I suppose I am a pasive fan. Other than Jeff Lynn (e?), I couldn't name anyone in the band. I don't own any ELO, but I enjoy the stuff that makes the airwaves.

Mr. Blue Sky
Livin' Thing
Down Bring Me Down
Evil Woman
Sweet Talkin' Woman


I'm certain there are plenty more I enjoy. They just escape me right now.

St. George was Turkish and apparently killed a dragon in Libya!

St. Patrick, on the other hand, was a Roman guy who was born in Scotland, which I suppose gives him more connection with Britain... so we prefer to celebrate him...

Ah, well I looked it up and it said Turkey the first time, I looked it up somewhere else now and it says Palestine. I'd always been told he was Spanish actually!

Safe to say he wasn't from England.

BY THE WAY, I put up the Britain thread (a very open ended one) in the polls forum. Go vote on its UK-ers, and make us look even cooler than we already are!
