Indoors? Figured it would be in sheds

Was it ever anyone else's ELO?

Otis!

Just a heads up,  ELO fan or not...

If you ever see this book at a garage sale,  thrift store,  (book shoppe) or wherever,  grab it.

Out of print,  rare, collectible,  etc.

Check amazone and you'll be amazed what they go for.

I saw ELO 1978 at the Phila. Spectrum.  We had great seats and they had the Giant Clam / UFO stage,  plenty lasers & fog machines...

Probably will go check it out if tixx are reasonable enough.

Space for additional NYC dates. LA too.

Pretty sure Nassau Coliseum will be added.

My first concert was a little over 40 years ago , Steve Hillage/ELO, MSG and it was a winner.

I may go. Thanks Mosthigh.

Jeff Lynne ruined everything he touched (eg Dave Edmunds "Information" record).  The personification of bad 80's synth music.

ELO and Starcastle (lady of the lake) in late 70 s

 

great "show"...;)

Jeez Thom, rough day i guess. 

I loved Out of the Blue. I'll probably go to the show for kicks. Maybe use that class action ticketbastard money if i can.

 

I was at the '78 MSG show!

>>>>Jeff Lynne ruined everything he touched

He co-wrote and produced most of the songs on Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever album.  Not too shabby. 

 

Last time Lynne tried to tour ELO they cancelled the gigs due to poor ticket sales.  

I saw Starcastle open for Boston in like 1976... they were good but a little too much of a Yes ripoff I thought.

Seeing Hillage in the '70's had to be really sweet.... was lucky enough to catch him at NEARfest several years ago with his solo band (and Miquette!) one night and then with Gong

the next night... fucking transcendent... drank absinthe with Daevid Allen after the show.... Prog Heaven!

More sterile that the original
