Lynne & ELO’s Sept. 16 show at Radio City Music Hall will follow the band’s three-night stand at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl planned for Sept. 9-11.  Fans living between the two major cities will want to watch the skies Sept. 12-15.  Chances are any east-bound unidentified saucer-shaped vehicle roaring through the stratosphere just might contain Lynne along with his ELO musicians.

So far the schedule for Jeff Lynne’s ELO has been heavy on European / United Kingdom dates.  The band sweeps through the U.K. in April on an adventure that includes four nights at The O2 London.  Europe stops include Dublin, Amsterdam, Zurich and Oberhausen, Germany.

Jeff Lynne’s ELO has released its first new album of all-new music in more than a decade.  Alone In The Universe arrived on Columbia Records in November and includes the single “When I Was A Boy.”
