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!

Jethro Tull invented the seed drill; he was part of the group that created scientific farming as we know it. Also an overrated prog rock band with an electric flute player.
When the history teacher told us Jethro Tull invented the seed drill, we laughed like crazy.

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."
Stoner: -----
