In August _some_ PBS stations will carry a concert by the recently-reformed Electric Light Orchestra. Unfortunately, my local station AND my satellite provider have chosen NOT to air it. Could I get some Doper to check his/her local PBS station’s schedule for August and let me know via e-mail? Thanking you in advance! ---

I’ll keep an eye out but haven’t heard about it here. If it’s a reformed group my guess would be ELO pt. II as the recent ELO album was really Jeff solo. I have seen Pt. II live, a few years ago in Tucson and they were good but it wasn’t the same. I bet you’re the only other person on the board who has all the original group albums on vinyl 😃 I think I have a The Move album somewhere too. ---
