How much do you know about Jimmy? There's probably something you don't know.

Reference to Jethro Tull in Buffett song

Post by Harbour Shark »

Who here with a good memory for lyrics can name the song in which Jimmy makes reference to the group Jethro Tull? (Sure, you could Google it and have the answer in 0.13 seconds, but that would be about as fulfilling as kissing your sister!)

Aren't their songs on the radio like every 15 minutes? I'd say the Buffett song (15 Year Old Girlfriend) is much more obscure than a reference to Tull.

Jethro Tull is still good! So good that my husband and I are seeing them 2 nights in a row (8/9 Jones Beach, 8/10 Mohegan Sun).
