I've seen Jeff's original ELO band 5 times, got all records, so serious fan! Now seen 3 tribute bands and this is the best by far. Seen them at Flowerpot, Derby (nice-sized pub room) and Woodford Halse nr Daventry, J15 M1 Northampton (nice new friendly venue), both serve real ale and food, and hope to see this band again once over seroius car crash.
They do ALL the hits and sound like like them. The other 2 bands seen are Original Former Members (formally ELO II until Jeff's legal action stopped them) led by Bassist Kelly Groucutt, Mik Kiminski and Loius Clark etc are superb (saw in Nottingham with a 100 strong choir was amazing) BUT they add in their own compositions and sell new CDs which I don't think is right.  Magic - Kind of ELO are also good sound but lead singer does not play guitar and acts like he's cabaret/cruise singer, so best viewed with eyes shut. They also do Queen but on night we saw them at Stables, MK he had voice trouble, so he did ELO in 2nd half.
Check out ELO Experience, very nice chaps who told me they have strings at larger venues. Keep their music alive!

watched ELO Experience at Aylesbury, 26th June 2009.
Excellent show. I am a guitarist but I was MOST impressed by the standard of the drummer! Wow! He didnt even seem to break sweat but his drumming made the evening for me.
 Well done the bass player for mastering the programme so quickly following the sad loss of your other bassist.
 My only negative observations were that I would like to have seen more interaction between the band and the audience and slightly more volume for the cellos which is such an important part of the ELO sound.
Overall a brilliant tight sounding and well rehearsed band. Thank you for an enjoyable evening
