Jeff Lynne’s ELO Announce 10-City North American Tour
For the first time in more than 30 years, Jeff Lynne's ELO will go on a U.S. tour that will cover 10 cities beginning in August 2018.
The tour was announced just a few days before the release of the band's live concert CD and DVD Wembley or Bust on Friday. You can see their performance of "Telephone Line" from the DVD below.
"Our audiences are amazing. It’s like they’re in the group," Lynne said in a press release announcing the tour. "We can’t wait to play for them again.”
In 2014, Lynne released the first ELO album in 15 years, Alone in the Universe. Since then, the band has toured the U.K. and Europe, and has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Tickets go on sale for the new U.S. dates on Nov 17 at 10AM local time, but American Express cardholders can access tickets starting Nov. 15 at 10AM through 10PM on Nov. 16. Live Nation pre-sale begins on Nov. 16.
You can pre-order Wembley or Bust on the band's website, where you can also sign up to get early access to tickets.
