You might recall one of our giveaways in which we awarded one lucky ShockYa reader with Jethro Tull’s newest cd, “Thick As A Brick 2.” Now, we’re giving away another cd, but this time, that cd will be signed by Ian Anderson himself.

Below is the picture of the signed prize. If you want it, make sure to get on your Twitter account and do the following:

Follow us @Shockya. Then tweet us the phrase, “I need Thick As A Brick 2”! You have until May 8 to tweet, and you can tweet once per day. We will randomly pick the winner, so make sure to check your Twitter inboxes!

“Thick As A Brick 2” is the first cd from Jethro Tull in over 30 years. The sequel not only follows what “Thick As A Brick” character Gerald Bostock (who would be 50 this year) would be doing today, but will also be a commemoration of the first “Brick.”

“Brick 2? will explore the various paths Bostock could have taken from his schoolboy past. The album will have various alter-ego characters with song-section identities, shedding light on the different opportunities and futures Bostock could have.

“As we baby-boomers look back on our own lives, we must often feel an occasional ‘what-if’ moment,” said Anderson. “Might we, like Gerald, have become instead preacher, soldier, down-and-out, shopkeeper or finance tycoon?…And those of more tender years – the social media and internet generation – may choose to ponder well the myriad of chance possibilities ahead of them at every turn…..”

Good luck to all who enter!
