Eric Clapton

Out of this world

Classic

Awesome concert with Mark Knoffler. This was the best concert I ever attended

I was Eric's bodyguard along with Alfie O'Leary at that concert,it was fantastic seeing all the African bands and seeing Joan Armatrading along with Labi Siffre, a great night and after the show,I was lucky enough to accompany Joan to the Palace of King Maswati for an impromptu performance by Joan,also the King had a fantastic parade at his hunting lodge with hundreds of warriors gathering for the festivities for the King and guests. A trip I will always remember.

It was unbelievably good. The venue under the stars made it an intimate setting and Eric’s performance surpassed expectations. Unforgettable night!

Greatest Clapton Concert.

I think they were so high they could barely play, There may have been about 300 people there total.

Never thought that Clapton would play in Gabs.

An epic experience!

Perfection :)

Very short concert, we missed a word such as "Good evening" or "Hi".

clapton technically brilliant: but you would hope so wouldn't you, especially when he was playing songs he can play in a coma.
I hesitate to say that Clapton did in fact seem comatose, that would be crass. But he showed no passion for the music and no interest in the thousands of people who had paid a lot of money not just to see him but to pay homage to him as indeed I, a fan for fifty years, was doing.
Rock and the blues is supposed to be visceral. It's supposed to hit you in the belly until it hurts, but you want some more,worm its way into your brain until you go crackers from exultation, joy, anger and that old stand by passion.
I felt I had a right to expect that. We saw signs of it from Paul Carrack's contribution. He showed it was possible to play well worn material as if you mean it, and from Chris Stainton.
Things were made far worse by the quality and quantity of the sound
. I've rocked out more mooching round the supermarket to the musak

I didn't want to go home with my ears bleeding but this is supposed to be rock and roll

Such high hopes for such a legend however he appeared to be on auto pilot and although technically good had no stage interaction with either the audience or his band of musicians. A go through the motions, take the money, not even a thank you and move to the next venue. Less than 90 minutes and an encore where Paul Carrack did the vocals. £68 for a jam session. A big rip off Eric!!

really disappointed with EC no interaction with the audience never said good evening, good night, thanks for coming ,didn't introduce the band NOTHING , good to see Paul Carrack and Andy Fairweather Lowe

Great venue, great concert, but I just thought it ended a bit abruptly. Another couple of songs for the encore would have been good.
