Jethro Tull
Second row, balcony, right side. $37.50 (somewhat expensive). I don't recall the opening act, if any.
I sat next to some kids from Chicago. They had seen Tull the night before. They were disappointed that the band didn't vary its set from night to night. I guess they were jam band fans. They also liked to dance, but all the old people in the audience didn't, so they had to convince security not to hassle them for dancing in the aisle.
This was the Roots to Branches tour. I like the album a lot, but I'm not sure if I was a fan at that time. Probably not, since it had only been out for a month and a half. The first set was mostly later period stuff, while the second half was mostly early work. I loved that. It was the first time I'd heard much of it live, and I love the early stuff - Stand Up is one of my all-time favorites.
A Medley (And Further On/Flyingdale Flyer/Protect And Survive), Roots To Branches, Rare And Precious Chain, Out Of The Noise, Valley, In The Grip Of Stronger Stuff, At Last Forever, Dangerous Veils, Beside Myself, Aqua-intro/Aqualung/Aquadiddley, Nothing Is Easy, Bourée, We Used To Know, In The Moneylender's Temple, My God, Misère, Fat Man, Budapest, Wounded Old and Treacherous, Locomotive Breath, Jump Start/Dambusters March/Thick As A Brick (reprise)
I think that the "Aqualung" bit ended the first set.
