Loved Jeff Lynn in the Wilburys.

Some recent youtube vids of ‘livin thing’ were on point and sounded great.

Grats on getting to see ELO live.

I didn’t even know Jeff Lynne was touring again. He’s one of my favorites. There is no other sound like it. I like seeing all the real string players. But Bev Bevan is missing. The keyboard player I think is original.

All of the Traveling Wilbury’s were/are great showmen.

All of them.

The greatest supergroup ever formed.

I was there too!! Jeff Lynne has “lost a step or two” but the sound is still great...no profanity, no nudity, no crappy lyrics, just great music. One of my ‘bucket list’ items now fulfilled...ELO

I saw Journey last year. They still got it, too.

“I can’t get it out of my head!”
Fun Fact; The album cover of El Dorado,( ELO’s second complete album)
Guess who designed the album cover using Dorothy’s sparkly red shoes?....Sharon Osborne, Ozzy O’s wife. Yes, it’s true!

Were they still breathing?

Were they in wheel chairs, or just using canes?

(just kidding)

Very cool! Saw them in Phoenix in the early ‘70s, theater in the round with a revolving stage, it was great. Loved “In the Hall of the Mountain King” live.

I saw ELO in Annapolis in the early 80s. They did the Time album along with other favorites. Started the show with the Robot coming out on stage and doing the Time album intro. Leading edge tech for that day.

I was really surprised when I discovered awhile back that ELO never had a single #1 single in the USA. I believe that they did have something from movie in the UK that hit #1.

They had some of the most awesome songs. They deserved many # 1’s.

“Midnight Blue” was always one of my favorites.
