn about Jethro Tull.

Class: You mean that boring prog-rock band my dad likes? The one fronted by a sheep-shagger who plays the fucking flute?

Teacher: No, the guy that revolutionized agriculture in Europe in the 18th century by rediscovering techniques used by the Chinese in the 6th century.

Class: Oh, THAT Jethro Tull!
