Re the Jethro Tull video in the Feb. 9 issue:

“I looked at the Jethro Tull video and had a flashback to grammar school. Sister Claire Eileen entered me in a music competition for the tuba when I was in 6th grade…. The professional in the Tull video criticized Ian Anderson for his flat fingering. Holy shit! That was the same mark against me when I was judged. It was the only mark against me but enough to lower my grade to a B. I was mortified. WTF! Flat fingers!” – JM
