That same year he made the finals at the Edinburgh Fringe's So You Think You're Funny competition and a whirlwind of newcomer awards followed.

The ELO Experience at Princess Theatre

The ELO Experience

Behemoth of sunny, classical-infused synth-pop, Electric Light Orchestra was one of the most prolific bands of the '70s and '80s. From the early strains of 'Mr. Blue Sky', it's impossible not to become totally immersed in Jeff Lynne's cheerful sphere of Beatlesque lyrics and joyful instrumentations that are capable of tackling dark themes with wit, honesty, and total euphoria. As one of the foremost tributes to the band, the ELO Experience recreates the songs, atmosphere with wonderful accuracy and respect. Don't say: 'it's almost like being there'. Do say: 'I couldn't tell the difference!'
