Anyone seen Jeff Lynne/ELO in the last few years?

I see that "Jeff Lynne's ELO" is going on tour, looks like it's Jeff and 1 other semi-original member. They are in Atlanta in July and I'm really interesting in going since this will be the only chance I ever have, but it's always a crapshoot seeing bands like this that are kind of old nowadays.
Anyone know if it's a good quality show?

If Lynne's involved I bet it's going to be top notch

Would like to see more from Eldorado and OTTD but overall not bad.
I hate that tickets look like they will be in the triple digits but I go to a concert like every 2 years so I guess I have no room to complain.

Saw them earlier this year and they were awesome. Highly recommend. Lynne still has it.

Jeff is the only ELO member. He's spent the last couple of decades reclaiming the ELO name. The rest of the band was brought together by musical director Mike Stevens. Stevens is one of the top tour musical directors in the business. He put together a large but tight group of pros for the ELO tour. I've seen them on the current tour and you will not be disappointed.
I've seen the original post-Roy-Wood lineup in concert, as well as the full band touring without Lynne. This concert tour is better than both.
FYI, Lynne didn't spend his career touring, the last half of his life has been spent in the studio as a producer. His voice is extremely strong for a man his age.

August 2018 in Houston! Show was awesome!Thinking about seeing them again next year in Atlanta or Nashville!
You won't be disappointed!

I watched "Jeff Lynne's ELO Wembley Or Bust" on SHOWTIME. It was filmed in June 2017 and released in 2018. LINK
It was a good show, and I was impressed at how great his voice still sounds. The guy has always been an amazing talent. I'd go see him if I had the chance.

Thanks, I will definitely go. For those that have seen the show in the last year or so do you remember a ballpark on ticket prices? The general sale to the public is MOnday morning so the only thing I can see now are the VIP presale tickets and the cheapest of those is like $120. Also don't ticketmaster/livenation have a reputation for basically selling out within seconds to bots and brokers then those tickets ending up on secondary markets? If I am online at 10am on teh dot on monday morning I hope I'm still able to get tickets.

With modern live production capabilities and Lynne’s approach and aesthetic, they’ll sound just like the albums.

I was also at this show - it was fantastic. Your setlist somehow alphabetized the titles rather than listing them in the order they were played, and you're missing one:
Standing in the Rain
Evil Woman
All Over the World
Showdown
Do Ya
When I Was a Boy
Livin Thing
Handle with Care
Rockaria
Can't Get it Out of My Head
10538 Overture
Shine a Little Love
Wild West Hero
Sweet Talkin Woman
Telephone Line
Don't Bring Me Down
Turn to Stone
Mr. Blue Sky
Roll Over Beethoven
Most of the songs are played just as on the record, and Lynne gives a few of the more challenging vocal parts to another member of the band. The light show is great.

Yes you are correct-I just listed the songs as I found them on Setlist.
And I also wish they had played more of Eldorado...but their popularity starting peaking after Eldorado with four top-10 albums in the US after that one. I guess that's what people want to hear.. I pretty much quit following them after Face the Music.
Eldorado (#16)
Face the Music-8
A New World Record-5
Out of the Blue-4
Discovery-5

So i just tried to buy 2 $165 tix to jeff lynne in nashville for july 3...HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. $412 total. That's nearly $100 extra in FEES.
This is a bunch of bullshite. Why in the world is there $100 feee on a couple of concert tickets.
I guess I must be out of the loop. I expected $25 extra per ticket..not $100.

Is that just the stranglehold that TM/LN has on ticket sales? Is there nothing a regular joe can do to get tickets elsewhere or do we simply have to accept to pay triple digits in fees alone?

Showtime show was good, better than I anticipated.

I dropped $905 for five floor seats in Houston. $147 of it was the "Convenience Fee".

I remember catching Nirvana for $10 in Houston.
Eta second from the top on the right
