The tour is called Over and Out, which could very well mean this is the last one. Or that's the new album title. Or both.

I am really surprised. Didn't think Jeff was up for another go, but I'll take it from this announcement that he's feeling strong. I clicked on the tickets option for Washington DC - said they go on sale March 22nd. VIP Presale from the 20th. www.ticketmaster.com/event/1500606DF4264B45

Kind of underwhelmed by this, I was expecting an album at least.

Well I for one am super glad that there's one more tour. I had tickets for the zoom tour which was canceled. Then later financial and life difficulties preventing me from going on one of the more recent tours and I thought I'd never get to see one of my absolute favorite bands music done live by the man himself. This now gives me a chance if they're not all scalped tickets I sure hope I can get one on the presale desperate for Boston to get two not nosebleed seats. Wish me luck. I'm waiting 25 damn years nearly for this I can't believe I might get to finally see him.

Add me to the list of those who are surprised by a tour announcement. From what I was told by the one sort of "insider" that I still talk to, Jeff had a health issue last year. I'm glad he's able to still play live.
I'm almost sure a new album is headed our way, too.

Hi hi! I just received an e-mail promoting The Over And Out tour...I thought it was a spam message! Hahah but everything's right with it, so I think that was the surprise hidden under all this time's silence, and not a new album. Of course, I didn't expect a new one as the last ones were so similar between them, but of course a new number of songs released in a studio would be good anyway. I want to know what will be the touring band!

Looking at these tour dates, it clashes with Take That. Jeff's tour starts in August and Take That's ends in July BUT... resumes in late October so those dates overlap. I can't imagine Take That playing without Mike and the gang so what gives?
Could it be that the last few dates of Jeff's tour could feature.... er..... other band members? Seeing as this is the FINAL tour and the late October shows will be the last of the tour,dare we dream?

I'm glad he's able to still play live. I'm almost sure a new album is headed our way, too. To be honest I’m a little disappointed and underwhelmed by the announcement. I’m not convinced there will be a UK Tour. There’s nothing to indicate there will be one. Or a new album. They’re usually announced in tandem. But we can hope. Still it’s good news of a sort. I just hope Jeff is well enough and up to it. And I wish him all the best with it.

My official ELO newsletter email confirms that this will be his last tour: I am praying that my parents want to go again, and wouldn't mind me paying them back for a ticket once work picks up again. I would hate to miss the Philly show! I am surprised to see this many dates listed, hopefully that means Jeff is healthy and doing well!

I've just had an email about the tour too. I was doing something else but as soon as I saw the words Jeff Lynne I had to click.
Last tour? Only America? I have many questions.

Very disappointed that no UK dates announced yet. Does anyone think they maybe at a later time ? Surely the LAST tour has to include Jeff's hometown of Birmingham and maybe London.
