Dude, they did NOT bring ANYONE down.  Not him or her, or even Bruce.  They brought everyone UP!!!  The only thing Jeff Lynne’s E.L.O. brought down was the HOUSE!!!  bi the gay, what IS E.L.O. without Jeff Lynne anywaysz?Â
Man, what a fcuking show. Â It was ELECTRIC!! Â There were LIGHTS!!! And, woah, how rad was that ORCHESTRA!!! Â Truth in advertising! Â 18 songs came and went in a cool 90 minutes, but I was ready for more!
They didn’t even tackle a lot of the hits on their greatest hits, which I used as my homework for the past few months, but you want to leave your fans wanting more, right??
Hard to say I was even a fan a few months ago (most of my Jeff Lynne love came from his work as a Traveling Wilbury), but after doing that homework, I was like – woah, I know ALL these songs, and they’re ALL amazing!
You probably don’t even think you’re a fan either, but what you don’t know is that you are. Â You either grew up with this music or you’ve had it shoved into your ears over the past decade Â
Remember this VW Beetle ad? Â
Now you do, and now you remember how awesome that ad was, and how much of a fan you are of that song, which means you’re a fan of E.L.O. Â They may not have sold a single VW bug without ‘Mr. Blue Sky’!!!
or what about the trailer for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind???Â
THAT WAS SUCH A FCUKING AWESOME TRAILER, remember? Â And the trailer is kinda how I remember the movie, and it probably wouldn’t be as re-memorable without E.L.O.!! Â YOU LOVE E.L.O.!!!
E.L.O.? Â More like E.L.F(ucking).O.!!!!!!!!!!
