As for value for the money, I only paid about $11 (maybe $11.50?) for my Time Tour concert ticket, so compared to today's prices, it was quite a steal. And Daryl and John always put on a great show in those days. I saw H & O again with a friend in that same arena in 1983 on their H2O tour- so much fun!! I understand that they perform a much shorter set nowadays, however. I was looking forward to seeing them again in Charlotte in August 2020, but you know... My parents drove 90 minutes to get me to the ELO/H & O concert while they visited with friends in the area. I called from a pay phone in the arena when it was time for them to pick me up after the show. Easy peasy. No complaints from me about the Time Tour!

The show at the LA Forum on 09-23-1981 was filmed, as was an afternoon of preliminary rehearsals at The Boggery in Solihull. There was a rumour that one of the Wembley Arena shows had also been documented and was to be aired in late December '81, but from checking television listings, it appears this was simply a repeat of the 06-02-1978 performance, though I guess even that would still have been quite the occasion as it wasn't yet something that had been seen often. According to fans who attended the Ingliston show on 12-16-1981, the back of tickets for this last minute addition to the Time Tour itinerary featured a warning about unauthorised filming, leading to speculation this was also being professionally captured for posterity (though I never found any solid evidence of that).

I too have heard the rumours regarding the filming but have never heard the term 'Pro shot'. I've probably asked this question before but if the LA forum was definitely recorded then what happened to it? Last I heard, David Arden had the footage, is that correct?

Also, if Jeff has a copy then it's not likely to see the light of day but haven't the other members of the band got a say in this? they appeared on it so they must have some rights?
