ELO Announce US Tour

Next year after 37 years since Electric Light Orchestra's last extensive tour across the Atlantic, Jeff Lynne is planning on bringing his Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted band to the United States for a 10 date tour.

On the subject of the tour, the band released a statement saying:

“On the heels of a once-in-a-lifetime Wembley Stadium show and a European tour in 2017, Jeff Lynne’s ELO announces its first North American tour in 30 plus years produced by Live Nation.

Jeff Lynne’s last extensive US tour with ELO was in 1981. Known as one of the most iconic forces in music history, Jeff Lynne’s ELO has spent the last two years with a critically acclaimed and chart-topping album, a sold out run of UK and European shows, as well as an induction into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame.”

The tickets will go on sale at 10 AM local time on November 17th at Ticketmaster. Needless to say, I know I'm pretty stoked and am going to be trying to get hold of a ticket to what will probably be my one and only chance to see such an iconic and extraordinary band. It's not every day that ELO is right in your backyard performing (metaphorically speaking).
