This handbill has surfaced from a long held and recently unearthed collection of vintage San Bernardino concert material! The original handbill was produced to promote Jethro Tull at the legendary Swing Auditorium on April 24th 1970. Their album “Stand Up” had been released and quickly reached No. 1 in the UK charts. The band was breaking through in the states during this era and headlining shows on their own.
Ian Anderson by now had established himself as the group's leader and songwriter for most of their material. This is the FIRST example of this Swing Auditorium issue we've ever auctioned! The venue - a now defunct 10 000 seat arena in southern California - quickly became historic for housing some of the most amazing concerts throughout the sixties & seventies including Louis Armstrong The Grateful Dead Ike & Tina Turner Elvis Presley and many more.
