Luckily I checked these videos before paying almost 60e for similar concert. I thought orchestra would work pretty well with JT songs, but it seems to be just as bad as it was with Metallica and Kiss.

Well, freedom in music taste is a brilliant idea, otherwise music will be boring to many!

And obviously I like too much orchestral adaptation of many pop or rock music.

@TheFrickinPope: If you haven't bought the album yet, check out the one they did with the London Symphony. I think perhaps the reason people don't like this version is because Anderson changed the tempo. With the London Symphony the band stayed "true" to the original.

@Nordis: You didn't like the orchestrated version of Enter Sandman? I thought that was pretty cool.

I have been a fan of Ian Anderson and Tull since the late 60's, and I can see why some people may not appreciate this specific orchestration. But I would encourage you to listen to the version the whole band recorded with The London Symphony Orchestra. (There are a few postings on YouTube) I have all the Tull albums and that ranks among my favourites!
