A LIVING LEGEND AND A DAMN BEAST







Last night Alice and I were fortunate enough to see Eric Clapton live and in person, for the second time I might add, at The Arena at Gwinnett Center. We are thoroughbred music lovers and hardcore Blues fans and let’s face it…no one’s got a tone like Clapton’s and to see him live is truly a treat.

Last night’s set list went a little something like this:

GOIN’ DOWN SLOW
KEY TO THE HIGHWAY
TELL THE TRUTH
OLD LOVE
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
DRIFTIN’
NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU’RE DOWN AND OUT
RUNNIN’ ON FAITH
ROCK ‘N ROLL HEART
BADGE
WONDERFUL TONIGHT
BEFORE YOU ACCUSE ME
QUEEN OF SPADES
COCAINE
CROSSROADS (ENCORE)



For you viewing pleasure, Clapton breaks out his AMAZING signature model Martin and performs DRIFTIN’ as part of his acoustic set



Music? On the BEAST? Really??? Well, if you have visited this page before then you know this forum is THE prime terrain to tackle any and every topic or subject that we feel has earned BEAST status. Clapton certainly qualifies. Slowhand is an icon. A living legend. A DAMN BEAST!!!
