Off to Hyde Park today. Taking our 7 year old to her first festival. Sure she'll love it (especially as she's force fed ELO in the car!
Any of you cunts going?

Didn't know about it but would prob have gone had I known. Was a massive ELO fan when Out of The Blue came out and for several years after.
I don't know if it was cunning forward planning or not, but by adopting the massive ball of hair and large face covering sunglasses look back then, Jeff Lynne can now effectively look exactly the same now as he did then.

ELO Soundcheck is rocking. Really sounding tight.
Bring it on.

It's on the BBC red button now. Looked huge! I wonder if Jeff Lynne will tour it? Clearly a massive audience out there, and having put all that together would be a waste not to play some more shows.

I thought Blondie were shit. Billy Ocean, on the other hand, had the crowd eating out of his hand.

The full half hour of Billy Ocean here. Flawless vocals from him at age 64.

I'm seeing Jeff Lynne, but I'm struggling to spot anything vaguely recognisable as ELO.

Is Bevan still with them?
I think Tandy is?
I liked the early ELO with Roy Wood

Just Tandy I think. To be honest, I don't remember him in the original band!

Who Tandy or Wood?
Anyway, I think both were original members?

Just Lynne and Tandy... Bevan has retired and after years of legal battles, he sold his rights to the ELO name and now Jeff can use it .... Saw him at the Concert for George but it was great to hear him finally do his own stuff
