I'm a bit disappointed its just Hyde Park for now, was hoping for a more Northern one. My Dad won't want to do a full day in Hyde Park standing miles away, but would do a stadium or arena up here. Maybe a couple of extra dates elsewhere before this one as it sold out so easily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very surprised if he didn't do more UK dates in the run up to this, or maybe one big one in Birmingham. Their US tour will shortly end; can't imagine there'll be nothing else before BST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago For what it is worth, had heard chatter it'll be a spring arena tour for Jeff Lynne, closing with two arena shows in Birmingham around mid-May. No idea how much salt there is to be had in this theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've both said that the Co-Op would be perfect due to the sound quality being so good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I'd be shocked if he didn't do the Co-op. Honestly, if he wanted to reduce touring issues, I'd just book two-night stands at Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham with room for a third if needed. Anyway, just bits I've heard on the grapevine. Spring and arenas all I know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring and arenas all I know! One thing worth considering - the press release for BST made a point of it being their last ever show, but not that it was their only UK show - which I'm sure they would have done to ensure maximum ticket sales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for glastonbury. If not, Werchter. This'll sell out before those on sales. He might be at Werchter tho, which would be great if I'm there.
